The government of Xi'an, capital city of northwest China's Shannxi Province has introduced state-of-the-art garbage treatment technology.

The government plans to establish China's first all-enclosed and pollution-free garbage treatment plant in the city, involving a total investment of 700 million yuan (US$84.3 million).

Xi'an generates 3,200 tons of garbage daily. By adopting ECLIPS garbage treatment technology, the city's pollution problem resulting from trashes will be solved completely.

The ECLIPS technology adopts an enclosed, leakage-free and pollution-free recyclable system. It is capable of treating various kinds of garbage produced from daily life and industries into harmless products.
