Grease Trap Recovery & Removal Products

The Thermaco, Inc. Big Dipper® Automatic Grease and Oils Removal System removes free-floating (non-emulsified) grease & oils from kitchen drain water flows.  Grease buildup within a building’s plumbing drainage system is a major cause of problems due to drain line blockages.  These problems jeopardize normal operations as well as create health and safety hazards within the facility itself.  Proper installation of a Big Dipper System can reduce or eliminate grease problems.  Use of the Big Dipper assures minimization and/or elimination of costly sewer surcharges and fines through efficient separation and removal of free-floating grease & oils.  In addition, the Big Dipper also helps reduce or eliminate pumping and disposal costs associated with conventional grease traps or interceptors.  The recovered grease & oils are substantially water-free and are suitable for recycling by local rendering and/or biodiesel companies.
