ABSTRACT:
A tank interceptor for rainwater and waste-water has an approximately opposed inlet and outlet. An inlet compartment is disposed adjacent the inlet, while an outlet compartment is provided in communication with the outlet. Both compartments are upwardly open, thus constituting a first aperture adjacent the top of the compartment. A second aperture is provided in each compartment, adjacent the bottom, through which solid and other heavy components can pass into the internal chamber of the container. The first compartment has an auxiliary outlet below the first aperture but above the second aperture, the auxiliary outlet communicating with the top of an auxiliary conduit that has an open bottom end in communication with the internal chamber of the container at a location adjacently below the level of liquid in the internal chamber at low entry flow rates. The auxiliary outlet being adapted to allow oil-based materials to be drawn off.
