Efficiency of Grease Residue from Grease Trap Waste Water Treatment for Candles Production
Nisa Pakvilai
Abstract—This study aims to investigate the properties of
grease residue from grease trap waste water treatment and to
determination the performance of candles from grease residues.
Grease residue from grease trap wastewater treatment system
at Canteen in Valaya Alongkorn Rajabhat University Under the
Royal Patronage. Grease processing at the source such as
houses and restaurants is unsuitable for common types of
pollutants, which are relatively small. The average amount of
grease residue from the grease trap was 200 grams / day. The
average household was 2.6 kilograms per day. The results
showed that the physical properties of stored grease for more
than 2 weeks were gray, high viscosity and foul odor. For new
grease, is yellow light, soft texture, and odorless. This study uses
a new fat density of 1.002 g/mL, the moisture content 58.04%,
and the heating value was 8148.63 kcal / kg. The physical
properties of the candles are produced at an appropriate ratio
of 3: 1 (paraffin: grease residue). In comparison with
conventional candles, the candles last for 2 hours and 10
minutes, but the candles are 3: 1 for 2 hours and 8 minutes, and
15 minutes with smoke.
Index Terms—Grease residue, waste water treatment, candles production.
