Solids settle to the bottom and grease rises to the top.
The liquid passes into a leaching system. Bacterial action decomposes part of the solids and grease. Solid material overflowing into the soil absorption area should be avoided at all costs. When solids overflow, they clog the soil pores and cause septic systems to fail. Normally bacterial is present from household waste unless harm is done to the bacteria from certain home care products that destroy them.
