    Grease Trap Interceptor Sizing Criteria PDF

    Uploaded by

    Yaz
    This document provides sizing criteria for grease interceptors, grease traps, and oil/water separators. It specifies when interceptors and traps are required for new and redeveloped construction projects based on the project size. It also provides formulas for sizing grease interceptors and traps based on factors like seating capacity, retention time, storage factor, and flow factor. The criteria for sizing oil/water separators is based on the floor space draining to the separator.

    1. Designation of trap or interceptor to be determined by GRU.


    2. Trap may be used where an interceptor may not be located due to site conditions.
    Grease Interceptor Sizing Formula
    GI = SC * FF * RT * SF
    GI = grease interceptor volume, gallons
    SC = seating capacity (# of seats)
    RT = retention time, hours = 2.5
    SF = storage factor, dimensionless = 1.5
    FF = flow factor criteria in gallons/meal-hour determined using following criteria:
    Deep frying and dishwasher
    No deep frying, dishwasher
    Deep frying, disposable servingware
    No deep frying, reusable servingware, no dishwasher
    No deep frying, disposable servingware
    No cooking of any type, disposable servingware

    FF = 3.0
    FF = 2.5
    FF = 2.5
    FF = 2.0
    FF = 1.5
    FF = 0.5

    Grease Trap Sizing Formula


    GT = CS * 0.4
    GT = minimum grease trap rating in gallons per minute
    CS = capacity in gallons of fixtures or sink to be discharged to the grease trap
    Oil/Water Separator Sizing Criteria
    Separator capacity = Six cubic feet for the first 100 square feet of floor space draining to
    separator plus 1 cubic foot for each 100 square feet thereafter.
