T
9、he firs organizational meeting was held on July 22, 1958.At the meeting of May 1, 1964, Panel No. 14 was created to establish standards for roofdrains, floo drains, backwater valves, interceptors, and other drainage specialties. Its charterwas as follows: the recommendation of suitable existing stan
10、dards in cooperation withinterested sponsors, or the development of adequate new standards as needed for roof drains,floo drains, backwater valves, interceptors, and other items as used in plumbing systems.The A112 Committee underwent a number of changes over the years and is currentlyidentifie as A
11、SME Standards Committee A112. Its project team, with responsibility forGrease Recovery Devices, is designated Project Team 14.4. The Project Team met a numberof times to prepare this Standard.The Project Team that developed this Standard recognizes that in the sewage treatmentcommunity and other jur
12、isdictions there exist various maximum limits of FOG (fats, oils,and grease) in the waste stream. The most common of these is 100 m/L (milligrams perliter) or 100 ppm (parts per million). The Project Team decided that until a finit numberis universally accepted, a number should not be included in th
13、e Standard. Therefore, it willbe included in a future version of this Standard.Suggestions for the improvement of this Standard are welcome. They should be sent toThe American Society of Mechanical Engineers; Attn: Secretary, A112 Main Committee;Three Park Avenue; New York, NY 10016-5990.This Standa
