The total investment amount of Phase I of this project is approximately RMB370 million, with an incineration capacity of 20,000 tons per annum and a physical-chemical treatment capacity of 20,000 tons per annum.

It will also be constructed under the BOO (Build-Operate-Own) model in two phases. The project is designed to have a hazardous waste processing capacity of 40,000 tons per annum.

Mr. Chen Xiaoping, CEO of Everbright International, said, "The demand for hazardous waste treatment services has been given a boost as a result of more stringent requirements for pollution control and intensified enforcement of environmental compliance. With its strong technical capabilities, Everbright International has the ability to safely treat 40 out of 49 categories of hazardous waste listed in the National Catalog of Hazardous Waste. In addition to making up for inadequacies in the local hazardous waste processing industry, the two new projects, which are in close proximity to the Group's waste-to-energy projects, will create synergies to achieve better cost control and improve efficiency through centralized management, financial and other resources."
