What is the difference between a grease trap and grease interceptor?
Grease traps and interceptors both operate in pretty much the same way. The main difference between a grease trap and a grease interceptor is the flow rate of wastewater that each can handle. A grease trap works well with a lower flow volume while an interceptor was made with heavier flow volumes in mind. Grease traps – Less than 50 gallons of grease per minute. Grease interceptors – More than 50 gallons of grease per minute. Grease interceptors are typically found in busy restaurants and grocery stores.
