Grease Trap Requirements In Singapore

Overview of the PUB’s requirements for grease traps

General Requirements

Installation: Mandatory for all food establishments to control oil and grease to ≤100mg/litre. Exceptions for non-cooking establishments with PUB’s permission.
Discharge System: Greasy discharge must be conveyed separately to grease traps.

Types of Grease Traps

Standard Circular Grease Traps: Must comply with PUB’s Standard Drawings.
Non-standard and Portable Grease Traps: Must comply with BS-EN1825 or ASME A112.14.3.

Sizing of Grease Traps

Nominal Size: Based on BS-EN1825.
Flow Rate Calculation: Based on appliances/fittings and typical flow rates from EN 1825-2, Table A.1.

Location and Accessibility

Must be accessible for servicing and maintenance, and not cause nuisances or safety hazards.

Special Installations for Food Establishments

Floor Wastes/Floor Traps/Waste Sumps: Required for sullage water discharge.
Discharge Pipe Size: Minimum 100mm in diameter.

Minimum Size of Kitchen Discharge Stack

Ground Level: Minimum 250mm in diameter.
Above Ground Level: Minimum 250mm in diameter.

Portable Grease Traps

Compliance Standards: Must comply with BS-EN1825 or ASME A112.14.3.
Sizing Method: Based on nominal size and flow rates from EN 1825-2, Table A.1.
Accessibility: Must be accessible for servicing and maintenance, without causing nuisances or safety hazards.

These guidelines ensure effective management of greasy discharge and compliance with regulatory standards.

GREASERA DESIGNER

Our Commitment To Sustainability And The Environment

Greasera is deeply committed to sustainability, focusing on several key areas to minimize environmental impact and promote eco-friendly practices:

Waste Reduction and Recycling: Greasera grease separators are designed to efficiently capture and recycle fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from kitchen wastewater. This prevents these substances from entering the sewage system and causing blockages or pollution.
Energy Efficiency: Their systems are engineered to operate with high energy efficiency, reducing the overall carbon footprint of commercial kitchens.
Sustainable Materials: Greasera uses stainless steel which prioritizes the use of sustainable and recyclable materials in their product manufacturing processes.
Innovative Technology: They continuously invest in research and development to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their products, ensuring they meet the highest environmental standards.
Partnerships and Collaborations: Greasera collaborates with other organizations and stakeholders to promote sustainable practices and innovations in waste management and water treatment.
Education and Advocacy: They actively engage in educating their customers and the broader community about the importance of sustainable waste management practices. These efforts collectively contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to managing kitchen wastewater.

Materials And Production
Materials Used in Our Products: Stainless Steel

Corrosion Resistance

Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, which is crucial for grease separators that handle wastewater with varying pH levels. This resistance ensures a longer lifespan compared to materials like cast iron, concrete and plastic material.

Durability

Stainless steel can withstand high temperatures and mechanical stress, making it suitable for environments where the grease separator might be exposed to harsh conditions.

Hygiene

Stainless steel surfaces are easy to clean and maintain, which is essential for preventing bacterial growth and ensuring the separator remains sanitary.

Environmental Impact

Stainless steel is recyclable, which makes it an environmentally friendly option. Using stainless steel can contribute to sustainability goals in commercial and industrial settings.

Cost

While the initial cost of stainless steel grease separators might be higher than other materials, their long lifespan and low maintenance requirements can make them more cost-effective in the long run.
