Information regarding groundwater pumping

A question from Vicky: We have a pumped groundwater to surface water system which currently extracts and discharge approximately 10,000 m3 per day through a 15" pipe. As such we are looking at investing in a small micro-hydro plant to see if it would be possible to capture any of this energy which is currently being lost. I do not know if this is a feasible idea, the efficiency rate for such a plant or even if this is something you could offer. Any information or response would be gratefully received.
