The Nature of Grease

Characteris.t;ics of crease

HYDROPHOBIC hydro= water phobiadear

Hydrophobic = Water-Fearing Lipid compounds, including greases, oils, and fats, are water-fearing, meaning they separate from water. Think of the old cliche of enemies "mixing like oil and water."

CQAGULATES Because of its hydrophobic nature, grease clings to surfaces that are free of water. It also tends to cling to other grease already present - coagulation. With a specific gravity of 1, water is the benchmark for measuring the density of a substance. Grease has a specific gravity of less than 1, which means it floats when separated.

FORMS CLOGS STARTING AT THE TOP OF PIPES

The hydrophobic, coagulation, and specific gravity properties of grease mean it floats on water and clings to the tops of pipes. Sugars, starches, and heavier debris may collect on the bottom as the flow moves through the drain lines (fig. 1). Layer upon layer of grease builds from the top down (fig. 2) until water flow is blocked and a clog is formed (fig. 3).

ODOROUS Grease just smells bad. Obnoxious odors from rancid waste grease build-up emanate from drain lines, sinks, grease traps, lift stations, and floor drains.

7he Make-up of Grease LIPIDS

Grease, fat, and oil are all lipid-based compounds, derived from living cells of animal and vegetable matter. LIPID5

Any of various substances, including fats, grease, and waxes, t ha t with proteins and carbohydrates con- st i tutes the structural principles A GREASE MOLECULE o f living cells. A typical grease molecule (fig. 1) consists of three fatty

acids attached to a glycerol "backbone."

TRIGLYCERIDE:

TRIGLYCERIDE A triglyceride molecule is made up of three carbon atoms joined to three straight chain fatty acids by an ester configuration.

Almost 95% of the weight of most seed oils is composed of various triglycerides. Free fatty acids compose the remaining 5%.

The technical name for a grease molecule.

Higldy stable: ChemicaIIy, triglycerides are Iiiglily stable moleciiles. They are extremely hard to break down, which makes treatinerzt mid disposal of ivasfe grease very difficicrrlt.

MONOGLYCERIDES AND DIGLYCERIDES While most lipids are triglycerides, a small percentage have a different molecular structure. Monoglycerides have only one fatty acid attached to the glycerol back- bone; diglycerides have two.

The Nature of Grease

Grease 5eparation Teehno/ogy

B The stable composition of the grease molecule must be considered when attempting to separate solids, grease, and oil. Effective grease separation technology takes into account four essential elements:

TEMPERATURE High temperatures emulsify grease. As the influent is cooled, grease and oil separate out and rise to the top. If the influent temperature is too high, emulsified grease will flow right through the separation device.

Generally, an influent temperature of below 85°F (29 O C) is suficient for most lipid-based by-products in the food services industry.

THE THREE T’ RULE OF GREA5E & 5EPARATlON: TIME,

Emulsified grease needs sufficient time to cool and separate. The retention time needed to effectively separate out grease and oil will depend on the influent flow rate, amount of surfactants or chemicals, volume, and the size of the separation vessel.

Grease 5eparation Technology

PH fietween 5 - 9)

A low pH level, indicating acidity, has a tendency to "melt" grease, preventing it from separating and moving the problem down into the drainage system. A high pH level, indicating akalinity, will "cut" grease and emulsify it (chemical degreasers are commonly high pH). The emulsified grease moves down line where it coagulates as the alkalinity is reduced via dilution.

QUIESCENCE. Any turbulence, whether ongoing or periodic, which accompanies flows too great for the device's volume, will either prevent the breaking-up of grease and oil emulsions or tend to re-emulsify already separated materials. Additionally, turbulence keeps any solids stirred into suspension.

VOLUME Volume is the most important feature to successfully trap grease.The device must be large enough, relative to the influent volume, to allow sufficient retention and cooling time.

THE BOTTOM LINE: .............. WtIiorrf srrfficient capacity, grease separation cannot be achieved.

Produ~ers of Grease

Who Generates Grease? A wide variety of commercial, residential, public, private, and industrial facilities produce the waste grease that ends up in the wastewater system.

COMlMIERCIAL AI1 Food Service Outlets

RESIDENTIAL Condominiums/ Apartment Buildings

PUBLIC Public Schools

Obviously, restaurants use large amounts of grease in their cooking. While grease and oil from fryers, etc., is collected and recycled, large quantities of grease are washed down the drains -- from washins greasy cookware to hosing down the floors.

Condominiums and apartment buildings often have grease- related waste problems. With a number of residents using only one drainage system, grease from cooking and dishwashing rapidly builds up in pipes and causes problems in the plumbing and sewer system.

In addition to kitchen waste produced by cafeterias, public schools produce grease from cooking in home-economics courses.

Producers of Grease

who Generates Grease? PRIVATE + Churches Most churches now have on-site, full service kitchens that

are used for fundraisers, charity work, and congregational functions. These activities generate waste grease and oils. Additionally, a pastor's on-site residence may also contrib- ute to the grease waste problems.

INDUSTRIAL Food processing plants discharge huge amounts of waste grease and oil. In a meat-processing plant, grease, fat, and oil comes from numerous sources, including scraps trim- med from the meat, washing of equipment, and fatty ester lubricants used in manufacturing machinery.

f?hcrtteatment at the 5ource ntenance a i Proper maintenance of a grease trap benefits everyone fiom the customer all the way to the POTW. Maintenance depends on the facility manager, so making sure he or she understands the basics is crucial.

WHAT DOES A GREASE TRAP DO?

A grease trap is designed to prevent grease, oil, solids, and other debris fiom enrering the waste stream, where it becomes a problem by clogghng sewers and disrupting the water flow in the system. A grease trap captures those wastes and contains them until they can be properly disposed of.

WHERE 1s THE GREASE TRAP LOCATED?

Most grease traps ar2 located outside, often in the parking lots of the facility. Most can be recognized by the manhole lids that cover the accesses to the grease trap.

WHAT DOES REGULAR MAINTENANCE

A grease trap should be checked periodically to make sure it is working correctly. Backups, foul odors, high BOD, COD, or G&0 levels, and other drainage problems may indicate that a trap is not Cunctioning correctly. When needed, the trap should be pumped out by a reputable pumper to remove settled solids and separated = Urease.

KEMEMBER: When it come5 t o grease trap maintenance, be PROACTIVE rather than KEACTIVE!

Grease Intetzepre: Do They Work?

Grease interceptors BREAK all three part5 of the Three-T Rule of Grease 5epa ration.

Grease interceptors are typically located next to the source of kitchen wastewater, such as a triple sink or a dishwasher. The capacity of most interceptors is under twenty gallons.

Restaurants using grease interceptors often suffer from frequently clogged drain lines, back-ups (and the related health hazards), and problems with meeting acceptable effluent discharge standards. Obviously, the interceptor is not working!

WHY? TIME

TEMPERATURE

TURBULENCE

If a triple sink (typically 40-50 gallon capacity) full of used dishwater -- loaded with emulsified grease -- is emptied, those 40 to 50 gallons of water must flow through a 5 to 20 gallon grease interceptor. With this kind of displace- mmt nfi'a, &here Cm b? k d C Oi no re:entidii rt?le.

The water used to clean dishes by hand is almost always very warm-- and there is very little time between the sink and the interceptor for that water to cool and the emulsified grease to separate. Dishwashing machines use water that is close to boiling temperature!

The sheer volume of water and the force of the flow through the drain when a triple sink is emptied guarantee that the water is turbulent, keeping grease from separating and keeping solids suspended. ____

__

The result: The emulsified grease moves right through t h e interceptor and further down the drain system, where i t creates problems in drain lines,

grease traps, sewer lines, lift; stations, drainfields, and poW5.

Grease 5eparators Mechanical grease separators are very similar to grease interceptors in size and placement. In addition, they have a mechanical "oil skimming" device designed to remove "free-floating" grease and oil. The similarities between interceptors and mechanical separators mean that they are similarly ineffective in separating grease:

-No retention time -Water too hot -High turbulence

Although somewhat effective on "free-floating" grease and oil, the mechanical device cannot remove emulsified grease. it slips through the separator and into the drain and sewer lines and the grease problems begin.

Mechanical grease separators don't work for t h e 5ame reason interceptors don't work -- they break the 7-hree-T Rule.

Mechanical grease separators are usually demonstrated under controlled conditions. The separator is filled with cool water and oil is poured into it. When the unit is turned on, it skims almost all the oil from the water. However, once installed the unit rarely, if ever, operates under those conditions again: in a real, working kitchen, the water is hot, the retehtion time is almost nonexistent, turbulence is high, and the grease and oil is emulsified by surfactants. The separator simply can't separate the grease effectively .

Recycling (De- Watering) -

Pump Trucks Recycling pump trucks are great for collecting contained, recyclable grease and oil, such as that from fryers.

When it comes to grease trap grease, however, they are less efficient. These trucks are supposed collect the water f?om the trap, separate out the grease, and then refill the trap with the "clean" grease trap water.

Recycling trucks often collect only the surface layer (grease cap) of the grease trap, leavin? behind solids that collect at the bottom of the trap. This organic matter leads to hish BOD, COD, and TSS levels in the restaurant's effluent.

--.-.T' --.:LI 1:: :'A*:, >-&p.::\:L.::: $,';L-,'<y ?--, :-

grease and oil levels in the effluent may actually increase by using these trucks. The turbulence created by the pumping action emulsifies the grease and oil in the water, preventing it from separating and sending it right back into the trap it came from!

.L u

In many areas of the country, recycling pump trucks are prohibited from pumpin? or skimming grease traps.

Severa l

Durant Road in Raleigh. Wake County citizens including Garner residents have used this facility to dispose of many i t e m s

years ago Wake County opened its first Permanent Residenrial Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility at

such as notor 0113, antifreeze, paints, solvents, cleaners, pesticides, and other recyclables. This facility and others like it help reduce the chances of hazardcus wastes from entering our environment through our landfills and wastewater treatment, facilities,

Another ongoing problem that requires your attention is grease, fats , and oils. Like many of the items listed above grease should not be disposed of down the drain. Nishandled grease can present many problems, especially in a city's sanitary sewer system by physically obstructing pipe l ines and resulting in blockages and spills,

The Town of Garner is not imune from t h i s problem. We too have experienced a high degree cf grease and oils in the sanitary sewer system resulting in blockages that can lead to back ups and sewer overflows. You can help by ncnitoring what is disposed o f in your drain.

* Pour grease, cils, and fats from cooking down the drain * Use the drain a: A means to dispose of food scraps

Do ..... * * Place food scraps in waste containers for s o l i d waste

The Town of Garner's Sewer Use Ordinance requires food service facilities a3d t hose associated with food service to minimize the content of grease and o i l s in their wastestseam, This nay bo achieved by pretreatment devices such as grease traps or interceptors that require proper and regular maintenance and cleaning. In the corning months we will be actively working w i t h these facilities t o help them meet these requirements.

As residents we hope t h a t YOU too will help in our efforts to minimize the qrease and oil content of the Town of Garnex's wastewater by incorporating t h e s e DO'S and DC?!'TS in your everyday a c t i v i t y . With everyone's efforts w e hope t:, minimize the number of blockages that result i n back ups and overflcws in the sanitary sewer system that impact our environtent and p z b l i c hcalth.

Collect grease in containers and dispose of it in the garbage

disposal, or st3rt a backyard compost pile

REMEMBER ... t n a d r a i n is not a t r a s h can and the wastes are NOT out of sight and out of mind,

If you have any q c a s t i o n s or if you have any suggestions that may be h-lpfuf to us please call the Public Utilities Department at 772-7600 or %'nc Wastewater Treatment Facility at 662-5024.

Grease Traps: Size Does Matter by John McCullouch

It was probably not long after the first indoor plumbing and sanitary sewer systems were installed that the need for grease traps became readily apparent. Like all innovations throughout human history, solving one problem (transporting wastewater away) created a new one (removing grease to prevent line stoppages). The purpose of using a grease trap is straightforward: to remove as much grease as possible from the wastewa- ter stream. Accomplishing this task, however, requires proper sizing using both objective and subjective criteria, and adequate maintenance of the trap. Determining the appropriate size for a grease trap is somewhat of a slippery slope. It is obvious that de- pending on the community where one lives dictates what particular sizing methodology is used. Several years of working with plumbing contractors and engi- neers has revealed that many systems are in use by virtue of the oft-repeated phrase: "That's not how we do it in our city!" Some codes size traps based on meals served per day, others on square footage, and still others on projected flow rates and retention times. Regardless of the sizing criteria employed, too small a trap will result in excess grease being discharged and an increase in the pump-out frequency, therefore the cost for maintenance. Too large a trap will decrease the pump-out frequency, but may create corrosion/odor problems due to the trap contents turning septic. Combine this with the relative greasy nature of the food being prepared, and it soon becomes obvious that one single objective sizing criteria will not fit all scenarios. With good maintenance, a theoretically undersized trap may perform just fine for an establishment that does not serve greasy food. Conversely, a properly sized trap (according to the local code) may not perform well at all if maintenance is poor or if the menu is loaded with greasy food selections,

The sizing criteria that the author is most familiar with, and that has served our local POTW well over the years, uses expected flow rates calculated' from fixture unit counts along with a 12-minute retention time*' to determine a final grease trap volume.

* References for using fixture unit counts as a basis for determining flow rates have come from chapters out of versions of the Uniform Plumbing Code.

** A criteria derived in our city department in 1979. It has been our municipal department staff theory, confirmed by our monitoring experience, that 12 minutes is an adequate retention time for grease to separate out of the waste stream in a well designed grease trap, to meet a discharge limit of 200 mg/L at combined end of pipe sampling location.

Each type of kitchen fixture is assigned a fixture unit count (FU) according to the schedule below:

Each Fixture EL! 2", 3", or 4" floor sink 2", 3", or 4" floor drain 3-compartment sink 4 1 -compartment sink 1 Dishwasher 4 Garbage grinder 4 Hand sink 0 Mop sink 0 Hub drains

2, 3, or 4 2, 3, or 4

0, 2,3, or 4 (Hub - depending on pipe size &what is being wasted to the drain)

A '0' count is assigned to hand and mop sinks as impact from these sources is negligible. Similarly, a hub drain receiving indirect condensate waste from an ice machine or steam table receives a '0' due to no grease loading.

After each type of fixture is tallied and the FU count assigned, all FUs are summed.

For example, if a hypothetical restaurant had:

All Fixtures FU Totals 6 4" floor sinks 24 5 3" floor drains 15 2 3-compartment sinks 8 1 Dishwasher 4 1 Garbage grinder 4 2 Handsinks 0 1 Mop sink 0 3 3" Hub drains (condensate) 0

Totals 55 FU

The projected maximum flow rate in gallons per minute expected from the total fixture unit counts is then calculated by multiplying the FU count by 3"'

*** Three is the result of 7.5/2.5. These numbers are also from Uniform Plumbing Code chapters. 7.5 is the maximum gravity flow rate in gallons per minute expected per each fixture unit count; while 2.5 is a diversity factor that projects III normal operations all fixtures within a facility are not in simultaneous use.

In our example, 55 FU times 3 yields a flow rate of 165 gallons per minute (gpm). To calculate the minimum trap volume, simply multiply the gpm rating by the retention time:

165 gallondminute X 12 minutes =' 1,980 gallons (flow rate) (retention time) (trap volume)

However, deriving the most appropriate grease trap size is a two-step process, using both science and art.

Calculating the fixture units is the science; determining if the FU count is appropriate for the projected use is the art. Some leeway may be given based on how often and how long each fixture will be discharging flow to the trap: the maximum available cold or hot water flow from the available potable water spigots; the hours of operation; and the type of food to be served.

In our example we did not give any additional 'art' credit for this site. Remember, the first step in our sizing system is based on the theoretical flow rate, and not based on the expected quality of the waste source, the type of food kitchen service. If our hypothetical restau- rant served only vegetarian food, then 1,980 gallons would likely be an oversized volume. This is where we would make a subjective decision to give fixture unit count credits. If the business was a Mexican or Asian style restaurant, then it might be unwise to reduce the size at all.

Having too large a trap, as long as it does not go septic, is much less a problem than one that is undersized. A proven oversized trap may be reduced in volume by

lowering the effluent pipe elevation, or by partially filling the trap with inert matter such as blocks of concrete. An undersized trap cannot be made larger except by adding additional volume at considerable cost for excavation and plumbing. The vegetarian restaurant may want to keep the large trap volume to increase the time between pump-outs or to lower its surcharge, and a Mexican or Asian restaurant may want to actually increase the trap volume to maximize retention time for grease and possibly decreased surcharge costs.

If construction space is at a premium for a large trap, the review plan size may be negotiated by removing some fixtures (typically remove some floor drains from non-critical locations) in the design. Depending on how your local oil and grease limit is enforced (at the trap effluent or at the property line after commingling with other domestic sources of wastewater) may also dictate how much wiggle room you may want to give the customer. The concentration of oil and grease in wastewater for a given restaurant with its own water meter and sewer tap may be considerably different than the same restaurant in a shopping center discharging to a single sewer tap and with one common water meter for all tenants.

No matter what code your POTW adopts for sizing criteria, it is always wise to inform the customer that any trap downsizing from objective criteria does not waive your right to expect compliance with the ordinance limit for oil and grease. Determining a reasonable trap size up-front is a great beginning, but the facility use and trap maintenance play equally important roles in the customer's role of managing a compliant discharge.
