To prevent complete stoppage, let HOT water run to warm lines. Add one cup of Thrift directly into drain opening. Let hot water run until all chemical is dissolved (use approximately 2 cups of hot water to a cup of Thrift). Let stand one minute then flush with HOT water. To keep drains working properly, add 1/2 to 1 cup of Thrift once a month. If drain is completely stopped up, use a cable to open drain to allow water to flow then add Thrift as directed above, to ensure a proper working drain. GREASE TRAPS: A regular treatment of 2 lbs. of Thrift for each 100 gallons of capacity will greatly reduce the costly pumping and cleaning of your grease trap by keeping the grease and suspended solids in a liquid form, allowing your grease trap to function properly. Thrift may be applied at any drain leading to grease trap. Pour in dry and follow with enough HOT water to dissolve all chemical. Allow Thrift to stand in grease traps as long as possible, overnight for maximum results. SEPTIC TANKS: Thrift has no equal when it comes to maintaining a septic system and keeping it in proper working condition. To prevent costly pumping expense, use 6 lbs. of Thrift to treat a 500-gallon capacity septic tank. Pour Thrift along with very hot water down sink or tub drain (Not in Toilet), and continue to run hot water for a minute after all Thrift is down drain. Add 6 lbs. of Thrift once a year to prevent the build up of grease, and solid waste. This will ensure a proper working drain field and prevent costly repair or replacement. Proven effective and satisfying professionals for over 40 years. SEWERS: For slow-draining 4-inch sewer lines, use 6 lbs. of Thrift, a proven heat-producing formula that will liquefy grease and solid waste. For lines 60 feet and longer, a second application may be required. Thrift may be applied directly into sewer or opening leading to sewer. Add enough HOT water to dissolve all of the dry chemical. The use of 6 lbs. of Thrift once a year thereafter will usually keep the line clear and in a sanitary working condition. CAUTION: CONTAINS SODIUM HYDROXIDE. Keep face away from fumes and do not allow Thrift to come in contact with skin, eyes, mucous membranes, clothing, aluminum, floors or http://thriftmarketing.com/how_to_use_thrift.htm 1/2 3/23/2018 How to Use | Thrift Marketing, LLC. paint, etc. NOTE: Do not use in disposals, toilet bowls or urinals.

  • Toxicological Profile for Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbonyl Sulfide
    HYDROGEN SULFIDE AND CARBONYL SULFIDE 149 6. POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE 6.1 OVERVIEW Hydrogen sulfide has been found in at least 34 of the 1,832 waste sites that have been proposed for inclusion on the EPA National Priorities List (NPL) and carbonyl sulfide was detected in at least 4 of the 1,832 waste sites (ATSDR 2015). However, the number of sites evaluated for these substances is not known and hydrogen sulfide and carbonyl sulfide are ubiquitous in the atmosphere. The frequency of these sites can be seen in Figures 6-1 and 6-2. Carbonyl sulfide and hydrogen sulfide are principal components in the natural sulfur cycle. Bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes (a fungus-like bacteria) release hydrogen sulfide during the decomposition of 2- sulfur containing proteins and by the direct reduction of sulfate (SO4 ). Hydrogen sulfide is also emitted from volcanoes, stagnant or polluted waters, and manure or coal pits with low oxygen content (Aneja 1990; Khalil and Ramussen 1984). The majority of carbonyl sulfide that enters the environment is released to air and it is very abundant in the troposphere (Conrad and Meuser 2000; EPA 1994c, 1994d; Meinrat et al. 1992; Simmons et al. 2012; Stimler et al. 2010). It enters the atmosphere from both natural and anthropogenic sources (EPA 1994c, 1994d; Meinrat et al. 1992; Stimler et al. 2010). Carbonyl sulfide is released from wetlands, salt marshes, soil, oceans, deciduous and coniferous trees, and volcanic gases (Blake et al. 2004; EPA 1994c, 1994d; Meinrat et al. 1992; Rasmussen et al. 1982a, 1982b; Stimler et al.

  • 10 Things You Don't Know About Home Sewer Explosions
    10 Things You Don’t Know about Home Sewer Explosions and Home Contamination Reduce the likelihood of sewer backup in your home More than 500,000 sewer backups occur each year in the United States. Sewers normally back up through the lowest plumbing fixture in your home. According to the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS), 68% of all drain system sewer backup claims started in the basement and claims occurring in finished basements are 65% more severe than in unfinished basements. Even if you are adeQuately protected financially through your insurance coverage, it’s worth the time and investment to prevent the inconvenience and health hazard from a major sewer backup. Depending on the severity of the loss, your family may need to live elsewhere while your home is restored to a habitable condition. Nationwide Private Client Risk Solutions recommends the following steps to help prevent sewer or drain backups: • Have your home’s sewer lateral line periodically inspected for buildup, cracks, and invading tree roots. If you have a cast-iron or clay lateral pipe, you may want to have a PVC pipe installed to reduce the risk of tree root problems. Homeowners, not your local municipality, are responsible for maintaining the sewer lateral lines. • Don’t pour grease down your kitchen sink. It can congeal, cling to your pipes and cause serious damage and blockage. • Compost or throw away larger food items rather than grinding them in the food waste disposer. • Don’t flush anything other than toilet paper down the toilet, even if the product packaging suggests that it is flushable.

Supplementary Notes 16. Abstract Trench and slotted drains are increasingly being used by ODOT to remove storm water from the roadways. These drains have to be properly cleaned and maintained to prevent vehicles from hydroplaning, eliminate flooding and avoid premature roadway failure. ODOT’s current methods for cleaning/maintaining trench and slotted drains take a lot of time and are expensive. This research report documents the current methods that ODOT utilizes for cleaning trench and slotted drains and recommends alternative cleaning methods that can improve safety, production rate and cost effectiveness. Currently, ODOT cleans trench drains manually or using a Sewer Cleaner.
