Abstract :
Since the beginning of the 21st century, the eco-industrial park has become the important carrier for the development of circular economy in the US and the EU countries. It is also the new direction and trend for the development of the industrial park. This paper discusses the main characters of the eco-industrial park through the analysis of the eco-industrial park in the US and EU. The Wuhan metropolitan zone is now in the process of its attempt for the construction of resource-conservation and environment-protection society under the guidance of the Chinese Central Government. Based on the detailed discussion on the development status and main problems of the industrial parks in the Wuhan metropolitan zone, the author finally points out some practical suggestion for their future development.
