The rapid development of eco-industrial parks is indicative of one practical pattern of theories and methods in industrial ecology. By using a social network analysis method, we could go into the interior of the network and analyze the structural attributes of it, therefore finding out the management problems in the corresponding eco-industrial park. In this paper, we provide a primary guide to establishing evaluation indicators for an eco-industrial park, including the nodal degree, centralization, density, average distance, core-periphery and cohesive sub-groups, as well as other structural attribute indicators like centralizing and closing degrees of the network, or relations of sub-groups. Through this kind of review, we could provide some theoretical bases for evaluating eco-industrial parks, as well as enrich the technologies and methods for the study of industrial ecology.
