Since reform and opening up, China has achieved sustained and rapid development. However, the high input, high consumption, high emission of the traditional mode of economic growth resulted increasingly prominent conflict between the China's economic growth and environmental resources. How to select a road of economic growth with social, economic, ecological, environmental harmonious development under environment and resource hard constrained has a profound theoretical and practical significance.Relying on local development and utilization of natural resources, the rise of growing up of resource-based cities has a special law of the evolution of the city. Resource-based cities made important contributions to China's economic and social development. From specific life-cycle of the resource-based city, the development of resource-based cities is facing increasing depletion of local resources constraints. At the same time, they face serious damage to the ecological environment as well. In the coming decades ,with the changes in market demand, adjust to the industrial structure, as well as the increasing depletion of resources, China's regional, structural contradictions and difficulties are highlight during the growing. Regional industry development is on the important turning point which has the most dramatic changes in the structure and contradictions and opportunities are the convergence. As a result, sustainable development study on industry of resource-based city is very imminent and has become a concern to the government and the academic hot spots.For a long time, industrial structure of Jinchang has been exploitation of mineral resources, which lead to high consumption of resources, environmental protection pressure, short-chain industry, strong dependence on economic.Therefore, changing the mode of economic growth to speed up the comprehensive utilization of resources, a single resource-based economy become to the structure of an integrated multi-economic structure so as to promote sustainable urban development is bound to become history.At the same time, Jinchang is one of the 13 cities with shortage of water resources in China. Water shortage especially industry-oriented industrial structure and its rapid development resulted rapid growing needs to water resources is seriously restricting the social and economic development.How to develop ecological industry under limited water resources has become a concerned issue of the authors.Based on the theory of ecological economics, resource-based theory of urban, ecological industry theory and the theory of water resources, the author analyzed systematically natural, economic and social conditions of Jinchang which lies in arid zone as a resource-based city. After the quantitative evaluation of the quality of the development of eco-economic system with the application of ecological economics theory of the Emergy and the theory of ternary diagram in material science, as well as on the basis of experiment from the development of ecological industries of developed countries, combined with the actual situation of Jinchang, the author designed the eco-industrial and made industrial ecosystem research.On the basis of reviewing the relevant papers at home and abroad in the field of research results, the issue of eco-industrial development based on the theory of ecologial economy under the constraints of water resources is studied theoretically and practically. There are seven chapters in this thesis.Chapter 1 is the introduction, which puts forward the study background, research purpose and methods as well as the framework of this study.At last, the significance of research and some innovative spots are pointed out in this paper.Chapter 2 is a review of ecological economic theory, the theory of cycle of economic theory, theory of water resources, and theory of resource-based city as well as ecological industry theory. First, the relevant content and the main features of all concepts are sumed up. Then the theory of the creation and development process are reviewed.In Chapter 3, the quality of development of ecological economic system of Jinchang is quantitatively evaluated and discussed. As result, this paper points out that it is urgency for Jinchang to develop ecological industry as a resource-based city.In Chapter 4, based on analyzing constraints of water resources in Jinchang, some measures and ways to develop ecological industry and to solve the problem of water resources in arid areas are proposed.In Chapter 5, various species of the production process of all key enterprises in Jinchang are analyzed, and the industrial chain of ecological is designed.In Chapter 6, as an industrial ecosystem, the integration and flexible of the eco-industrial park is studied.In chapter 7, the conclusions and further study expectations are listed.The results show that Jinchang eco-economic system have the vitality and development potential; Economic development depends to a large extent on the outside support; In foreign trade, the greater the demand for resources, the energy, currency in circulation faster; Population pressure is far beyond the bearing capacity of environment; According to the existing mode of development, ecological sustainability of the economic system will be weakened.Therefore, Jinchang must attach importance to different types of resource utilization ratio. To take advantage of the non-renewable feedback emergy from outside, the system should use conservation and protection methods. At the same time, non-renewable resource use rate of the system should be reduced. Industrial water consumption there will be increased greatly in Jinchang in the future.Water resources use should followed the "to be set for" model . Through industrial restructuring and other strategies, water shortage problems should be alleviated. By analyzing production process of Jinchuan Company, Jinhua Group, Jinni Group ,Hexibao Iron Works and Yongchang Power Plant,the author find that Jinchang eco-industry construction is with a more solid foundation, and technology, industry links, management, the state's macroeconomic policies are more flexible in industrial ecosystem.
