The Supply of Main Raw Materials: The main raw material of layered sodium metasilicate is soda bubbles made of quartz and calcined alkali. The alkali equipment is in construction in the province with an annual output of 900,000 tons of alkali. The province with resource advantages, is both rich in quartz, with Minghe County and Ledu County each having a reserve of over 200 million tons and Glauberite with the total storage reaching 1690.04 million tons.

Basic Situation of the Project: the project has a total area of 32,000 square meters. Major equipment to be purchased includes 40 set of crystallization furnace, 20 sets of high-speed spray devices, 470 sets of equipment for lifting cans and transporting raw materials. The construction scale is an annual output of 200,000 tons of layered sodium metasilicate. Sodium metasilicate, a layered pentahydrate---as a new phosphate-free detergent additive, is characterized by advantages in strong water-solubility, clean edge, and low cost. It is a multifunctional detergent additive meeting the ecological requirements. According to statistics, the annual demand of layered sodium metasilicate is over 800,000 tons with promising market prospect.

Construction Conditions: the construction site of the project is selected as Chuankou Town of Minghe County in Haidong Region. Chuankou Town is even in topography, with an annual average temprature of 8.1 degrees. The traffic condition here is very convenient with 109 State Road, Lan-ning Expressway, Lan Qing Railway crossing by. Chuankou town is rich in water resources which can meet the demand of water in production; natural gas pipelines cross by, with a sub-transmission station; Haishiwan Mine is at the other side of the river, which can meet the demand of coal in production.

Investment and Economic Benefits Prediction: the gross investment is 334.7 million Yuan, including 274.7 million Yuan in fixed assets, 60 million Yuan of liquid capital. After the project finished, the annual sales income can reach 900 million Yuan, the annual profits 191.8 million Yuan and taxes paid 37.4 million Yuan.

Preferential Terms: According to the “Notice on the Issuance of A Number of Preferential Policies and Measures Concerning the Implementation of the Western Development Strategy, by Qinghai Provincial People's Government (Qinghai Provincial People's Government [2003]35) implementation.
