The center is one of China's 47 engineering projects by using loans provided by the World Bank. So far, the center has developed 300 equipment and analysis checking machines, 2 labs and 4 production lines that are able to tap for engineering industrialization and system integration. It has developed 70 state-of-art technologies of the world advanced level with our own intellectual property rights and key equipment with products also developed by the center. All this has provided strong technology supports for China's 70 percent of rare-earth material treatment. The establishment of the center is an indication that China's rare-earth material engineering technology has already reached the world advanced level.
