General JM-1450 electric water jet
The compact JM-1450 Jet-Set water jet from General Pipe Cleaners uses high-pressure water to clear drain lines clogged with grease, sand, sludge and ice. Overall height of the water jet is 34 inches, and removing the easily detachable hose reel drops to the height to 14 1/2 inches. The heavy-duty frame rides on two 8-inch semi-pneumatic tires, and the telescoping handle and removable hose reel make maneuvering easy. It is powered by a 1 1/2 hp sealed motor with a GFCI outlet that drives a 1,500 psi, 1.7 gpm triplex pump. On-demand Vibra-pulse technology helps propel hoses down long runs and around tight bends, even in small lines. Safety features include a thermal relief valve to protect the pump from heat damage, a backflow check valve and inlet filter. An optional spray wand is available. 800-245-6200; www.drainbrain.com

Bionetix BCP22 treatment for high-grease applications
BCP22 from Bionetix International is a blend of facultative anaerobic bacteria targeted specifically to digest FOG. It accelerates the biological degradation of high FOG wastewaters, helping to lower sludge production, reducing unpleasant odors and improving treatment plant performance. As BCP22 loosens and liquefies grease deposits, it makes it easier to remove heavy buildup of fat in holding tanks, sewers, drains and aeration basins. The treatment can also reduce higher levels of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and total suspended solids (TSS) in wastewater, so facilities can meet acceptable discharge limits. 514-457-2914; www.bionetix-international.com
