Preventing entry of large amount of oil into municipality sewer system
Grease, oil and fat are the top components of waste water in kitchens. Unless these are intercepted earlier, these kinds of wastes will enter the underground sewage system of the municipality. This can be an especially acute problem in restaurants, due to the presence of a lot of oily wastewater - which can get hardened and lead to a clogging of the drains. The oily things can be arrested by these and there will be a need for less expenditure in pipe opening and grease trap cleaning. All these can be avoided.
Reducing water pollution
With the help of Grease traps, it is possible to reduce the amount of pollutants that can get into lakes and rivers. The smaller traps only need to be manually cleaned at regular intervals and accumulated waste can be simply disposed off into a trash container. But bigger sized units in underground systems have to be pumped out and all the contents from within have to be recycled.
In order to make sure that drains never get clogged with grease, fat and oil from kitchen and in order to prevent blocking and pollution of municipal sewage lines, it is important for the owners of restaurants and other food preparation facilities to buy and install grease traps from various reliable stores. These also need to be given regular maintenance and commercial grease trap cleaning, in order to prevent waste accumulation and problems down the line.
