ACO Gravity Crease Separators The Need for Fat, Oil and Crease Management Local effects of fats, oils and grease (FOCs) One of the greatest drainage problems faced in kitchens and food processing areas is the accumulation of fats, oils and grease within the drainage system. Note: As FOGs cool in the drainage system they can solidify. If untreated, accumulation eventually leads to drainage system failure with potential health hazards within the food preparation area. Regional effects Drainage infrastructure blockage Reduced efficiency at sewage plant Watercourse pollution The problem of FOG...

ACO Gravity Grease Separators Selecting a Gravity Grease Separator Stage 1 Consider waste water contents Although all separators accommodate silt, it is often necessary to remove course particles which might otherwise cause problems, for example fish waste, which will putrefy if allowed to enter the separator. Such waste can be removed by use of pre-strainer (e.g. see page 43). Note: Gravity Grease Separators are not designed to accommodate output from macerators. Stage 2 Establish separator size BS EN 1825 describes 3 methods of Sizing methods contained in this product catalogue cover the...
