Collection of Grease Trap Waste

A grease trap collects garbage from both residential and commercial kitchens. The majority of grease trap waste is made up of fatty acids, oils, and greases (FOGs). They are containers that are installed within the kitchen sink and appliance drains and connect to the sewer system. Waste collection companies use grease trap cleaning services to keep drains clear. These traps can be made of stainless steel, mild steel, plastics, or even concrete.

Locations Where Grease Traps Are Necessary

Every location where fats, oils, and grease are present generates grease trap waste, which must be captured in order to keep the drainage system in good working order. It can be found in restaurants, cafes, fast food joints, taverns, hotels, schools, and universities. Waste disposal companies refer to these traps as grease interceptors, catchers, converters, and management devices.

Grease-trap waste contains fats, oils, and grease that degrade over time and emit an awful smell. The odour could disrupt daily operations and give a terrible impression on consumers visiting the cafe(, restaurant, or another business-oriented establishment with a commercial kitchen.

Tank Replacement is Pricey

One of the benefits of using waste disposal services is their low cost. Grease trap cleaners are preferable to tank replacements. If grease trap waste is not treated, it decomposes and produces hydrogen sulphur gas, which converts to sulphuric acid. This poisonous acid corrodes the steel and walls of the grease trap, which must be replaced as soon as possible for improved waste management services.
