BGT (Stock Code:300774.SZ) was listed on ChiNext board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange while Fudan Micro (Stock Code: 688385.SH) was listed on Star Market of the Shanghai Stock Exchange
BGT, a leading enterprise in water treatment, listed on SSE ChiNext
Established in 2004,BGT Group Co Ltd principally engages in reuse of sewage resources and advanced
water treatment, and provides customers with water treatment solutions, operation management and
technical services, commodity manufacturing and sales services.BGT has completed quite a few landmark water treatment projects and provided services to several hundred clients, including the big names of Sinopec, ZTHC Energy, China Coal, China Shenhua and State Power Investment Corp Ltd, etc.
Relied on its self-developed technologies, BGT offers tailor-made solutions to different industries, businesses in different regions and municipal wastewater treatment projects in accordance with their needs. This has helped clients to cut down treatment cost and increase the ratio of recycled water
usage.
The zero discharge salt separation technology for high salinity wastewater, for example, separates
high quality chemicals from the wastewater and processes the wastewater for reuse, with zero chemical wastes discharge. Compared to evaporation crystallization method widely used in the industry, the
"deep concentration process + fractional salt crystallization process" developed by BGT is more
tolerable to effluent quality, and has low treatment cost. This technique has been applied to China
Coal's Yuanxing comprehensive water treatment project and its salt separation output reaches 110,000 tons. Therefore, the technique is praised by the expert appraising meeting organized by China
Association of Environmental Protection Industry as "in general, it reaches the international
advanced level and in some parts, it is in a leading position in the world".
When enterprises apply "SMBR cell + ozonization + secondary effluent" technique in treatment of wastewater containing salt and phenol, operation cost can be substantially reduced. For instance, the salt and phenol containing wastewater treatment BOT project of Sinopec Sabic Tianjin Petrochemical Company Ltd, a cooperative project of Sinopec and Sabic of Saudi Arabia, has reduced its wastewater treatment cost by 70% and cut its operation costs by more than 40 million yuan per year. The Wuhai zone EPC
project and Wuhai urban EPC project designed and built by BGT increase reuse of recycled water to
nearly 100% and each year reduces the usage of 7.3 million tons of industrial water.
At present,BGT has 26 invention patents and 95 utility model patents. R&D staff of the company
reaches 99, accounting for 23.91% of its total employees.
Since the beginning of 2021, multi government departments have issued the Guidance on Promoting
Utilization of Wastewater Resources, and Development Plan of Urban Wastewater Treatment and
Utilization in the 14th Five-Year Plan, which is expected to create more business opportunities for
BGT.

of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
Fudan Micro has undertaken a number of national key technology projects and Shanghai key projects of emerging industries with strategical significance; and participated in the drafting of national and
industrial standards such as password application technology of RFID system of information security
technology, password application technology requirements of RFID system, and general NAND flash
memory interface.
A leader in the design of FPGA chips in the country, Fudan Micro was the first to launch 100-million-gate FPGA products at home. In 2018, it took the lead to manufacture 28nm process 100-million-gate
FPGA products, with its SerDes hitting 13.1Gbps. In 2019, the company started sales of the products, fulfilling a gap for high-end FPGA products in the country.
In the era of 5G and artificial intelligence, the advantages and importance of FPGA become more
obvious. To meet the needs from artificial intelligence, big data and Internet-of-Things, Fudan Micro is developing FPGA-based PSoC chips to provide more cost effective and more reliable AI PSoC
solutions to the new emerging businesses of facial recognition and computer vision. The company has
also started R&D for 14/16nm process billion-gate FPGA products and continues to make its
contribution to advanced FPGA technology breakthroughs of the country.
By December 31, 2020, Fudan Micro had 171 domestic invention patents and 7 domestic utility model
patents as well as 6 overseas patents; 160 products had successfully obtained IC layout design
certificate of registration issued by the State Intellectual Property Office, and its software
copyrights reached 225, having established the company a complete proprietary intellectual property
system. In 2018, 2019 and 2020, R&D investment proportion in the company's operation income reached
