Waste grease generated by restaurants and not captured in grease traps is being introduced into municipal sewer systems, including in the City of Milwaukee. Waste restaurant grease can and does over time, cause blockages in small diameter sewer lines and laterals throughout the system. Blockages, if not removed, are a significant contributor to sewer backups requiring extensive municipal sewer cleaning operations. The author estimates that as much as 13,000 lb of waste restaurant grease is generated by each restaurant in the City of Milwaukee each year. Eighty-five to ninety percent of the total waste restaurant grease generated is easily captured at the point source (restaurants) simply by adhering to a restaurant waste grease manufacturing plan. Waste grease is a renewable resource and could have a value of $4000 per year to restaurant owners operating establishments in the City of Milwaukee. This equates to approximately $3.3 MM for all restaurants in the City of Milwaukee. If a formal waste restaurant grease management plan were implemented, the City of Milwaukee could in turn save upwards of $1 MM by reducing expenditures directly attributed to mitigating fats, oil and grease sewer clogs. These savings to the City of Milwaukee increase with use of a proposed improved waste restaurant grease capture device. The total potential value of proper waste restaurant grease management is $4 to 4.5 MM annually. The author will attempt to show the relationship between inappropriate restaurant grease management practice and increased maintenance of municipal sewer lines. Based on the conclusions drawn from this exercise, a restaurant grease management plan for the city of Milwaukee and proposed capital improvements to the current infrastructure will be presented.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .S7765 2009 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
