Effect of Pore Size and Hydrophobic Coating on Oil-Water Separation System for Grease Trap
Public concern towards solidification of fat, oil, and grease (FOG) through disposed wastes into the drainage system is an unresolved issue to this day. The use of skimmer to separate oil and water form their mixture is a less comprehensive solution. This paper aimed to design the concept and fabric...
