Abstract
Resource recycling is one of the most important content of ecological civilization construction in China, which is beneficial to reduce the overuse of primary resources exploitation, to reduce the environmental pollutions during the process of resource extraction and waste disposal, and to realize the sustainable development of human economy and society. Resource recycling is a reflection of ecological economic development. Ecology provides a theoretical support for the resource circulation industry development. The ecological theories have played a guiding role. However, there are not enough academic researches to systematically summarize and analyze the relation and connection between ecology and resource recycling. Therefore, we based on the ecological theories to analyze the theoretical basis and application for resources recycling. The results showed that the ecological threshold theory, ecological balance theory, Overall hierarchy theory, the food chain (web) theory, niche theory and so on can be used to explain the resource circulation system such as resources recycling building concepts, resources recycling industry development foundation and the government's role in promoting resources circulation process. Based on the application of ecological theory for constructing the resource circulation system, further analysis of the scientific laws for the government regulation may help understand the concept of resource circulation and essence of circular economic system operation.

Limitless development and utilization of primary resources gives rise to the resource crisis and draws the attention to sustainable development. It was proposed in the “the Eighteenth National Congress of the Co mmunist Party of Ch ina” that the ecological civilization construction shall be placed in a prominent position, and resource recycling is a significant part of the ecological civ ilization construction
Summary
The social development of hu man being relies on the development and utilization of resources substantially. Limitless development and utilization of primary resources gives rise to the resource crisis and draws the attention to sustainable development. It was proposed in the “the Eighteenth National Congress of the Co mmunist Party of Ch ina” that the ecological civilization construction shall be placed in a prominent position, and resource recycling is a significant part of the ecological civ ilization construction. Illustrations are conducted from theories related to the resource circulation in ecology, and the analysis can be applied for guiding the construction of resource circulat ion system and development of resource circulation industry
