Thesis (Ph.D.)--Hong Kong Polytechnic University (Hong Kong), 2011.

The textile manufacturing activities have been seriously criticised for the amount of pollutants they produce. Environmental performance indicator (EPI), which helps in regulating the negative impact brought to the environment, is one effective measure to assist in pursuing optimal balance. However, the existing environmental performance indicators for the textile industry suffer deficiencies from inconsistent framework, lack of comprehensive view and a biased weighting. To fill the present research gap, a Green Index is developed to cater for the textile industry in monitoring environmental performance. The present study is divided into two stages.

520 $a The textile manufacturing activities have been seriously criticised for the amount of pollutants they produce. Environmental performance indicator (EPI), which helps in regulating the negative impact brought to the environment, is one effective measure to assist in pursuing optimal balance. However, the existing environmental performance indicators for the textile industry suffer deficiencies from inconsistent framework, lack of comprehensive view and a biased weighting. To fill the present research gap, a Green Index is developed to cater for the textile industry in monitoring environmental performance. The present study is divided into two stages.
520 $a Stage One is the introduction of a new model in assessing the environmental performance. In developing the Green Index, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), a methodology which has been widely used to measure the efficiency of organisations (also called a decision making unit, DMU) is employed. With increasing public attention in the environment, researchers have started to include undesirable output into the study of DEA which is termed as eco-DEA. There are numerous aspects in incorporating undesirable output in the literature. However, the economic implication and the suitability for the DEA research background of the undesirable output are yet to be seriously investigated and discussed. Thus, a new eco-DEA termed as the Ratio Model is developed from the present study to incorporate both the desirable and undesirable outputs from a new perspective.
520 $a Stage Two is about the establishment of the Green Index which is derived from the newly developed Ratio Model. There are three sub-indices which represent the three undesirable outputs discharged from the textile industry: polluted air, wastewater and solid waste. They are summed up to give the Green Index in the end. With four different scenarios, the Green Index monitors the environmental performance of China's textile industry at national and provincial (Jiangsu) levels and the textile products studied are yarn, cloth and chemical fibre. China is adopted since it plays a significant role as the world's exporter of textile products. It would be of interest to examine how the Chinese textile industry is performing from an environmental point of view.
