CECEP has been selected as one of the 10 most influential companies in China's water industry for 10 successive years, and won the growth award of Frost & Sullivan, being the only Chinese company receiving this honor in the water sector.
In 2012 the company started investment and operation in the realms of water supply, treatment of sewage and industrial waste water, and rehabilitation of polluted sites. Running 110 water plants and waste water treatment projects, it provides integrated solutions for treatment of industrial waste water, rehabilitation of polluted soil and water, water environment management, and silt disposal. Its investment and technical services cover the whole industrial chain in the water market, ranging from reservoirs and pipelines to water plants.
CECEP is the only designated pipeline and construction subcontractor from China in Sri Lanka's water projects. In 2012 it built in the country a waste water treatment facility with a daily capacity of 14,000 square meters and a water supply plant (Kelani Right Bank) with a daily capacity of 181,000 square meters. The former treated sewage for more than 50,000 residents and waste water from about 100 companies and factories, and the latter supplied running water for around 350,000 residents.
Also in 2012, the new materials branch of CECEP increased investment in fly ash treatment, and improved its capacity of energy conservation and emission reduction. In that year alone it reduced land use by 133 hectares and coal consumption by 70,000-plus tons, and treated nearly one million tons of solid waste, including rock powder and coal gangue. Following breakthroughs in the technology of making air bricks solely with coal gangue, CECEP has been granted national patents over 77 product lines of 38 categories and 208 specifications.
