Technical Presentation Qualification Test
Very tricky arithmetic! Note: This must be done in your head only.Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.
Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000 . Now add 30.Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000Now add 10 What is the total?
Did you get 5000?

Building a “Green” WorldTakes Everyone Working as a Team
…and seems to be the focus of every city

Household wastes drain directly into
Sanitary Sewer with no additional
treatment.
Public Awareness is the onlySolution!

But,
Commercial Buildings
Must collect and treat fats, oils, grease (FOG) solids and chemicals before they leave the
owner’s property.
Why do all major cities have a “FOG” program?

Basics of All Sanitary Sewer Interceptor Design
We know for commercial design:
It shall be UNLAWFUL for any industrial user to discharge into the public sewer:
Two Most Important!
1. Free or emulsified oil & grease over an average of 100-400 (mg/l)
2. Acids or Alkalis which attack or corrode sewers or sewage disposal structures or have a pH value lower than 5.0 or higher than 11.0
![Page 51: Plumbing Codes](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102500/556265e2d8b42aed7d8b4f77/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

1. Grease Trap2. Mechanical Trap3. Grease Interceptors4. Automatic Grease Removal Device (GRDs)5. Gravity Grease Interceptors6. Hydromechanical Grease Interceptors7. New! FOG Interceptors
A Confusing Mess!
Confusion over Names of Grease Traps
Grease Interceptors Names IPC & UPC since 2000
![Page 67: Plumbing Codes](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102500/556265e2d8b42aed7d8b4f77/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
IPC 2006 and 20091. Grease Interceptors
2012 IPC finally changes these to “Hydromechanical”
2. Automatic Grease Removal Device(there is no name for the most popular “outdoor” Grease Interceptor)
UPC 2006 and 2009
1. Hydromechanical Grease Interceptors2. Gravity Grease Interceptors
IPC 20151. FOG (Fats, Oils, and Greases) System
The confusion is IPC can’t settle on name for grease interceptors IPC/UPC 2000 & 2003 called them Grease Traps tested to PDI-101

Hydromechanical IPC-Grease Interceptors
The mechanical grease trap is often installed in a kitchen area by the sink (but should be designed away from any food handling)
Key! Flow control devices (orifices)
Serviced by the kitchen employees rather than professionals
Manufactures recommend daily cleaning due to the small size
