Design and Benefit Analysis of Eco-Industrial Park

Abstract:

The establishment of eco-industrial parks can not only reduce the costs of waste disposal and the purchase of raw materials, but also has a positive impact on both economy and environment. By setting Shanghai as an example, a model of the eco-industrial park was described and the design plan and operating procedures of the park were provided in this paper. Then the benefits of this park were discussed. It may bring about some practicable approaches for the development of China’s eco-industrial parks through a specific analysis as well as the presentation of an operating model.
