Abstract:Industrial symbiosis is one of the main methods to improve the efficiency of industrial waste utilization. In order to study how to choose the formation model of industrial symbiosis, the evolutionary game method is used to construct the industrial symbiosis evolutionary game model. The model aims at maximizing the total economic benefits of the society. From the two perspectives of governance subject and driving mode, we propose four scenarios of industrial symbiosis. On this basis, the nine parameter cases that can achieve industrial symbiosis and their corresponding industrial symbiosis realization probability are obtained through calculation. The research shows that: Firstly, when given parameters, it can be selected according to the model that the formation mode of industrial waste management between upstream and downstream enterprises. Secondly, whether the governance subject is upstream enterprise or downstream enterprise, there is no clear boundary between the government and the market. Thirdly, when the governance subject is downstream enterprise, it is difficult to achieve cooperation between upstream and downstream enterprises by market alone. On this basis, relevant policy recommendations were put forward to provide theoretical support for government and corporate decision-making.
