Grease Interceptor Systems


The ParkUSA® GreaseTrooper® is a gravity interceptor device
designed to reduce the amount of FOG (fats, oils, and greases) in
wastewater.

Grease interceptors are used in establishments to remove excessive


amounts of grease that may interfere with the proper drainage and
treatment of wastewater. Even if accumulated FOG does not escalate
into blockages and sanitary sewer overflows (SSO), they will disrupt
wastewater treatment operations and increase costs. Most local
plumbing codes prohibit any industrial user from discharging
FOG over 100 mg/l into the public sewer system.

Typical applications include commercial wastewater, institutional


kitchens, and food processing plants. The waste discharge from
these facilities usually contains high‐temperature water, high
organic loads, FOG, suspended food particles, and detergents. #BUILDING AMERICA!

How it Works
Grease interceptors work on the buoyancy principle. Animal fats
and vegetable oils (grease) are 10 to 15 percent less dense than
water and do not mix with water. Thus, fats and oils float on top
of water.

When wastewater enters a grease interceptor, the velocity is


reduced enough that wastewater is given time to cool and
separate into three layers. The grease rises to the top inside the
interceptor and is trapped using a system of baffles. Solids settle
at the bottom, and the separated clear water escapes under an
outlet baffle. Grease interceptors can also have strainers for
collecting solid debris, which reduce the amount of solids that
settle at the bottom of the interceptor.

Over time, solid and grease build‐up will accumulate in the


grease interceptor. A routine cleaning schedule will ensure
maximum performance of each interceptor.
