The oil grease trap is an essential piece of equipment designed to capture oil, grease, and food solids from kitchen wastewater, particularly in hotel and restaurant settings. This prevents the buildup of grease on pipe walls, which can lead to blockages and costly maintenance.
Oil and grease stick to the inner walls of pipes, forming a thick layer that can lead to blockages and wastewater backflow in kitchens. An oil grease trap captures these substances before they reach the pipes, ensuring smooth wastewater flow and reducing repair costs.
Manual, or passive, grease traps are widely used and operate without an energy source. They rely on the natural process of separating oil and grease from wastewater.
Automatic oil grease traps, also known as Automatic Grease Removal Units (AGRU’s), function similarly to manual traps but include a skimming mechanism for FOG (fats, oils, and grease) collection. This design allows for automatic collection of skimmed grease into a collector tank, reducing the need for frequent FOG level checks.
