Constructing an Eco Friendly Home

If you are interested in constructing an eco-friendly home, you have come to the right place. My name is Gerry and for the past year or so I have been learning all I can about how I can make the home I plan to build as green and as environmentally friendly as possible. I started out by contacting a local environmental green energy company. An agent from the company was able to give me some great advice which really helped me to understand the different options available to me. I hope you enjoy this blog and that it helps you to go green.

Why you should use a grease trap waste removal service

22 July 2019
 Categories: , Blog

A grease trap is a plumbing device that prevents grease, fats and oils from entering the sewerage system along with wastewater. There are many waste management companies who will remove and treat the waste. What are the advantages of using such a service?

Avoid build-up

If a grease trap is not properly cleaned and serviced, the grease will build up in the pipes, which can lead to some unpleasant consequences. At the very least, you are likely to encounter bad smells and odours, which could severely impact on your business if they reach the customers. The fats will also build up and can block the inlet and outlet pipes and can ultimately leak into the sewerage system, which is exactly what the trap is supposed to prevent. A waste management company will be able to remove all of this waste and deodorise the trap to ensure there are no bad smells in your plumbing.

Comply with regulations

Grease traps provide a way of complying with regulations that are designed to prevent the waste from entering the sewerage system. Failing to comply with the regulations can lead to large fines and other actions by the water authorities. By having your grease trap professionally cleaned and maintained, you will be reassured that you are complying with all the relevant laws and regulations. The company will also be able to supply you with the necessary documentation that will prove that you complied with the law, saving you from a lot of trouble in the event of any investigation.

Recycling

The company will not just be able to remove the waste from your site; they will be able to treat it in an environmentally friendly manner. The waste will be separated into grease and water and sludge. The sludge can then be used as an organic composting agent, while the remaining waste can be recycled as tallow. This can be used for a variety of purposes, including animal feed and soap making. The water can then be returned to the sewerage system. By using a grease trap cleaning service, you will therefore not avoid polluting the sewerage system but will instead ensure that your waste products are properly recycled.

Grease trap cleaning needs to be done for environmental and legal reasons. A waste management company will have the experience and equipment needed to ensure that you comply with the law without causing any accidental pollution.
