Towards Sustainable Resources Development in Beijing: SWOT Analyses of Urban Mineral Industry

Abstract:

Urban mineral is a description of the image of waste recycling and remanufacturing industry on a large scale. In this paper, Urban Mineral Industry is analyzed using strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) analysis systematically. The most important positive features were Political status, Well-developed regulation, Government financial support, Technology support and Potential of recycling. Shortcomings and deficiencies in the field of Waste classification, waste recycling system, management systems and market functions needs to be better improved. Construction of the World's City and Regional integration were seen as a potential opportunity for Urban Mineral Industry. However, there is substantial uncertainty and skepticism concerning that rise in energy prices and capital costs, environmental capacity and ecological safety risk and impact from foreign enterprises.
