Question 1

Grease Trap

Accepted Answer

The leading problem: objects that you put down your pipes can stick to fats as it slowly hardens.
 
As this process occurs, big chunks of fat will break off and move down the pipe.
 
Effect: This will block the machinery of all underground sewers and pumps. Universally, there is the problem of FOG completely coating pumps and the walls of sewer lines. This creates overheating in pumps and leads to their inevitable burnout.

Question 2

Enzymes

Accepted Answer

1.Protein that acts as catalyst to accelerate rate of reaction.
2.One type of enzyme catalyzes one type of reaction
3.Optimal catalytic activity on a narrow range of temperature, pH and ionic strength.
4.Not living things , no ability to adapt to changing conditions or substrate sources. Bacteria have capability of producing many different types of enzymes.
5.FOG are polymers that must be reacted with more than one type of enzyme.
6.Enzymes cleave the bond to generate free fatty acids.  Free fatty acids can combine with calcium ions to form salts that could cause clogs. Bacteria further degrade and utilize fatty acids.

Question 4

Drain Flies

Accepted Answer

Drain Flies are also called moth flies, sewer flies or filter flies. 
They live off debris in the form of a humid film on the drain sides and in the drain trap.
Drain flies, or moth flies, can be found in moist, highly organic debris areas such as sink drains.
They develop in standing water so most commonly they are seen after returning home from a vacation or period of extended travel. Usually, they disappear soon after normal household activity resumes and water starts to move again through toilets and drain traps. The few adults resulting from these small infestations can be killed easily with a swatter or flying insect spray. However, finding many flies over several weeks usually means a relatively permanent breeding site that must be found and eliminated. Ending a chronic infestation can be challenging.
Sources of Drain Flies
As with most gnats, the larval drain flies need moisture. They can live most anywhere that water accumulates for a week or more. Common indoor sites include the fine slime layer that develops along the water surface in infrequently used toilet bowls and tanks, in sink or floor drains in basements or garages, or drain pans under refrigerators. Sometimes the gray, wriggling larvae can be seen swimming in the water.

Question 5

Surfactants

Accepted Answer

Surfactants combined with hot water, allows grease to slip through drain lines. However, inevitable cooling and dilution return the grease molecule to its original form.
Soap, detergents, and degreasers surround the grease molecules. This, combined with hot water, allows grease to slip through the drain lines. However, inevitable cooling and dilution return the grease molecule to its original form. Grease is simply relocated, causing problems further down the line in drain lines, grease traps, sewer lines, lift stations,

Question 6

Greast Blast

Accepted Answer

https://static.wixstatic.com/media/undefined
The GREASE BLAST  system uses pure, live vegetative bacteria to naturally eliminate costly, slow-flowing and blocked drains caused by grease AND sugars/starches. GREASE BLAST is a culmination of multiple scientifically-tested, problem-specific bacteria, with an additional component for drain flies, to effectively treat a variety of issues. It contains natural essential oils to freshen the drains while it’s working and does not contain soap, emulsifiers or chemicals of any kind. GREASE BLAST was designed for ease of servicing, variable timing options for unique client needs and maximum flexibility for installation locations.

Question 7

Sugar and Starch

Accepted Answer

Sugar and starch caused by soda fountain syrup, beer and other alcohols, creams and sweet garnishes in bar areas coagulate in the drain line.

Question 8

Spores-Forming Bacteria

Accepted Answer

Spore-forming bacteria are so called because they form spores (shells) around themselves and go into a state of suspended animation. They do not consume waste in this state. Only vegetative (active) bacteria effectively consume grease.
Additionally, these products are often combined with surfactants, solvents, or other emulsifying agents.  
At spore state, they do not consume FOG
Needs germination phase to turn to vegetative state 24-36 hrs
Vegetative state consume FOG

Question 10

Greast Blast Application

Accepted Answer

1. Runs on 2 C batteries, so no power source necessary, offering high flexibility.
2. Ready-to-use, powerful multi-strain, 1-gallon formula that can easily be changed in seconds.
3. Completely self-contained unit designed for installation almost anywhere.

Question 11

Caustics, Chemicals and Solvents"

Accepted Answer

The products chemically alter the glycerol bond of the grease molecule, emulsifying the grease and sending it further down the drainage system and later on re-coagulates in drain lines, grease traps, sewer lines, lift stations, and POTWs. Additionally, they cause expensive damage to pipes and may pose health or safety hazards to the user.
