Fats Oils and Grease, What are they?

Its enormous volume allows very long retention times so there is a better separation of fat.

 

They are cleaned by trucks with suction pumps (Vactors).

 

They must be emptied frequently and the surface of the fat must be kept hydrated, since the lack of humidity causes the fat to solidify on the surface, preventing it from being removed by aspiration.

Some commercial detergents, on the other hand, promote the solidification of fats which worsens the problem.

5-year study, conducted by North Carolina State University, and funded by the EPA, to understand and model the formation of solid grease deposits in public sewers.

One of the conclusions of the study is the pernicious effect of commercial detergents on the formation of deposits.
