The design and management of Eco-Industrial Park (EIP) should be conducted based on quantitative analysis. In this paper, A model for EIP decision is developed. Industry ecological chain is introduced into the model, so that the decision in the course of EIP design and management can be formulated as an assembly line balance (ALB) model. It is easy to use, modify, reuse the model, and can be used as the optimization models in EIP decision-making or choosing members. A case study of a prototype EIP in Harbin City in China is illustrated. Two scenarios are studied. The ALB model is solved by LINGO software.

Based on the principal concepts of streamline balance, this paper analyses the issue of the line balancing, through analyzing traditional assembly line balance method and having the bottleneck work processes to amend the parameters of the Workplace design, and then building up a multi-variety small-batch production line balancing mixed-model.

Eco-industrial parks (EIP) are a community of manufacturing businesses which seek better environmental and economic performance by using the principles of Industrial Ecology (IE). In Taiwan, government-designated EIPs have operated since 1995, with 23 industrial parks currently in operation. This study presents a case from Taiwan, the Linhai Industrial park, and analyzes the park’s transition towards industrial symbiosis and resource sharing. Resource sharing modifications resulted in reduced carbon emissions, millions of liters of fuel saved, and thousands of tons of industrial waste recycled. This successful transition was possible because of coordinated government support. Key factors include technological subsidies, policy support, and willing manufacturers. Additional explanations for Linhai’s current success are explored and future areas of research are identified.

Mixed-use industrial park represents a new development approach of the modern industrial parks. Complying with this tendency, the land use planning of Sino-Singapore Guangzhou Knowledge City (SSGKC) proposes land relevance, non-interference and proportion control principles; discusses various mixing-use modes of commercial service land, residential land and industrial land. The plan also put forward a new type of cluster using layout to enhance the mixed land uses and eventually shape up a new industrial park that well integrates city with Industrial Park and industry with residence.

This study presents the results of an evaluation which provides the necessary decision making tools before to put into operation a System of Reclamation and Reuse Wastewater (SRRWW), in the way to assure the economic viability of the project. This system contributes to improve the sanitary conditions in Jiutepec, Mexico. The applied methodology considers the identification, quantification and economical evaluation of different impacts, private and external, selecting the alternatives that maximize the total benefit. The alternative of the industrial park of CIVAC is the most profitable for the reuse with a maximum benefit of 0.4591 USD/m3. With the idea of recovering all the SRRWW costs, the minimum price of sale of the regenerated water should be 0.2751 USD/m3. Even though all the impacts were not economically evaluated, it does not affect the result on investment decision, since the impacts without evaluating only will increase the benefits of the selected systems.

As a node of a supply chain, plant plays a key role in the network, which has been a strategic topic in the study of supply chain management model. Plant location decision is one of the crucial problems in the optimization and design of supply chain. The converte of competitions between single companies to competitions between different supply chains urges the extension of plant location decision from the view of single plant to the entire supply chain. This paper presents the application of AHP methodology in decision making of plant location considering the roles of plant in an entire supply chain. The different levels of criteria such as cost, cycle time of supply chain, and quality of plant locations, are proposed to be considered in the decision model. The case presented in this paper concerns plant location decision of a British group, who selected an optimal plant location from six alternative industrial parks in China.
