The study examines environmental costs/benefits of the relocation of the pollution-intensive ceramics industry, from Foshan City (5.9 million) to Qingyuan City (3.6 million) in Guangdong Province. The cost of illness, the human capital approach and years lost due to disability were used to evaluate health costs/benefits. The relocation of ceramic production along with strict controls on emissions would constitute an effective use of environmental capacity.1 digital file (56 p. : ill.)enPOLLUTION CONTROLINDUSTRIAL WASTESENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTSCHINAENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMICSAIR POLLUTIONAIR QUALITYHEALTH CONDITIONSDEMOGRAPHICSENVIRONMENTAL HEALTHFAR EAST ASIAIDRC Final Report
