!/2 cup of oatmeal raw is about 150 calories. Cooking it will expand the volume but only because the oatmeal absorbs the liquid it is cooked in. As a rule of thumb it will about double in volume (1/2 cup raw = 1 cup cooked).
Applications Suitable for Grease Grease and oil are not interchangeable. Grease is used when it is not practical or convenient to use oil. The lubricant choice for a specific application is determined by matching the machinery design and operating conditions with desired lubricant characteristics. Grease is generally used for: 1  Machinery that runs intermittently or is in storage for an extended period of time. 2  Machinery that is not easily accessible for frequent lubrication. 3  Machinery operating under extreme conditions such as high temperatures and pressures, shock loads or slow speed under heavy load. 4  Worn components.
Interceptors require a retention time of 30 minutes to allow the fats, oils, grease and food solids to settle in the tank. As more waste water enters the tank the grease free water is pushed out of the tank. The rotting brown grease inside a grease trap or grease interceptor must be pumped out on a schedule. The brown grease is not recycled and goes to landfill. On average 300 to 400 pounds (140 to 180 kg) of brown grease goes to landfill annually from each restaurant.
