Waste water occurs in restaurants, commercial kitchens, butchers' premises etc. as a result of washing up and cleaning operations. This water also contains vegetable and animal oils and fats. These oils and fats:
- build up in pipes and drains, leading to narrowing and blockages
- cause corrosion in the plumbing System
- decompose and give rise to evil-smelling fatty acids, causing foul odours
For these reasons among others, waste water containing grease must be treated in a suitably designed and dimensioned grease separator before entering the municipal sewerage system. The separator consists of the sludge trap, the grease separator itself and a sampling device.
The new version of standard DIN 4040-100 places additional requirements on operators of grease separators:
- Measures for self-testing
- Maintenance
- Inspection (general inspections including seal tightness test)
- Operating log
Our Services
- Seminars for the required specialist knowledge for operators of grease separators, representatives of public authorities (local and town councils ! *) and waste disposal companies
- General inspections (5-yearly with seal tightness tests) by qualified TÜV NORD inspectors
- Reports, advice for operators, planning offices, courts, public authorities
