The Draco Advantage
-
Improve Dewaterability
Draco uses only temperature and pressure to breakdown cell walls, releasing trapped water for improved dewatering.
-
Reduce Takeoff Costs
Draco reduces sludge volumes by a minimum 70% after dewatering and up to 85% after drying, resulting in lower offtake and transportation costs, reduced tipping fees, and increased sustainability.
-
Increase Biogas Production
For plants with anaerobic digesters, centrate from Draco’s dewatering press is returned to anaerobic digesters for increased biogas production.

Assessment
This section contains a brief assessment of the FEFTS described.
There are 3 basic categories: General, Environmental and Socioeconomic assessment.
The purpose of this assessment is to give a quick overview to the potential FEFTS user of its application benefits.
For each question, the Likert scale is used with the following possible answers:
Strongly disagree, Disagree, Neither agree nor disagree (Neutral)/non applicable, Agree, Strongly agree
General
This FEFTS contributes to improve the energy profiles of farming systems:Environmental
The application of this FEFTS directly reduces fossil energy use, in terms of:- Buildings electricity consumption
- Buildings heat use
- Tools and equipment electricity consumption
- Tools and equipment fuel consumption
- Manure reduction
Socioeconomic
The application of this FEFTS contributes to cost reductions of farming systems:Keep in mind that this assessment is subjective, based on publicly available information.
All registered users are asked to evaluate each FEFTS and when an adequate number of reviews is gathered the results depicted here are updated. Each review is screened in order to avoid malicious practices.
FEFTS providers who do not agree with the assessment results, can send their inquiry to info@agrofossilfree.eu and a direct action based on their petition will be taken.
