A grease interceptor is inspected and found to contain accumulated grease and settled solids filling 25 percent of the total liquid depth. What action does the common maintenance standard require?

a.No action; cleaning is required only at 50 percent
b.Add an enzyme treatment and re-inspect in six months
c.Install a larger flow control device to slow the incoming flow
d.Pump and clean the interceptor, since the 25 percent threshold has been reached

Giải thích

The widely used 25 percent rule requires that an interceptor be pumped when grease and solids occupy a quarter of the liquid depth, because beyond that point retention efficiency falls off sharply. Waiting for 50 percent allows grease carryover into the building drain. Enzyme or chemical treatments emulsify grease so it passes through the unit rather than being retained, and changing the flow control does not remove the accumulated material.
