What is Trade Waste?

Trade waste refers to liquid waste generated from commercial and industrial activities, excluding domestic sewage. Effective management of trade waste is crucial for regulatory compliance, public health, and environmental protection.

Sources: Includes waste from manufacturing, food processing, cooling, and cleaning operations.
Common Contaminants: Can include fats, oils, grease (FOG), heavy metals, chemicals, and suspended solids.
Regulatory Requirements: Must be separated from domestic wastewater and managed according to strict trade waste regulations to prevent damage to sewer systems and reduce environmental impact.
