While we pursue sustainable development on the contemporary, the environmental pollution caused by industrial parks is urgent to be solved. A quantitative evaluation of its industrial ecosystem by using scientific appraisal methods is an important prerequisite to promote harmonious development of industrial system and ecosystem, and provides scientific guidance for the industrial park's management and development. In this paper, using emergy method to analysis the industrial ecosystem of Fuzhou Economic-Technological Development Zone from 1996-2007, and using emergy density, emergy money ratio, emergy waste ratio, environmental loading ratio, etc to measure its natural sustainable,social sustainable and sustainable economic development separately. Conclusions were as follows:At the aspect of sustainable economy, the industrial ecosystem of Fuzhou Economic-Technological Development Zone showed stable development in this 12 years, but there is a significant gap compared with domestic economically developed regions, and the economic efficiency shows hysteresis to some degree, the external economic influence of system is limited; At the aspect of natural sustainable, according to the environmental loading ratio increased year by year, the environmental pressures caused by economic development is still increasing. The potential for reuse wastes of system is considerable; At the aspect of social sustainable, it reflects a significant promotion of emergy benefits of the residents but not a high level at the national level at home, and lag behind the growing of overall benefits, it is shows that the emergy benefits is influenced by population to a certain extent, besides the total emergy. The integrated sustainable development indicators declined, from 0.15 to 0.11, at a low level. To point against those emergy features and evaluations results of the industrial ecosystem, this paper proposed some measures such as strengthen the building of eco-industrial park.
