The projects included an intelligent online detection device for equipment lubrication and solid-state hydrogen storage technology for rare earths, demonstrating the innovative strength and development potential.

Among them, four projects are from Baotou, provided by institutions such as the Baotou Rare Earth Research Institute, Baogang Group, and Inner Mongolia BKJD Robot Co.

"We hope to use this event to connect with investment and financing institutions and companies in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain," said Dong Dawei, a participant in the roadshow and director of a low-carbon new material innovation center supported by Baotou and Beijing University of Chemical Technology.
