| Grease Traps |
A major problem in the drainage system in dwelling houses restaurants, bars, etc. is the build up of grease and waste solids in the drainage system.
While the grease is still warm it flows freely but once it cools it solidifies and eventually blocks the pipes. Therefore it is necessary to remove this grease at an early stage from the drainage system. This procedure also minimises pollution of the waterways.
The solution is the Depawater Grease Trap. The grease trap can be easily installed in new and existing waste water systems where 110mm piping is already being used.

| Domestic Grease Traps |
When the Waste Water enters the grease trap the grease rises to the top of the water level and solidifies to form a hard layer at the surface. The heavier waste solids are deposited in the perforated filter bucket which sits at the bottom of the grease trap. The handle extends past the waste level to prevent the user from coming into contact with its contents when emptying the solid Grease.

| 1. |
Filtering bucket handle extends over the water level for hygene reasons. |
| 2. |
Solids are deposited in the filtering bucket. |
| 3. |
Grease solidifies at the surface of the water in the main chamber. |
| 4. |
Perforated holes in the bucket allow the water to pass freely but, at the same time, retaining waste solids. |

| Commercial Grease Traps |
Our commercial grease traps are suitable for use in bars, restaurants, apartment bloacks and other sites where higher volumes of grease are entering the waste water system.
The Depawater commercial grease trap is a robust design that operates in three key stages.
|
|
1. Inlet Chamber
The wastewater flows into the inlet chamber where the heavy waste solids are retained in the perforated filtering bucket. At this stage some grease may solidify and rise to the top to form a layer of sludge. There is a baffle to retain any un-trapped solids in this chamber.
|
2. Settlement Chamber
The wastewater flows under gravity from the inlet chamber into the settlement chamber. It acts as a buffer zone where the wastewater will circulate by natural currents to cool the remaining grease. Then the wastewater flows into the outlet chamber.
|
3. Outlet Chamber
This chamber collects the remaining grease from the waste water and retains it in the perforated filtering bucket. The wastewater flows under gravity through the outlet. There is a baffle to retain any un-trapped solids in this chamber.
