A grease recovery unit, particularly for use in a food service establishment, for separating oily substances from water in waste food has an inlet 2 connected via a valve 26 to a strainer 24, where solids are collected. The valve 26 is interlinked with the strainer 24 so that the valve closes the inlet 2 when the strainer 24 is removed. Oily substances from the food waste is separated from water by at least one hydrocyclone 30. Water that is separated is passed out of outlet 4 and the oily substances are passed into a collector 3. Fatty substances in the oily substances are held in a fluid state by a silicon heater pad 60.

The present invention supplies partitioned water treatment systems that possess a plurality of chambers and vertical filtration units, and are operative to control and filter surface runoff water. Such systems are typically placed inline with surface runoff water conveyance system infrastructure, such as pipes, channels, and water storage units.

An analyzer for a grease interceptor for measuring levels of fat, oils, and grease (FOG), water, sludge and air having a probe which includes a controller and a sensor sub-unit. Sensor circuits include a microcontroller, timers, and sampling capacitors. The sensor sub-unit includes a plurality of electrode ring pairs coupled to a plurality of timers for converting capacitance measurements to frequencies under the control of a microprocessor in the controller. The frequencies identify the measured levels.

A device for emptying a sewer well that comprises a lower relatively heavy fraction and an upper relatively light fraction, the device comprising a lower suction nozzle with a lower suction opening for removing the lower fraction, said lower suction nozzle being connected to a pump, characterized in that at a position remote from the lower suction nozzle the device comprises an upper suction nozzle for removing the upper fraction.

A method of removing sediment from fluid flow within a storm water drain pit by deflecting flow entering the pit towards the side walls of the pit by one or more deflectors. This reduces the energy of the fluid flow and promotes settling of sediment within the catch pit. Each deflector is preferably of a concave form and may be located in a storm water drain pit bag or suspended. A removable catch basin receptacle for a storm water drain pit includes a container has a low flow outlet defining a fluid path for fluid at a first level within the container to a second level, higher than the first level, outside the container. An overflow path provides a fluid flow path out of the container at a level higher than the first or second level.

A grease trap is provided. The grease trap comprises a container having an inlet opening and an outlet opening disposed in an upper portion thereof and a liner placed inside the container. The liner forms an enclosure and comprises a liner body having an inlet fitting and an outlet fitting mounted thereto. Each of the inlet fitting and the outlet fitting protrude the respective inlet opening and outlet opening and each of the inlet fitting and the outlet fitting are adapted for being connected to a plumbing system for receiving water containing FOG and for providing the water after separation of the FOG, respectively. An inlet baffle and an outlet baffle are disposed inside the liner body and mounted thereto. The inlet baffle and the outlet baffle each surround a respective inlet and outlet and extend downwardly therefrom.
