Grease Summit

One unfortunate by-product of food processing is the reality that waste composites corrode pipes and sewer lines. It really is the equivalent of heart disease for our collective infrastructure body.

Beyond clogs, these byproducts also produce landfill problems in disposal. The Grease Summit agenda includes FOG education, pretreatment technologies, design and engineering technology, maintenance issues, inspection protocols and Riverside County and state ordinances.

The Grease Summit is an invaluable opportunity for waste water professionals to learn the latest environmentally friendly solutions to grease problems. There’s a broad range of non-invasive and eco-friendly solutions for difficult collateral problems stemming from decaying residential and commercial water and sewer infrastructure and industry professionals can no longer afford to depend on outdated responses.

Read what Sean McNeely of Environmental Science & Engineering Magazine has to say about the impact of fats, oils and grease on the waste water infrastructure.

Worcester, MA is cleaning up their fats, oils, and grease.
