Title Review on low-carbon development in Chinese industrial parks driven by bioeconomy strategies
Year 2024
Published
Abstract Given the importance of decarbonizing industrial parks to low-carbon transformation of industrial sectors, this study aims to unveil the dynamic evolution and progress of low-carbon development in such parks through descriptive, bibliometric, and manifest content analysis. The review goes in two parallel ways: the pros and cons of diverse carbon emission accounting methods and carbon mitigation measures targeting industrial parks, and the three main-stream national policy innovations during the past four years. State-of-the-art scientific research and policy practices have been reviewed to panoramically depict the low-carbon transformation of Chinese industrial parks and distinguish their future bioeconomy pathways. The key findings include: (1) Despite largescale explorations of carbon accounting for parks, the consistent boundaries of their physical systems and emission inventories must be resolved. (2) Carbon reduction actions are mainly concentrated on unit-level including energy and industrial infrastructure, but the decarbonization of system-level such as multisectoral collaborative systems requires more exploration. (3) Government policies are important for low-carbon development in industrial parks concerning efficiency improvement, synergy of pollution reduction and carbon mitigation, circular economy, performance assessment, structural upgrading, and industrialization-urbanization integration. (4) The bioeconomy must be innovated from both perspectives and the effective combination of unitlevel processes (highlighting the application of biobased energy, materials, and equipment) and system-level processes (emphasizing biomimetic industries, biorefinery solutions, and symbiotic ecosystems). This unit-system integrated model is oriented to further bioeconomy both in Chinese industrial parks and similar industrial clusters in other developing countries.
