The problems caused by the build-up of fats, oil and grease (FOG) in sewers continues to cause problems for both the businesses producing these materials through their operations and the municipal wastewater companies who have to deal with these problems. Such heavy deposits of FOG often cause the production of mal-odours which give rise to complaints of nuisance smells from local res dents.

The Biostar® range from ACAT offer liquid and solid microbial products which have been specially developed to destroy the FOG produced in commercial catering and by industrial food processing  operations. These Biostar® products are simple to apply and can be dosed automatically. They contain aerobic bacterial strains, and often surfactants,

which rapidly degrade FOG converting this into simple, environmentally harmless compounds that cannot reform again in the sewer. By breaking down the FOG in the sewer system this means that the operator does not have to clean their fat traps or drain pipes as often, and the wastewater company does not have to clean their sewer system. The activity of Biostar® ensures that no extra organic loading is placed upon the sewage treatment plant receiving the sewage from treated sewers and odours due to FOG are reduced within the system.
