S12 E3: FOG Problems - Who You Gonna Call? : Grease Has Met Its Match
Description
In this informative episode of The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money, host Suzan Chin-Taylor and guest Bradley Mart, CEO of FogBuster’s Inc., tackle one of the wastewater industry’s biggest challenges: managing fats, oils, and grease (FOG). FOG is a persistent issue that causes expensive problems in both public and private wastewater systems, leading to clogged pipes, equipment damage, and even environmental harm. Suzan and Bradley dive into the science behind how FOG accumulates, why it poses such a threat to wastewater systems, and how municipalities, food service businesses, and industries are taking steps to combat it.
Episode Highlights:
Understanding the FOG Problem:
Suzan and Bradley unpack what FOG is, explaining how it forms, where it originates (often from food service establishments), and how it leads to costly blockages and infrastructure strain. FOG clogs aren’t just a nuisance—they can lead to equipment failures, increased maintenance costs, and risks to environmental and public health.
Preventative Measures that Work:
To stay ahead of FOG issues, Bradley explains best practices for prevention, including grease traps, interceptors, and maintenance protocols. These proactive solutions help facilities reduce FOG discharge before it reaches wastewater systems, protecting infrastructure and saving money over time.
Cutting-Edge Technology:
The episode also explores how technology is revolutionizing FOG management. Suzan and Bradley discuss tools like automated sensors that monitor grease levels, advanced biological treatments, and smart systems that detect and manage FOG build-up before it becomes an issue. These technologies are helping businesses and municipalities tackle FOG issues with greater efficiency and effectiveness.
Real-Life Success Stories:
Hear real examples of how effective FOG management has improved system performance and compliance, minimized costly blockages, and contributed to sustainable wastewater practices. These success stories highlight the impact of FOG solutions on reducing maintenance needs, boosting efficiency, and supporting environmental standards.
Why This Matters:
As FOG continues to be a costly challenge, this episode provides invaluable insights for anyone involved in wastewater, food service, or environmental management. Learn how the right combination of technology, preventative measures, and industry best practices can make a substantial difference in reducing FOG-related issues and protecting both infrastructure and the environment.
