Why are cooking oils and grease a problem for wastewater pipes?
When many people are finished cooking, they tend to dump leftover cooking oil, grease, and/or food scraps down the sink and turn on the garbage disposal. Another common mistake is rinsing dishes in the sink with hot water to remove the grease residue left on plates. Hot water may serve only to push the potential clog further down the pipe.
Fat, cooking oil and grease are only partially soluble in water and are not compatible with wastewater piping. If poured down the drain, these substances thicken, coagulate, and stick to the drainage piping, forming gooey-gross deposits that grow each time more greasy waste enters the pipes. Whether these deposits form in the homeowner's wastewater pipes or the city sanitary sewer lines, the end result is a clogged pipe and costly repairs. These blockages may also be accompanied by foul odors, significant property damage, and even environmental harm.
How should I dispose of cooking oil and grease?
1. Collect small quantities of cooking oil or grease in a coffee can, empty milk carton, or similar container (preferably with a lid so it doesn’t pour out); optionally, it can be mixed with kitty litter, and doubled bagged; chill grease in the fridge if you need to get it to harden up.
2. Toss this item in your trash cart, or even better, recycle it at your City's Resource Recovery’s Recycle & Reuse Drop-off Center
3. Put greasy food scraps in the trash…unfortunately, very greasy and oily food cannot be composted.
4. Try not to put greasy food scraps in the garbage disposal.
5. Use a sink strainer to catch food particles.
6. Use a paper towel to wipe grease from pots, pans, plates, and utensils prior to washing.
