Abstract
The focus on the green manufacturing production is becoming more and more important in France. Le Havre is a city located in the north-western France, which concentrates more than a third of French refining capacity. However, simultaneously, the pollution caused by industries needs to be controlled. Furthermore, Le Havre would like to be the first city that does really ecological industrial park in France. Industrial symbiosis is a key concept of industrial ecology, which studies the physical flows of materials and energy in the local industrial systems. There are few studies that support the assumption of economic and environmental benefits of industrial symbiosis. So, in order to have a WIN-TO-WIN situation, we proposed a mathematical optimization control model. The model will help the manufacturing industries to reduce related costs, and the negative environmental impact would be decreased simultaneously. Best to our knowledge, currently, it does not exist any other general mathematical optimization model for constructing and optimizing an eco-industrial park.
