What is a commercial grease interceptor?

A commercial grease interceptor is a device used in foodservice kitchens to separate and trap fats, oils, and grease from wastewater before it enters the plumbing system. These units, such as the Watts WD-50, are installed in commercial kitchens including restaurants, cafeterias, and hospitality venues, acting as essential components for waste management. They are engineered to handle specific flow rates and grease capacities, ensuring efficient separation, odor control, and compliance with waste disposal standards. Typically placed underground or inline with drainage systems, they support sanitary operations and prevent pipe clogging, particularly in mid-volume food establishments where grease waste is substantial and continuous. The Watts WD-50 is engineered for these demanding environments, providing reliable performance in moderate workloads and supporting sanitation protocols.
