2. Methodology
In the first phase, the information about the water environment
and social economy of the base year (2010) should be well
investigated and clarified, as well as some initial modeling assumptions,
and the selection of environmental and economic
indicators. In the second phase, modeling, the water pollution
control policies will be introduced into the model based on sufficient
pre-analysis of the pollution characteristics and industrial
structure of the target area. In the last phase, the OPC will be
formed, and the impacts of policies and industrial restructuring
on water pollution control and social economy will be evaluated.
An empirical study taking a basin as the target area will be conducted
to demonstrate the reliability and applicability of this
model.
