There is a great potential market for them.

4. Technological and Equipment Planning

The technology adopted in the project is the researching result of the Oil Crops Research Institute of China Agricultural Science and Technology Academy. It has passed the mid-term appraisal in 1998. The technology has filled the vacancy domestically and it is the most up-to-date technology nowadays.

5. Investment Estimation

Total investment is 72.1723 million yuan, including construction investment of 66.0153 million yuan and initial current assets of 6.157 million yuan. 27.7723 million yuan will be raised by the enterprise itself. 44.4 million yuan will be applied for loan or asked for investment.

6. Economic and Social Benefits Analysis

The input and output ratio for further processing every one ton of rapeseed dregs is 1:8. The economic profits are remarkable.

7. Process of the project

Both Anhui Provincial Planning Commission and Hefei Municipal Planning Commission has approved the project and its feasibility study report. It is planned to buy the former Hefei Yongkang Oil Co. Ltd. through the mode of annexing. The existing factory buildings and equipment of the company will be reformed. The project will be put into operation at the end of 2000.
