Flood Control
Nowadays, floods are one of the most common natural disasters worldwide. Unfortunately, climate change will aggravate sea level rise and extreme weather, further increasing the probability of flooding. Hydrodiesel delivers mobile pump systems with the largest capacity in the industry to use for flood control or dewatering.
With a growing (urban) population near waterways and in coastal regions, personal belongings, businesses, and infrastructure are increasingly exposed to flooding. The immediate impact of floods is damage to properties and infrastructure and, in the worst case, loss of life.
However, it can also have a long-term impact. The longer the floodwater remains, the greater the damage can be to the structure of buildings and installations. That is why it is vital to limit the economic damage to inhabitants, businesses, infrastructure, and (local) governments in vulnerable areas by pumping the water away as quickly as possible.
Our mobile pump solutions support you in reducing the risk and impact of flooding and are an excellent solution for pumping away large volumes of floodwater caused by heavy rainfall or for dewatering projects.
Hydrodiesel delivers a wide range high capacity, ready to use pumps. The pumps are diesel hydraulic driven and therefore do not depend on electricity.
The pumps have a displacement capacity of 2 x 2,500 cubic meters per hour (2 x 41,600 liters per minute). That makes a total of 83,200 liters per minute at a head of 17 meters liquid column.
With the addition of a booster pump, the system can transport large volumes of water over very long distances. The required 12 inch pressure hoses (100 meters long) are supplied on a hose reel.
We develop systems that are custom-built to meet your requirements that can be deployed rapidly, enabling a swift response in an emergency situation. We deliver three different configurations: on a trailer, a 20 foot semi-permanent container, or a container with a hook arm system.
