Abstract :
As one way to approach industrial symbiosis, environmental infrastructure sharing is principally
concerned with providing an integrated environmental utility system for clustered firms. It is based on the
assumption that environmental infrastructure sharing can improve the regional competitive advantage by
reducing overall cost and improving environmental performance. In order to verify the assumption, the
research examines the cost-effectiveness of waste water treatment system of China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial
Park between the isolated model and sharing one. The results show that the sharing mode can greatly reduce the
overall cost and furthermore provide competitive advantage comparing to the isolated one. In addition, it also
improves the overall environmental performance and enforces the cooperation among clustered companies,
which creates a good integrated image and attracts more and more excellent enterprises to join in.
