An ALB Model of Eco-Industrial Parks

Article Preview

Abstract:

The design and management of Eco-Industrial Park (EIP) should be conducted based on quantitative analysis. In this paper, A model for EIP decision is developed. Industry ecological chain is introduced into the model, so that the decision in the course of EIP design and management can be formulated as an assembly line balance (ALB) model. It is easy to use, modify, reuse the model, and can be used as the optimization models in EIP decision-making or choosing members. A case study of a prototype EIP in Harbin City in China is illustrated. Two scenarios are studied. The ALB model is solved by LINGO software.
