The Nguyen Huu Canh street flood-proof super pump complex (Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City) was installed by Quang Trung Industry Group in September 2017 and officially operated from October 2, 2017. As soon as the super pump was put into operation, the People's Committee of Binh Thanh District, the Operating Center of the Ho Chi Minh City Flood Control Program, the Union of Science and Technology Associations of Ho Chi Minh City said that the basic pump is effective, helps reduce flooding Traffic through this route is more convenient. By April 2019, the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City signed a contract to rent super pumps from Quang Trung Industry Group for more than 14.2 billion VND / year.
The difference of the super-pump complex of Quang Trung Industry Group compared to conventional centrifugal pumps is that the super-pump is placed underground, equal to the drain mouth and operates without priming. This unique, unique design of the super pump is also a reason that makes it difficult to determine the rental price of the HCMC People's Committee when it is not possible to find a control product.
Meanwhile, the water supply for agricultural production in the Northern Delta is currently facing difficulties due to the system of traditional centrifugal pumping stations not working due to the low river water level. According to the Institute of Irrigation Science of Vietnam, the total number of pumping stations and pumps of the former Northern Delta and Northern Region 4 provinces is 4,996 stations with 13,305 machines, particularly downstream of the Red River - Thai Binh has 502 pumping stations of all kinds. with 2,152 machines from 800-32000m3 / h.

In recent years, the pumping stations along the river in general and especially in the downstream of the Red River and Thai Binh in the dry season are in short of water. Most of the pumping stations, the water level of the suction tank is lower than the design water level from 0.5m to 1.5m, leading to severe drought, affecting productivity and efficiency of agricultural cultivation.
In the winter-spring crop of 2019-2020, the schedule of water intake for agriculture in the Midlands and Northern Delta region was issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development including 03 times, a total of 18 days. Also to get water, during this time, the water level at the Hanoi Hydrological Station is required to be maintained at 1.6 meters or more in phase 1; Must reach a height of 2 meters or more in phase 2 and 1.4 meters or more in phase 3.
However, according to EVN, with the drought and water shortage in lakes in the Red River basin as the dry season 2019, (7.2 billion m3 shortfall, of which 03 reservoirs directly participate in the discharge of water shortages 3.7 billion m3), together with the forecast that drought will continue to occur in the last months of 2019 and the beginning of 2020 to ensure water supply requirements for winter-spring cultivation and the rest of the season. Dry encounter a lot of difficulties. EVN also said that, due to insufficient hydropower water, in 2019, it will have to mobilize oil thermal power of about 2.5 billion kWh to compensate for it.
"If applying the super-pump complex of Quang Trung Industry Group to water supply for agricultural production, it will be active in pumping water for fields and hydropower plants will not have to discharge water from reservoirs", Mr. Nguyen Tang Cuong - Chairman of the Board, General Director of Quang Trung Industry Group affirmed.
Mr. Nguyen Tang Cuong's assertion is not without basis, in fact to persuade Ho Chi Minh City to install flood-proof super pumps on Nguyen Huu Canh Street, Quang Trung Industry Group has modeled a super pump set on the barge operating right under the river Da Bach, Uong Bi city.
On February 17, 2017, the delegation of the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City led by Mr. Nguyen Van Tam - Deputy Director of the Department of Transport of Ho Chi Minh City witnessed the engineers of Quang Trung Industry Group successfully operated the super pump complex. Da Bach river.
The super pump complex performed well at water levels covering 1/3, 2/3 and 100% of the sewer pipe. According to the Group's introduction, the smart pump complex has at least 5 levels of capacity, the smallest level is 27,000 m3 / h, the largest is 96,000 m3 / h; With multi-level design capacity, the pump will operate economically, suitable for the amount of rainwater to be drained. The machine operates automatically by diesel engine, not dependent on power source.
The device is 15m long, 6m wide and 4.2m high. The main pipe of the pump has a diameter equivalent to that of Nguyen Huu Canh road system is not 1.6m. In actual installation, a section of sewer pipe before being discharged into the river will be cut off and put down the pump assembly, which will only float above the operator's ground and the garbage separation system.
Mr. Nguyen Tang Cuong - General Director of the Group said: “Due to the direct connection to the sewer pipe, the pump is designed to work well in the working environment where there are many types of mucus and rubbish. When the pumping device works to push water into the river, at the same time the automatic garbage collection system will put the garbage on the ground, convenient for garbage collection. The complex also integrates a check valve system and has two auxiliary pipes that allow public water to flow naturally through the device (when the pump is not running) and prevent storm surge water from overflowing into the city's sewer system.
The actual operation of the super-pump complex floating on the Da Bach river shows that the super-pump complex will rise and fall according to the water level. Thus, with the application of agricultural water supply, the wait for the hydropower reservoir to discharge water to raise the river water level for pumping will stop.
