A technology solution developed by Ba Ria-Vung Tau Urban Sewerage and Development Ltd Company (BUSADCO) to enhance prefabricated barriers to protect river banks and sea dykes was recently honored by the Science and Technology Journalists' Club.

The BUSADCO solution was recognized as one of the top ten science and technology developments of 2015. Newly developed solutions are chosen based upon six categories – mechanisms and policy, social sciences and humanities, fundamental research, applied research, international co-operation and honoring scientists.

The BUSADCO technology solution was developed by company general director Hoang Duc Thao, who also owns more than 40 scientific products that are highly appreciated by domestic and international scientists.

The BUSADCO technology solutions include cubes, pillars and combined structures that minimize erosion, sliding and pushing.

BUSADCO technology solution focuses on developing prefabricated structures to protect river banks and sea dykes

Products are prefabricated in a factory. Compared to traditional solutions, the construction process takes only one-third of the usual time, while the cost is reduced by at least 20%. Prefabrication also helps overcome numerous challenges caused by weather, climate and hydrology, while remaining convenient for operations and maintenance.

The products are used in coastal areas and HCM City.

Tran Dang Nghia, Vice Director of HCM City's Anti-flooding Program, said that the products helped reinforce weak ground foundation, noting that the city's soil was generally weak and unstable due to daily high tides.

Other evens listed in Vietnam's top 10 science and technology events in 2015, as announced by the Science and Technology Journalists' Club, are the successful transplanting of kidneys taken from ‘non-heart-beating' patients in June. Vietnam ranks third among ASEAN countries in the Global Innovation Index 2015 and Tech start-up festival launched in Hanoi in May.
