The Uson One-way macerator system is designed for hygienic transportation and treatment of food waste in compliance IMO Marpol 73/78 Annex V, U.S. Coast Guard, etc.

Food waste is ground by local macerator(s) in the galley and transported by vacuum to a special holding tank, which is designed for food waste. This makes it possible to run the system when the vessel is operating within an area where discharge is prohibited.

By using this system, ship owners ensure:

• Proper hygiene
• Lower water consumption
• Minimum the risk for blockage of food waste in the piping system
• Easy installation
• Smaller piping diameter
• Flexible pipe routing

In addition, the ground food waste can be de-watered by a sieve and press unit and our marine grease separator takes care of the greasy galley water. The system is suitable for retrofit onboard existing vessels. The system safely handles food waste and is easy to install, with low water consumption, small pipe diameter and flexible pipe routing.

grease seperators

To avoid clogging of grey water tanks and waste water systems a grease separator should be installed for the all grey galley water. The grease separator is specially designed for marine applications, so it will work even if the ship is rolling.

Unlike many other grease separators the ours has a proven 99.5% separation
efficiency (tested and approved by the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm), so the water is free from grease and oil and can be led directly to the grey water system or treatment plant.

The grease separators are equipped with automatic grease level alarm that alerts when it is time to empty the separator of fat. On the top of the inside there is a spray nozzle for cleaning with hot water.
