Grease blockage in restaurants

In the process of food processing, cleaning dishes... At restaurants, food waste and leftovers will flow directly into the sink and into the sewer. After a long time, they will cling to the drainage system, causing the following problems:

·        Causing unpleasant odors, slow drainage, water flow reflux, pipe blockage, affecting the microbiome of the rear wastewater treatment system.

·        Grease pollutes water sources, adversely affecting the environment and human health.

·        If the grease is not treated for the restaurant early, the cost of maintenance and repair of the restaurant's drainage system will be very high and take a long time when there is a problem.

During the holidays, the number of visitors increases, the amount of grease and fat waste entering the sewer line will be more, causing pressure and easily clogging the drainage system. Therefore, restaurant owners should immediately save the effective grease treatment solutions that BioFix Fresh will introduce right below.

Efficient grease treatment solution for restaurants

The situation of grease and fat waste entering pipes and drainage systems is very difficult to avoid in restaurants. To reduce the risk of grease blockages, restaurant owners can take the following measures:

Use safe and effective grease

Restaurants should choose high-strength, low-oxidation frying oils such as vegetable oil, sunflower oil, or soybean oil. These oils can last longer and break down less when fried, which reduces the cost of oil changes and minimizes the amount of grease discharged.

Manual and reusable grease filtration

The volume of grease consumed daily at each restaurant is not small. Therefore, the facility owner can use a special oil filter or oil filter paper to filter and clean the oil after each cooking to reuse it for subsequent fryings. This method both helps reduce the cost of frequent oil changes and reduces the amount of grease discharged into the environment.

If applying this method, restaurant owners should be careful not to reuse the oil too many times because it can affect the quality of the dish and the health of diners.

Train staff on proper grease disposal procedures

"Prevention is better than cure", train kitchen staff on how to properly handle grease, including: how to change oil, how to filter oil, how to reuse oil safely. This will help save costs and optimize the process of using grease. In addition, restaurant owners can set some regulations in the kitchen below to reduce the amount of grease entering the system:

·        Excess grease after use must be poured into the collection bag, absolutely not into the sink.

·        Excess grease in the bowl and cooking pan must be wiped clean before putting it in the sink.

·        Remove grease daily in stainless steel grease traps and grease pits when the stove is not working.

Using a grease separation tank, separating the grease from the wastewater

Grease has the property of being lighter than water, floating on the surface of the water and solidifying when cooled. Taking advantage of this characteristic, installing a grease separation tank in the drainage system of the kitchen will have the effect of preventing grease from being spilled into the drain, helping to protect the environment and avoid clogging the drainage system. There are 2 types of grease separation tanks that you can consider choosing, including: floating tanks and recessed floor tanks.

Using a grease filtration system for restaurants

To achieve the best grease treatment efficiency for restaurants, you should install a grease filtration system in areas such as fryers and grills. This system filters out dirt and retains clean oil, making it possible to reuse oil over and over again without frequent changes. This method is considered highly effective, helping to reduce oil emissions, save costs and reduce environmental pollution.

Effective treatment of grease for restaurants with microbial preparations

Using microbial preparations to treat grease for restaurants is considered the most effective, cost-effective and safest solution today. The product contains strains of beneficial fat-eating microorganisms. When they enter the wastewater treatment system, they produce their own enzymes. Enzymes have the effect of breaking down organic matter into smaller particles. Microorganisms consume organic matter for use in reproduction and metabolism, converting it into basic components such as water and CO₂. Over time, they reproduce and increase biomass, increasing the efficiency of oil and grease treatment.

Using microbial preparations to treat grease for restaurants, what should be noted?

To treat grease for restaurants with the best efficiency, you need to pay attention to some of the following issues:

·        Choose the right type of microbiological product: Each type of microbiological product will have flexible applications in many different locations, and the way to use it is not the same. If you are inexperienced, you should contact professional providers of microbiological preparations and wastewater treatment services for accurate advice and guidance.

·        Dosage and Usage: Strictly adhere to the dosage and usage indicated on the product packaging. The use of too little or too much preparation can reduce the efficiency of grease treatment.

·        Environmental conditions: Microorganisms work best in a certain temperature and pH range. Please ensure that the temperature and pH of the wastewater are in accordance with the standards of the preparation.

·        Management and storage: Regularly monitor the flow of passengers and check the treatment efficiency of the preparation by observing the current condition of grease in the grease trap or piping system to come up with timely treatment plans.

·        Do not use additional chemicals: Absolutely do not use grease treatment chemicals if microbiological preparations have been used. The chemical will inhibit the formation and growth of microbial strains, reducing the efficiency of the fat treatment process for the restaurant.
