How Does AZUR Handle Grease?
As with any restaurant, AZUR has generates grease when cooking. We decided several years ago not to install a large grease trap underground because we felt that it was not the best solution. After researching options, AZUR purchased an automatic grease interceptor and obtained approval for it's installation. Grease is separated from our waste water by passing through this mechanized stainless steel apparatus. Our grease output is then logged and placed in a recycling container. Finally, it is hauled away and converted to bio-diesel fuel.
