ABOUT THE MEETING

Why did I receive this proxy statement?

You received this proxy statement because you held shares of the Company’s common stock on August 10, 2009 (the “Record Date”) and are entitled to vote at the annual meeting. The Board of Directors is soliciting your proxy to vote at the meeting.

What am I voting on?

You are being asked to vote on three items:

To elect a Board of six (6) directors to serve until the 2010 annual meeting of shareholders or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. (see page 6).

The ratify the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the 2009 fiscal year (see page 10).

To approve an amendment of the articles of incorporation that increases the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares (see page 12).

How do I vote?

Shareholders of Record

If you are a shareholder of record, there are two ways to vote:

By completing and returning your proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided by the Company; or

By voting in person at the meeting.

Street Name Holders

Shares that are held in a brokerage account in the name of the broker are said to be held in “street name.”

If your shares are held in street name, you should follow the voting instructions provided by your broker. You may complete and return a voting instruction card to your broker, or, in many cases, your broker may also allow you to vote via the telephone or internet. Check your proxy card for more information. If you hold your shares in street name and wish to vote at the meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker and bring that proxy to the meeting.

Regardless of how your shares are registered, if you complete and properly sign the accompanying proxy card and return it to the address indicated, it will be voted as you direct.

What are the voting recommendations of the Board of Directors?

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote in the following manner:

FOR each of the persons nominated by the Board of Directors to serve as directors.

FOR the ratification of the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the 2009 fiscal year.

FOR the approval of the amendment of the articles of incorporation that increases the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares.

Unless you give contrary instructions on your proxy card, the persons named as proxies will vote your shares in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors.

Will any other matters be voted on?

We do not know of any other matters that will be brought before the shareholders for a vote at the annual meeting. If any other matter is properly brought before the meeting, your signed proxy card would authorize Mr. Baowen Ren to vote on such matters in his discretion.

Who is entitled to vote at the meeting?

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the annual meeting. If you were a shareholder of record on that date, you will be entitled to vote all of the shares that you held on that date at the meeting, or any postponement or adjournment of the meeting.

How many votes do I have?

For holders of common stock, you will have one vote for each share of the Company’s common stock that you owned on the Record Date.

How many votes can be cast by all shareholders?

The Company had _____ outstanding shares of common stock on the Record Date, and each of these shares is entitled to one vote.

How many votes must be present to hold the meeting?

The holders of at least a majority of the shares entitled to vote of the Company’s common stock outstanding on the Record Date must be present at the meeting in person or by proxy in order to fulfill the quorum requirement necessary to hold the meeting. This means at least _____ common shares must be present in person or by proxy.

If you vote, your shares will be part of the quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes will also be counted in determining the quorum. A broker non-vote occurs when a bank or broker holding shares in street name submits a proxy that states that the broker does not vote for some or all of the proposals because the broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owners on how to vote on the proposals and does not have discretionary authority to vote in the absence of instructions.

We urge you to vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the meeting so that we will know as soon as possible that a quorum has been achieved.

What vote is required to approve each proposal?

The six nominees for directors who receive the most votes will be elected.

The required vote to approve the ratification of the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2009 fiscal year is the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, excluding abstentions.

The required vote to approve the amendment of the articles of incorporation that increases the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares is the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, excluding abstentions.

An abstention with respect to these proposals will be counted for the purposes of determining the number of shares entitled to vote that are present in person or by proxy. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a negative vote.

If a broker indicates on the proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter, those shares will not be considered as present and entitled to vote with respect to the matter.

Can I change my vote?

Yes. You may change your vote by sending in a new proxy card with a later date, or, if you are a shareholder of record, sending written notice of revocation to the Company’s Secretary at the address on the cover of this proxy statement. Also, if you attend the meeting and wish to vote in person, you may request that your previously submitted proxy not be used.

Who can attend the annual meeting?

Any person who was a shareholder of the Company on August 10, 2009 may attend the meeting. If you own shares in street name, you should ask your broker or bank for a legal proxy to bring with you to the meeting. If you do not receive the legal proxy in time, bring your most recent brokerage statement so that we can verify your ownership of our stock and admit you to the meeting. You will not, however, be able to vote your shares at the meeting without a legal proxy.

What happens if I sign and return the proxy card but do not indicate how to vote on an issue?

If you return a proxy card without indicating your vote, your shares will be voted as follows:

FOR each of the nominees for director named in this proxy statement; and

FOR ratification of the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the 2009 fiscal year.

FOR approval of the amendment of the articles of incorporation that increases the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing and, as appropriate, making recommendations to the Board regarding the annual salaries and other compensation of the Company’s executive officers and general employees and other policies, and for providing assistance and recommendations with respect to the compensation policies and practices of the Company. The current members of the Compensation Committee are Bennet P. Tchaikovsky, Wenjie Zhang and Yong Li, and Mr. Zhang serves as the Chairman.

Nominating Committee

The Nominating Committee identifies and evaluates candidates for election to the Company’s Board of Directors. The current members of the Nominating Committee are Bennet P. Tchaikovsky, Wenjie Zhang and Yong Li, and Mr. Zhang serves as the Chairman. Since the Nominating Committee was created on December 15, 2008, the Committee did not meet or take action by unanimous written consent during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

The Nominating Committee selects candidates for director who, in the view of the Nominating Committee and based on all available information and relevant considerations, are most suited for membership on the Board. The process for identifying and evaluating nominees for director is as follows:

The Board will evaluate the qualifications and performance of the incumbent directors that desire to continue their service. In particular, as to each such incumbent director, the Board will:

consider if the director continues to satisfy the minimum qualifications for director candidates adopted by the Board;

review the assessments of the performance of the director during the preceding term; and

consider any special facts and circumstances that may lead the Board to believe that a director should not be re-nominated.

If the Board determines that:

an incumbent director consenting to re-nomination continues to be qualified and has satisfactorily performed his or her duties as director during the preceding term; and

there are no reasons, including considerations relating to the composition and functional needs of the Board as a whole, why in the Board’s view the incumbent should not be re-nominated,

the Board will, absent special circumstances, propose the incumbent director for re-election.

The Board will identify and evaluate new candidates for election to the Board where there is no qualified and available incumbent, including for the purpose of filling vacancies arising by reason of the resignation, retirement, removal, death or disability of an incumbent director or a decision of the directors to expand the size of the Board.

The Board will solicit recommendations for nominees from persons that the Board believes are likely to be familiar with qualified candidates. These persons may include members of the Board and management of the Company. The Board may also determine to engage a professional search firm to assist in identifying qualified candidates.

As to each recommended candidate that the Board believes merits consideration, the Board will:

cause to be assembled information concerning the background and qualifications of the candidate, including information concerning the candidate required to be disclosed in the Company's proxy statement under the rules of the SEC and any relationship between the candidate and the person or persons recommending the candidate;

determine if the candidate satisfies the minimum qualifications required by the Board of candidates for election as director;

determine if the candidate possesses any of the specific qualities or skills that under the Board’s policies must be possessed by one or more members of the Board;

consider the contribution that the candidate can be expected to make to the overall functioning of the Board; and

consider the extent to which the membership of the candidate on the Board will promote diversity among the directors.

It is appropriate for the Board, in its discretion, to solicit the views of the Chief Executive Officer, other members of the Company's senior management and other members of the Board regarding the qualifications and suitability of candidates to be nominated as directors.

In its discretion, the Board may designate one or more of its members to interview any proposed candidate.

Based on all available information and relevant considerations, the Board will select a candidate who, in the view of the Board, is most suited for membership on the Board.

In making its selection, the Nominating Committee will consider director candidates recommended by shareholders. In addition to the criteria for evaluation of other candidates to the Board (as listed above), the Nominating Committee may consider the size and duration of the interest of the recommending shareholder or shareholder group in the equity of the Company. The Committee may also consider the extent to which the recommending shareholder intends to continue holding its interest in the Company, including, in the case of nominees recommended for election at an annual meeting of shareholders, whether the recommending shareholder intends to continue holding its interest at least through the time of such annual meeting.

Any shareholder filing a written notice of nomination for director must describe various matters regarding the nominee and the shareholder, including such information as name, address, occupation, and shares held. For further details on submitting shareholder proposals for director candidates, see “Shareholder Proposals” below.

Shareholder Communications with Non-Management Members of the Board

The Company’s Board of Directors has not adopted a formal process for shareholders to send communications to the independent members of the Board. Shareholders may, however, communicate with the non-management members of the Board by sending correspondence addressed to a non-management member to Sino Clean Energy Inc., Room 1605, Suite B, Zhengxin Building, No. 5, Gaoxin 1st Road, Gaoxin District, Xi’an City, Shaanxi Province, People’s Republic of China 710075.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” EACH NOMINEE.

PROPOSAL 2 - RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

The Board’s Audit Committee recommends Weinberg & Company P.A. (“Weinberg”) as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009. Weinberg was the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The Board requests that shareholders ratify its selection of Weinberg as the independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009.

Representatives of Weinberg are not expected to be present at the 2009 annual meeting, either in person or by teleconference.

Shareholder ratification of the selection of Weinberg as the Company’s independent registered public accountants is not required by the Company’s bylaws. The Board, however, is submitting the appointment of Weinberg to the shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the shareholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain Weinberg. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may appoint a different independent accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board. The charter provides, among other things, that the Audit Committee has full authority to engage the independent auditor. The Audit Committee has, with regards to the following oversight responsibilities with respect to the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008:

reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management;

received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountants required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T, and discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant’s independence; and

based on the review and discussions referred to above, recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008.

Respectfully submitted,

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

Bennet P. Tchaikovsky, Chairman of the Audit Committee

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF WEINBERG & COMPANY, P.A. AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

PROPOSAL 3: INCREASE OF AUTHORIZED STOCK

Our authorized capital currently consists of 200,000,000 shares of common stock. As of August 10, 2009, we had _____ shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Pursuant to the amendment we will increase the total number of authorized shares of our common stock to 300,000,000 shares. The text of our amendment to the articles of incorporation is attached to this information statement as Appendix A.

Pursuant to the amendment to the articles of incorporation, we plan to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock to 300,000,000 shares from 200,000,000 shares. As of August 10, 2009, of the 200,000,000 authorized shares of the Company’s common stock, _____ are issued and outstanding and _____ of the authorized shares are reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding options, warrants or convertible securities.

The Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interest of the Company to increase the number of authorized shares to ensure that the Company has the flexibility to pursue future opportunities, including public or private offerings of shares for cash, acquisitions of other companies, pursuit of financing opportunities, stock options and other employee incentives, and other valid corporate purposes. However, the Company currently has no plans to pursue any specific acquisitions, issuances in connection with public or private offerings for cash, or other financing activities or to issue any of the shares should they be authorized. None of the Company’s directors or executive officers has a personal or financial interest in increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock.

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our Board of Directors, in its discretion, from funds legally available therefor. Upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive, pro rata, assets remaining available for distribution to shareholders. Our common stock has no cumulative voting, preemptive or subscription rights and is not subject to any future calls. There are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the shares of our common stock. All the outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. Although the increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock will not, in and of itself, have any immediate effect on the rights of our shareholders, any future issuance of additional shares of common stock could affect our shareholders in a number of respects, including by diluting the voting power of the current holders of our common stock and by diluting the earnings per share and book value per share of outstanding shares of our common stock at such time. In addition, the issuance of additional shares of common stock could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Moreover, if we issue securities convertible into common stock, the holders of our common stock may suffer significant dilution. Our Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interest of the Company and our shareholders to have additional shares of common stock authorized and available for issuance or reservation on an as-needed basis without the delay or expense of seeking shareholder approval (unless required by law). The Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interests the Company and its shareholders to have the flexibility to raise additional capital or to pursue acquisitions to support our business plan.

The proposed increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock could have a number of effects on the Company’s shareholders depending upon the exact nature and circumstances of any actual issuances of authorized but unissued shares. The increase could have an anti-takeover effect, in that additional shares could be issued (within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions that could make a change in control or takeover of the Company more difficult. For example, additional shares could be issued by the Company so as to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of the Company, including instances where the independent shareholders of the Company favor a transaction paying an above-market premium for shares of the Company’s stock. Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with the Company’s management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove the Company’s current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal. The Board of Directors is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company, and this proposal is not being presented with the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti- takeover device.

The amendment will effect a change in the number of authorized shares of our common stock. However, the amendment will not result in any change in our business, assets, liabilities or net worth (other than as a result of the costs incident to the amendment, which are immaterial). Our management, including all directors and officers, will remain the same after the amendment.

Upon the effective date of the amendment, the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock will increase from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares. Shareholders need not exchange their existing stock certificates.

The full text of the amendment to the articles of incorporation is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION INCREASING THE AUTHORIZED NUMBER OF COMMON STOCK TO 300,000,000.

PROPOSAL 4: OTHER MATTERS

The Board of Directors does not know of any other matters that will be presented for consideration at the 2009 annual meeting of shareholders.

Arrangements Involving Directors or Executive Officers

In July 2009, the Company sold approximately $11.6 million in aggregate principal amount of 10% senior secured convertible notes and warrants to purchase up to approximately 30.5 million shares of common stock in a private placement to several institutional and/or accredited investors.

Additionally, certain shareholders of the Company, including non-management shareholders, have entered into a voting agreement pursuant to which such shareholders agree to vote to elect Mr. Li to the Board.

Except as described above with respect to Mr. Li, there is no arrangement or understanding between any of our directors or executive officers and any other person pursuant to which any director or officer was or is to be selected as a director or officer, and there is no arrangement, plan, or understanding as to whether non-management shareholders will exercise their voting rights to continue to elect the current board of directors.

(d)	Been found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Based solely on review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company, or written representations that no reports were required, the Company believes that for the year ended December 31, 2008, our directors and executive officers complied with Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them, except that Mr. Hon Wan Chan, Mr. Bennet Tchaikovsky and Dr. Zidong Cao did not file their Form 3s or Form 5s in connection with transactions that occurred during 2008.

Director Independence

Our board of directors has determined that it currently has four members who qualify as "independent" as the term is used in Item 407 of Regulation S-K as promulgated by the SEC and Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5605(a)(2). The independent directors are Bennet P. Tchaikovsky, Wenjie Zhang, Zidong Cao and Yong Li. All of the members of our Audit Committee qualify as independent. All of the members of each of our Nominating and Compensation Committees also qualify as independent.

Code of Ethics

On December 15, 2008, we adopted a code of ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employees, including our chief executive officer, senior executive officers, principal accounting officer, and other senior financial officers. Our code of ethics is available on our website at www.sinocei.net. A copy of our code of ethics will also be provided to any person without charge, upon written request sent to us at our offices located at Room 1605, Suite B, Zhengxin Building, No. 5, Gaoxin 1st Road, Gaoxin District, Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, People’s Republic of China 710075.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

We are a Nevada corporation, and accordingly, we are subject to the corporate laws under the Nevada Revised Statutes. Pursuant to our articles of incorporation and Nevada’s Revised Business Statutes, our bylaws contain the following indemnification provision for our directors and officers:

“The corporation shall indemnify directors, officers, employees, and agents of the corporation to the extent required by the Nevada Revised Statutes and shall indemnify such individuals to the extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes. The corporation may purchase and maintain liability insurance, or make other arrangements for such obligations or otherwise, to the extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes.”

Such indemnification provision may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of our executive officers and directors for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. We do not currently carry directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering our directors and officers, but we have plans to do so. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. No pending material litigation or proceeding involving our directors, executive officers, employees or other agents as to which indemnification is being sought exists, and we are not aware of any pending or threatened material litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any of our directors or executive officers.
