[Evolution of Material Metabolism in China's Pulp and Paper Industry].

The pulp and paper industry is an important industry that is closely related to national socioeconomic development. To understand the historical trends of resource consumption and environmental pollution, we conducted an economy-wide material flow analysis and quantitatively evaluated the dynamic characteristics of input-output balances, material metabolism intensity, and resource recycling rate of China's pulp and paper industry, from 2005 to 2017. The results indicate downward trends in the material inputs and outputs of China's pulp and paper industry from 2005 to 2017, with water contributing over 90% of the totals.

[Phosphorus flow analysis of civil food production and consumption system].

With the method of substance flow analysis (SFA), the study provided an analytical framework for phosphorus cycle on civil food production and consumption system that was demonstrated by four life stages-food production, food processing, consumption and waste handling. Furthermore, a case study was carried out in Hefei City, for the year 2008. The SFA results show that the total demand of phosphorus reaches 5 475.
