On November 2, the second phase of the construction waste comprehensive utilization project of Huaihua International Land Port Economic Development Zone was officially completed and put into operation, processing 700,000 tons of construction waste annually. It is the first private investment project for civil engineering in the district this year to be completed and put into operation in the same year as it started.
It is reported that the comprehensive utilization project of 700,000 tons of construction waste per year is a key project in Huaihua City in 2024. It was officially signed and implemented with Huaihua International Land Port Economic Development Zone in September 2023. Selected in January 2024, the site was officially launched in March, completed and put into operation in November, achieving the goal of being put into operation in the same year of construction.
The second phase of the project that has been completed and put into operation covers an area of 20 mu (3.29acres), has produced workshops with an area of 9,000 square meters, which have been invested CNY 49.5 million. The project involves an array of production lines related to professional gravel, a machine-made sand, and a water-stabilized layer. Construction waste is transformed into building aggregates with different sizes and specifications through a series of processes such as sorting, classifying, crushing, combining waste stone, and re-producing. Combined with construction waste, sorting waste can produce up to 1.5 million tons of gravel, machine-made sand, water-stabilized layer and other building aggregates annually. These aggregates can replace natural sand and gravel.
The construction waste sorting lines of the first phase of the expansion project will also plan to start a new expansion of workshops covering an area of 12,000 square meters in February 2025; and six construction waste sorting production lines will be invested. After expansion, the sorting lines can process 1 million tons of construction waste annually, addressing the problems such as random piles of construction waste in Huaihua International Land Port Economic Development Zone and its surrounding areas, which can realize the recycling of solid waste resources arising from cities. The total investment of the first and second phases of the project will reach CNY 140 million. After completion, it will achieve an average annual tax payment of CNY 8 million and provide more than 100 jobs.
In recent years, Huaihua International Land Port Economic Development Zone has resolutely implemented the “two unwavering principles”, and all relevant functional departments are to spare no efforts to address difficulties and issues in the Zone by taking the initiative to ask what is to be needed and to make policies well known among the people in the Zone, continuing to optimize the business environment. The functions of the Huaihua International Land Port Platform are becoming increasingly complete, industrial development is taking shape, and the advantages of policies are more salient. It has achieved a transformation from “strategic positioning” to “strategic position”, enabling more private enterprises to invest in and take root in the Land Port, which promotes industrial structure optimization and then advances the development of local economy.
