Abstract
This paper innovatively proposes the concept of industrial structure ecology, and measures and compares the industrial structure ecology level of Fujian, Jiangxi and Ningxia. Firstly, it builds the index system to measure the industrial structure ecology level of industrial structure ecology efficiency for each province. This index system contains three levels, taking into account the overall economic growth, energy saving and environmental protection objectives. Furthermore, this research quantitatively measures the level of industrial structure ecology from 2006 to 2012 of three provinces including Fujian, Jiangxi and Ningxia, which can well represent China's eastern, central and western area, and then this research horizontally compares similarities and differences of the three provinces in the evolution process of the industrial structure ecology. The results show that there are significant differences of industrial structure ecology degree in Fujian, Jiangxi and Ningxia, and different ecological performance in various industrial sectors. China's industrial structure ecological transformation has different situations and tasks in the eastern, central and western area. In order to promote the process of industrial structure ecology, each province should expand the using scale of clean energy, chang the discharging and using patterns of waste, and promot the development of industries to have a high ecological performare.
