Grease Trap Waste Disposal and Industrial Liquid Waste Management

Grease Trap Waste Disposal and Industrial Liquid
Waste Management Services to take care of waste
disposal challenges

Grease includes fats, oils, and waxes. Food and
hospitality industries, as well as restaurants
are major contributors of grease waste that may
cause significant issues with wastewater
disposal. Grease has poor solubility in water and
separates from it at low temperature. Large
amount of accumulated grease can clog pipes and
make wastewater disposal less effective or
ineffective altogether if pipes are completely
clogged. A grease trap is used to resolve this
issue. The device separates grease from
wastewater before it is allowed to leave the
premises. Its a small reservoir which is built
into wastewater piping close to the source
(restaurant or kitchen).

The primary function of a grease trap is to slow
down the incoming wastewater so that grease
congeals and floats to the top while solids
settle to the its bottom. The cooler water
continues to flow out of the trap to the sewer
while accumulated grease and solids are held by
the baffles and screens in the grease trap.
Grease trap retains the wastewater long enough to
solidify grease on the surface from where it can
be removed by grease trap waste disposal. Grease
trap should be cleaned every two to three years
or earlier, based on its usage, to prevent
sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) due to the
accumulation of grease in sanitary sewers. Grease
trap waste disposal services would require the
use of vacuum liquid truck which only a
professional grease trap waste disposal service
like Clarence Valley Septics can provide.

Ensuring optimal performance of grease trap
Grease traps which are located outside of the
building tend to be bigger, and easier to
maintain. These also tend to clog more often in
cold weather. Proper grease trap waste disposal
is important to keep it functioning at its
optimum level. Running hot water down the drain
simply moves the problem downstream and may even
make the situation worse. Clarence Valley
Septics grease trap waste disposal services are
available for commercial grease traps of any
size, and also domestic traps.

The treatment of grease waste commences with
filtration and screening before pH adjustment and
a sludge/water separation via a dissolved air
floatation process. The solids and sludge
consisting of grease, oil and fat from this
process are dewatered and formed into a
semi-solid cake before landfilling by the grease
trap waste disposal team. The water component of
the waste is aerated until the biochemical oxygen
demand (BOD) is reduced to a council sewer
acceptable level.

Industrial liquid waste management solutions by
experts  
Industrial liquid waste management is another
challenge faced by industries and businesses in
Australia. Industrial liquid waste is generated
as a byproduct of various industrial activities
like manufacturing, textiles, paper mills, and
pharmaceuticals. It poses a great challenge for
the health of humans and the environment because
it can contaminate soil, air and water. 
7
Industrial liquid waste can contain biodegradable
and non-biodegradable compounds, heavy metals
such as zinc, chromium, and arsenic, plastics,
pesticides, and more. Phenol and phenolic
compounds are other major pollutants present in
industrial wastewater. Industrial wastewater can
also contain petroleum hydrocarbons, sulphides,
etc. The contaminants in the liquid waste will
depend upon the type of process from which it is
generated.

Clarence Valley Septics industrial liquid waste
management services use low-cost adsorbents like
zeolites, fly ash, and chitin to remove heavy
metals from industrial liquid waste. Membrane
filtration techniques like ultrafiltration can be
used by the companys industrial liquid waste
management service for the removal of heavy
metals from inorganic solutions. In
electrodialysis, an ionized solution is passed
through an iron-exchange membrane. This method is
effective for the removal of heavy metals like
nickel, cobalt, and cadmium.

Treating wastewater from pulp and textile
industry  
Industrial wastewater from the paper and pulp
industry needs different treatment methods. For
this, the company can use methods like ozonation,
gasification, and biological treatment. The use
of microbial fuel cells is a new approach for
treating wastewater from the pulp and paper
industry. Membrane separation techniques like
nanofiltration and reverse osmosis are used to
treat wastewater from textile industry.
Biological treatment with different
microorganisms, fungi, bacteria, and algae can be
used for degrading chemically stable dyes for
treating wastewater from the textile industry.

Clarence Valley Septics industrial liquid waste
management services use a variety of methods to
treat industrial waste, such as reverse osmosis
(RO), ultrafiltration, coarse filtration, and UV
light. Reverse osmosis can remove 99.9 of
bacteria, making it ideal for use a pure water
system in pharmaceuticals. Reverse osmosis does
not make use of any chemicals. Wastewater is made
to pass under pressure through a semi-permeable
membrane, removing impurities in the process. UV
light can be used Clarence Valley Septics
industrial liquid waste management service to
remove chlorine, ozone, bromine, and other
organic contaminants from industrial wastewater
