ABSTRACT:
An automatic grease interceptor for separating grease, fats and oils from wastewater is disclosed. The interceptor includes an interceptor chamber having an inlet, an outlet chamber with an outlet and a removable baffle positioned within the interceptor chamber. A grease removal device is attached to the interceptor chamber for removing accumulated grease from the interceptor chamber. A grease level sensor is positioned within the interceptor chamber at a first threshold level, wherein an indication of grease at the first threshold level by the first grease level sensor will activate the grease removal mechanism to thereby automatically remove grease from the interceptor chamber.
