Abstract
A solid-sediment retainment plumbing trap devised primarily for a sink from which substantial amounts of solid material are discharged; e.g., eyeglass manufacture and dental plastic grinders. The plumbing trap is connected to the sink, and collects sediment in a bottle having a fill line. When sediment collecting in the bottle reaches the fill line, the bottle is exchanged for a similar bottle, and the plumbing trap is once again in service. Because the bottle is connected to the rest of the trap by threads, bottle exchange is rapid and easy.
