Trap Grease

Trap Grease is found in grease traps located at commercial foodservice operations (restaurants, hotels, hospitals, schools and prisons), Grease traps are also components of most domestic septic systems. It is made up of all elements expended through the sanitary sewer system during the course of daily business. Grease trap waste is a low-quality waste material with variable lipid content that is an untapped resource for producing biodiesel. Compared to conventional biodiesel feedstocks, this material requires different and additional processing steps for biodiesel production due to its heterogeneous composition, high acidity, and high sulfur content.
