Food Sediment Solids Strainers
'Food' sediment waste can cause drainage problems as much as fats, oils and greases. Food waste collects around fat deposits in drains, making it much more difficult to degrade. It also increases the likelihood of blockages, floods and foul odours.
Removal of food waste at source is an often neglected form of wastewater treatment, yet with the simple installation of a effective Food Solids Strainer in a commercial kitchen can effortlessly prevent the majority of their food waste entering the drains.
