Grease Traps and
Oil & Grit Interceptors
We have a range of engineered systems suitable for your commercial entity.
Below is an introduction to the different systems, how they work and what you can expect.
If you have any queries, just pick up the phone and give us a call, or send us an email. We are always very happy to help.
Grease Traps
A grease trap's function is to remove grease from the wastewater stream to achieve acceptable standards before discharging into a sanitary sewer system. Precast concrete grease interceptors are the most effective choice for grease removal, they are watertight, durable and easy to install.
Manufactured with high strength steel reinforced concrete, these come in a range of sizes to suit different applications. Trafficable options are also available if required.
Multi chamber systems retain grease and fat by allowing them to settle on the surface and allowing the clean water to pass through. Specifically designed grease filters can be added to these systems when a higher level of treatment is required
Oil & Grit Interceptors
Oil & Grit Interceptors are the technical solution for the separation of oil & grit from stormwater runoff at fuel stations, car parks, commercial spaces, contracting environments and industrial wash down bays. The interceptor uses gravitational force and varying densities of oil and water to remove oil from drainage.
Oil and grit interceptors are an effective and simple solution to separate and store grits and all types of oils from lightly contaminated storm water and wash-down water. They are required for the separation of heavy solids (sand & grit) and floating hydrocarbons from storm water or wash down areas. They are typically used in industrial and commercial applications where there is potential risk for contamination from hydrocarbon products into waterways.
The multi chambered treatment tank is installed close to the collection point (to ensure the oil reaches the interceptor before it emulsifies or pollutes the area) allowing for the storm water / wash down water to flow into the settlement chambers prior to entering a storm water lateral or disposal system.
