Info
A mud trap removes sediments (sand, mud, grit, settable
solids,…) from the wastewater.
The installation of a sediment collector may be necessary in the
following circumstances and may be used together with a hydrocarbon
and / or grease trap separator:
- In garages, car-washes, car parks,... These are places where
there is always a chance that hydrocarbons might be
discharged.
- In hotels, restaurants, bars, schools, butchers, caterers,..
These are places where there is always a change that vegetable or
animal fats might be discharged along with other sediment.
- When there is a chance that sediments might enter an
intallation, causing blockage.
A mud trap or grease trap can be obligatory, please consult
your national and / or local legislation and environmental
regulations.
Operation
The water loaded with sediment enters the tank by means of an
anti-splash jet-nozzle. Because the sediment has a higher density
(it is heavier) than the water in the tank, it starts to settle
down. The water that flows out of the separator is nearly
sediment-free.
The minimum volume of the mud trap:
- In combination with a hydrocarbon separator:
- class 1 (slightly polluted water): 100 x the flow of the
separator, e.g. brand dealer.
- class 2 (polluted water): 200 x the flow of the separator, e.g.
car washes.
- class 3 (heavily polluted water): 300 x the flow of
the separator, e.g. cleaning of farming.
- In combination with a grease trap:
- 40 litres per second of the grease trap, e.g. grease trap 10
l/s, mud trap = 400 litre.
The mud trap has been designed in accordance with the DIN 4040
standard and meets with the following demands:
| Liquid surface: |
0,25 m² per litre per second |
| Retention time: |
3 minutes |
| Performance: |
92% |
All are equipped with an adaptable riser.
In the following table you will be able to check which flow rate
goes with which mud trap in which class.
