Studies On Eco-industrial Park In China

Since China economic reform and opening-up, great progress had been achieved in economic development. But up to now, transformation of economic growth type has not been completely realized, which is "large inputs, high consuming, high emission, hard recycle and low efficiency" This type of growth belongs to traditional model, which follow the way of resources to goods and then to wastes, far from away to reach the economic circulation model from resources to goods and then back to resources. With further development and income increase, consuming of energy and main resource per cap will be increased, so the problem of resources restraining our economic growth will be outstanding. In order to transform the economic growth type, great efforts has been taken in all over the country for more than ten years, and it has gotten primary improvement, which can be seen from developing recycle economy actively, improving the goods design and manufacturing craft in principle of "reduce, reuse and recycle" (3R), making policy of tax, discount and subsidy, supporting enterprises technique reforms in economizing on energy, water and materials, and eliminating polluting craft technology and product.There are many misunderstanding in path selection on how to develop circulation economy. Unified policy and law, which attached economical and administrative method is essential, but China's regional inequality is very obvious. It determined that circular economy development needs to make a breakthrough in point on the basis of fact, and then from point to flat surface, step by step to breakthrough in important parts. It is essential to select developed regions to promote the circular economy because these regions can provide the new idea, advanced technology and solid material to support for the 3R principles. The paper puts forward that it is very appropriate to take industrial Parks (IPs) as the point. Though IPs is important and ideal part, its developmental model can't break traditional economic growth type, so it has to evolve to international Eco-Industial Parks (EIPs) in order to set example for circulation economy development in our country. The destination of IPs development is to evolve from IPs to the general pattern EIPs in the world.The paper concludes the phrase of IPs development in China and reveals the weakness of traditional IPs. The first generation IPs are the economic and technology development area, which function is to increase export, attract foreign direct investment in industrial sector. The second generation IPs, namely newly advanced technology development area, whose basic function is to develop our technology industries. Though the two types IPs raise the industrialization, urbanization and economy internationalization level to unprecedented level in China, it also brings some Self-contradicts and problems. The problems such as developing chance inequality, too many in number, over dependence on land management, not accounting environmental cost and no system to live together in IPs make the IPs development model exist vital shortcomings.Eco-environmental protection and sustainable development are melted into the construction and running of industrial system in EIPs, so the economy, society and environment can harmoniously develop together. EIPs are the destination of IPs transformation in many countries, and is also becoming our third generation IPs' main type following the first and second generation IPs in our country.The threat coexists with the opportunity in the process of IPs construction. China has its own merits, but a series of adverse sectors also exist at the same time. The advantages, disadvantages, opportunities and threats of EIPs' development in China are completely analyzed by the SWOT analysis. The result indicates that the advantages are mainly reflected in four parts. Firstly, there is favorable policy guarantee; secondly, explicit development destination; thirdly, abundant practical experience; finally, brand-new theoretical support. The disadvantages of developing circulation economy and constructing EIPs in China are mainly reflected by the following: (1) The collectivity is short of knowlege in general; (2) The law is incomplete; (3) The system and indexs and criteria to implement circulation economy are in need; (4) The theoretical research is seriously lagged. Though there is some difficulties in constructing EIPs, it is also faced with wonderful opportunities:(a) Our nation pays much attention to it;(b) We are seeking breakthrough in constructing IPs;(c) The primary practice in EIPs exists some adverse factors at present. The utmost challenge is the following: (i) interest conflicts between different authorities; (ii) constraints and restriction in administrative regions.On the basis of foreign EIPs' successful development experience, new ideas are put forward, including entironmental health and using eco-community to construct and manage EIPs in China. According to resources and environment in China, a framework is put...
