Fixtures & Water HeatersCâu 81 / 120
A restaurant installs a grease interceptor sized for 30 minutes of retention. If the connected fixtures produce a peak flow of 25 gallons per minute through the flow control device, what liquid capacity does the retention rule call for?
a.250 gallons
b.500 gallons
c.750 gallons
d.1,500 gallons
Giải thích
Retention volume equals flow rate times retention time, so 25 gpm times 30 minutes equals 750 gallons. 250 gallons corresponds to only 10 minutes of retention and 500 gallons to 20 minutes, both short of the design basis stated in the question. 1,500 gallons would represent a full hour of retention, twice what was specified.
