Abstract
Industrialization plays major role in economic development and it is growing very rapidly to fulfil the requirements of resident by increasing production. However, creating financial advantages is no longer the sole goal of industrial growth in the present worldwide sustainable industrial development trend due to the depletion of ozone layer, eco system destruction and changed weather phenomena severely. Nowadays, increasing importance is given on the idea of compatible and continuous economic, ecological and social growth, and the use of eco-efficiency to assess the relationship among the environment influence and economic cost and Eco-industrial Park (EIP) is the solution of dropping environmental problems and promoting financial interests through the interchange of products and energy between sectors for mutual benefit. Thus, the main purpose of this research is to model an Eco-Industrial park in Sindh region in order to find the feasibility as well as cost savings benefits. To achieve this firstly, the literature review and field survey is carried out to identify the potential industries, which are suitable for establishing an Eco - Industrial park. Secondly, the data of wastes/by-products of these industries are determined, after that the model is prepared to show the material flow between the waste producing and utilizing industries. Finally, the possible utilization of these wastes/byproducts is worked out. It is estimated that the coal power plant produces 2273 tons of fly-ash, 239.9 tons of bottom ash and 300 tons of gypsum every day. Thus, utilizing these wastes/byproducts will save around Rs. 2.27 million daily.
