A “water-swallowing monster” is stationed at the west gate of Fengqing Park in Lianhu District, Xi’an. It is one of the largest integrated prefabricated pumping stations for rainwater and sewage extraction in Northwest China. It can extract 36,000 tons of water per hour, which means it can drain the artificial lake in Fengqing Park in 1.5 hours. With it guarding the park, the flood problem that has ravaged the area around Fengqing Park for thousands of years is expected to be eradicated.
The sponge city construction project in Xiaozhai area of Xi’an City takes solving the problem of waterlogging in Xiaozhai as its starting point, adapts to local conditions, gives priority to ecology, combines the ecological conditions of Xi’an, highlights the protection of the original ecology, selects multiple measures such as infiltration, retention, storage, purification, use and discharge according to local conditions, uses the existing lake body of Fengqing Lake for storage and regulation, comprehensively utilizes the water space, uses gravity self-flow and pump station for forced discharge of water, and uses gravity discharge for drainage. After the construction is completed, the current lake function will be restored.
The supplier of this integrated prefabricated pump station is the international pump industry giant Ebara Corporation. Its corporate philosophy is: to provide excellent technology and high-quality services in the fields of water, air and environment, to make extensive contributions to society; to conduct business with a high sense of ethics, and to build a good relationship of trust with every stakeholder. Guided by this corporate philosophy, Ebara actively participates in municipal engineering construction around the world, relying on its own superb R&D capabilities, advanced processing equipment, world-class test benches, and more than 100 years of accumulated technical experience, creating one typical case after another. Among them, the most representative is the underground filming location of the 2021 Spring Festival movie “Detective Chinatown 3” – Tokyo’s peripheral drainage system. The Ebara pump used is one of the largest pumping pumps in the world. Since the help of the Ebara pump, the problem of rainy waterlogging in the Tokyo area has been completely solved.


In order to better serve municipal projects, Ebara established a custom pump factory in Zibo, Shandong, specializing in the production of water pumps with huge flow and ultra-high pressure. It has one of the largest water pump testing centers in China, which can fully simulate the operating conditions of water pumps at the user’s site to ensure its safety and efficiency in actual operation.
Comrade Xi Jinping pointed out: “Moving towards a new era of ecological civilization and building a beautiful China is an important part of realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.” From the perspective of the evolution of human society, China is currently in a critical period of environmental governance, and the people of Ebara are always ready to contribute their own meager efforts to a better tomorrow for the motherland.
