About Us
Drausy is a company that has been making a pressure-balancing distribution system for treating water and wastewater for 25 years. The application has been patented in 1998. The current owner Cordula Jäger took over from her father in 2020. At that time, the company changed location, refreshed management and optimized technical skills. Today Drausy is a manufactory that has 25 years of expertise in biological solutions - and feels like a startup - ready to combat climate-change and manmade based challenges.


Problem we are solving
The treatment of water bodies is essential to maintain a healthy aquatic environment. The Drausy® system is a micro-invasive linear aeration technology that uses compressed air to supply oxygen to the water column. This helps to prevent the accumulation of organic matter and the growth of harmful algae, as well as reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The system can be used in a variety of water bodies, such as lakes, ponds, and reservoirs, and can be customized to meet specific treatment goals. With Drausy®, the water body can be maintained in a healthy and sustainable state, providing numerous benefits for both the environment and human use.

Sustainable Impact on Blue Ecconomy
Regular dispersion of minimal dosage of gases or liquids on one line up to 10.000 meters, up to 100 m depth balance, individual placement of submillibubbles according to oxygen demands, very long lifetime (25y plus) and very low energy consumption. Proven for 25 years.
