1. A particulate trap mechanism comprising:
at least one particulate removing medium, wherein each of the at least one particulate removing medium includes plastic or silicone scrubbers in a cylindrical shape with a hollow center;
a containing portion configured to contain the at least one particulate removing medium, wherein the containing portion has a tube profile, wherein the hollow center of the at least one particulate removing medium is centered within the containing portion;
a fluid intake connector configured to accept fluid from a fluid source into the containing portion from a first side, wherein particulate is entrained in the fluid, the fluid includes fat particulate and one or more measurable qualities, and the fluid flows through the hollow center of each of the at least one particulate removing medium, wherein the flow of fluid through the hollow center of each of the at least one particulate removing medium causes the particulate to separate into the plastic or silicone scrubbers; and
a fluid outflow connector configured to dispense fluid from the containing portion from a second side, wherein the fluid exiting the fluid outflow connector includes a reduced amount of fat particulate and the one or more measurable qualities, wherein the one or more measurable qualities have relatively the same value at the fluid intake connector and the fluid outflow connector, and wherein the first side of the containing portion is located at an opposite end to the second side of the containing portion.
