　　 1. Focus on market demand and uphold independent innovation.
　　Focusing closely on market demands and the growth of the eco-friendly and energy-saving industries, we adhere to the principle of "cultivating knowledge in the workshop and embedding patents into our products." Our independently developed jet aerators, steam ejectors, and vacuum systems have been sold to more than 400 cities across 21 provinces in China—and are even exported to Southeast Asia, successfully replacing imported products. Second, we are committed to building a robust "incubator" for industry development. By establishing pilot-scale testing facilities, we’ve ensured that technological innovations are not only developed in stages but also systematically nurtured, accumulated, and ultimately commercialized. Third, we are dedicated to fostering the green and low-carbon industry. Firmly embracing the development philosophy that "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets," our team has meticulously crafted key documents including the "Liaoyang City Carbon Peak Implementation Plan," the "Liaoyang City Three-Year Action Plan for Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction," the "Liaoyang City Energy Consumption Survey and Analysis Report," the "Liaoning Province Magnesite Industry Development Research Report," and the "Liaoyang County Magnesite Industrial Park Planning." These efforts have actively supported the region’s transition toward sustainable, green economic growth.
　　 II. Building State-Owned Brands to Drive the Industrialization of Scientific and Technological Achievements
　　Persistently advancing industry-education integration to accelerate the commercialization of research outcomes, we are establishing a deeply integrated innovation and R&D ecosystem—led by enterprises—with strong collaboration among industry, academia, research institutions, and end-users. This initiative focuses on process industries such as petrochemicals, power generation, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals, and building materials. Additionally, we are strengthening partnerships with universities and research institutes like Northeastern University to foster robust industry-academia-research-application cooperation. Currently, our research has centered on jet technology-based heat and mass transfer theory, as well as the development of environmentally friendly equipment. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, aligned with the "Dual Carbon" strategic goals, we will concentrate on the energy-saving and environmental protection sectors, pioneering a new integrated model of industry, science, education, and regional collaboration. This approach aims to contribute significantly to building a science-and-technology-powered nation and driving local economic growth.

　　 3. Serving the Local Community: Three Articles Showcase Your Skills
　　We persist in independent innovation and self-driven transformation, creating a deeply integrated "ecosystem" that brings together industry, academia, and research. This approach fosters the seamless convergence of innovation and industrial chains. Leading the establishment of the Environmental Engineering Branch of the Liaoning Provincial Society of Mechanical Engineering, we have also formed three key alliances: the "Liaoning Process Manufacturing Cloud Service Industry Technology Innovation Strategic Alliance," the "Liaoning Advanced Manufacturing and Modern Service Industry Technology Innovation Strategic Alliance," and the "Liaoning Boshi Process Industry Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Equipment Industry-Academia-Research Innovation Alliance."
