Business field<br />

DRAUSY disperses liquid or gaseous agents evenly and over<br />

distances spanning kilometres. The technique we use is Louis<br />

Pasteur’s dream turned into a reality: namely, that if we can<br />

change the environment, we need not bother about individual<br />

microbes. DRAUSY enables the environment to be changed.<br />

It works in pipes or channels, bringing the environment un<strong>de</strong>r<br />

appropriate conditions for the biology required to solve the<br />

problem. Over the last 12 years, DRAUSY has gained experience<br />

in network wastewater treatment. In the projects we<br />

have completed to date, we have always brought the water<br />

un<strong>de</strong>r slightly aerobic conditions, as microbes cannot produce<br />

H 2S un<strong>de</strong>r these conditions and the wastewater still has<br />

enough organic matter to be <strong>de</strong>composed in the treatment<br />

plant. By adding more oxygen in a more linear fashion, a pipe<br />

becomes a linear treatment station, whereby the wastewater<br />

is <strong>de</strong>composed in the same way as in the station. The same<br />

biological stimulation works on the ground of water sites.<br />

Capital Seeking Companies<br />

Their linear dispersion of air stimulates the existing biology<br />

such that the accumulated organic sludge is <strong>de</strong>composed.<br />

In<strong>de</strong>ed, it is like composting, but “un<strong>de</strong>rwater”. The water site<br />

is able to recover, and fish, plants and people are happy again.<br />

Strategic market position<br />

DRAUSY technology <strong>de</strong>livers innovative turnkey solutions for<br />

solving extensive environmental problems. Instead of common<br />

spot-dosage dosage, DRAUSY enables linear dosage,<br />

thus achieving savings of agents up to 90%. The technology<br />

has proven its worth in industry, following more than 10 years<br />

in sewage networks. Projects have been recently been implemented<br />

in major sewers in Paris and Tangier. DRAUSY’s future<br />

position on the market <strong>de</strong>pends upon what investors and interested<br />

partners are focusing on. Until now, DRAUSY has<br />

concentrated on making things work and enabling them to<br />

survive. It is now time to spread the results we have obtained<br />

around the globe and to become a facilitating partner in solving<br />

major environmental problems whilst make biology do the job.<br />

Management<br />

Nikolaus Weth is the foun<strong>de</strong>r of DRAUSY GmbH and<br />

DRAUSY Sàrl. He has held the position of CEO since 1998.<br />

DRAUSY patents (EU, US, Japan) and capital are wholly<br />

owned by Nikolaus Weth.<br />

Planned investment, sharehol<strong>de</strong>rs / investors<br />

DRAUSY’s aim is to become standard for linear or wi<strong>de</strong><br />

biological sanitation. Therefore Capital partners are looked for<br />

specific regional investment cases like:<br />

u Decomposition of organic sludge thus avoiding algae blossom,<br />

bad odour and fouling waters. For example the sanitation<br />

of US hydroelectric dams that are full of sludge.<br />

DRAUSY biological <strong>de</strong>composition of organic matters will<br />

increase reservoir’s water-volume so permitting to avoid<br />

<strong>de</strong>molition of the dam (as is done at ELWHA site). 230 more<br />

dams are to be <strong>de</strong>stroyed so there is a lot of work left.<br />

u Clean Hanoi wastewater in the network or the open channels<br />

on its way. VEOLIA states: “Best for China”<br />

u Sanitise Lake LAGOA at Rio <strong>de</strong> Janeiro (behind Copacabana).<br />

u Sanitise lakes like Dümmer or Steinhu<strong>de</strong>r Meer in Germany.<br />

High ROI is assured.<br />
