Abstract
Concept of eco-industrial park (EIP) has been introduced to several countries in the world as a result of several researches and projects on EIP have been implemented. Unfortunately, so far it seems no methods to evaluate whether existing industrial zones (IZs) achieving characteristics of EIP model are available. Very few even no authors mentioned about this. Therefore the paper concentrates on analyzing and composing a criteria and indicator system to evaluate and grade level of achievement of eco-industrial park model applied for existing industrial zone in Ho Chi Minh City and Vietnam. The result of this study provides a useful tool for both scientists and manager to evaluate and develop proper action plan for existing IZs moving towards EIP.
