Pollution Prevention

Grease Removal Devices, including grease traps and interceptors, are essential tools to capture Fats, Oils, Grease, and Solids (FOGs) before it enters the sewer system. These devices work by separating grease and solids from wastewater, allowing partially treated wastewater to flow into the sewer.

Our sewer systems and wastewater treatments plants are not designed to handle wipes. They clog up sewer systems and cost taxpayers and residents a lot of money in unnecessary maintenance costs!

An amalgam separator, defined by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is designed to capture and remove dental amalgam waste from wastewater before it enters the public sewer system. The purpose of these separators is to reduce the discharge of mercury and other metals found in amalgams into the environment.

Vehicle services facilities such as auto repair shops, autobody facilities, fleet maintenance centers, car washing facilities, and gas filling stations generate wastewater that may contain oil, grease, heavy metals, detergents, and other pollutants harmful to the environment, the sewer collection system, and the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP).
