Mechanism of fat, oil and grease (FOG) deposit formation in sewer pipelines

The release of fat, oil, and grease (FOG) into collection systems results in the blockage of pipes and subsequent sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs). Currently,municipalities such as Indah Water Consortium (IWK) who are responsible for maintaining these collection systems have little guidance as there...
