Circular economy which promotes to be in harmony with the natural environment is an economic development mode. The goal of this kind of economic development mode is to achieve the maximization of resource utilization and minimize the waste discharge. Circular mode of economic development is considered to be fundamental resolution on the sharp conflict between environment and development for a long time, and it can realize harmonious development between human and nature. As a micro-object in economic activities, enterprise plays an important role, which can not be replaced, in circular economy. Enterprise is the basis of the whole society developing circular economy. Developing circular economy can not be separated from enterprises while the development of circular economy in enterprises determines the result of circular economic constructions on the whole society. Therefore, the research on the development of circular economy in enterprises has important theoretical and practical significance.Firstly, the dissertation discusses the theoretical basis for circular economy, including sustainable development theory, theory of industrial ecology, system science, business evolution theory, extension of the production responsibility system and so on. These theories study the development of circular economy for enterprises, and provide a theoretical support for building a circular business mode. There is a great contrast on business behavior between under the traditional system and under the circular economy: the pursuit of business objectives is from maximizing their own profits into combining economic benefits with ecological benefits. Under the condition of circular economy, enterprises should consciously put the value of environmental resources into the system of production accounting. Circular economy is the important basis of establishing decision-making and measuring the benefit of enterprises. Under this kind of economic mode, enterprises must apply such circular economic technologies as reducing technology, reuse technology, resource technology. The improvement of environmental quality and economic efficiency of circular enterprises can be achieved at the same time. Under the circular economy, the factors of resources and environment are put into the production function of enterprises. The behaviors of enterprises are optimized under the condition of computing the cost of resources and environment, so it is quite different from the traditional enterprises.The development of circular economy for enterprises not only has positive external characteristics but also face some challenges: rising costs, technical limitations, price barriers and so on. To develop circular economy, we should bring market-based regulation, the guidance and supervision of government into full play, we should regard the interests of all parties as an important link to connect all the main objects, and then establish coordinated mechanisms. This dissertation analyzes the power mechanism of the development of circular economy for enterprises and constructs a multi-objects game model among a government, consumers and businesses. By analyzing the model, the conclusions are as follows: the external behavior of the main choices (the strategy of government and consumers) determines the choices of production behaviors; because there is a pseudo-adverse selection when consumers are facing with green products and fake green products, government has to intervene on the consumer market. The government can also encourage enterprises to develop circular economy by taking some effective means such as subsidies and incentives, monitoring and other means.Foreign companies have formed a successful mode of circular economy, such as DuPont mode and Kalumborg mode, there is a certain reference and guide for promoting circular economy of enterprises. The common points of circular economy modes of enterprises are as follows: cleaning production is the core, recycling technology is the key point, recycling of resources is a goal, industry chain is a link. In the process of developing circular economy, some enterprises applied the cleaning production technology successfully aiming at the features of the industry and specific circumstances of themselves, established a horizontal pattern of circular economy between industrial systems and different processes in different sectors of the symbiosis. According to the business circular industrial chain formed by the power source, the combination of methods, different linkage, the types of circular business modes can be divided into five-business modes, including the development of mineral resources-oriented, outward radiation-based, technology-driven innovation, enterprise self-extended and the processing of renewable resources.The core of developing circular economy for enterprises is to promote the cleaning production. This dissertation analyzes the theoretical basis of cleaning production. The motivation for enterprises to promote the cleaning production is because of the pressure from market competition, incentive and restraint from the relevant actors in the enterprises. While the resistances for enterprises are high fixed capital investment, asymmetric information, lacking enough investment on the supervision of cleaning production. The benefits for businesses to promote the technology are as follows, increasing productivity, upgrading technology, increasing exports and enhancing competitiveness. In this dissertation, the conservation of resources, products eco-design, cleaning production and the strategy of ISO14000 management integration are also discussed.Establishing a science evaluating guideline system is in favor of evaluating circular economy of enterprise objectively and supervising the development of enterprise circular economy. By deeply studying the internal and external relevant evaluating guidelines, the dissertation constructs the comprehensive evaluation mode of enterprise circular economy, and designs the evaluating grade of enterprise comprehensive capability to make true, objective, and fair evaluation on the situation of the enterprise developing circular economy. Finally, it summaries the whole dissertation and presents the measures for enterprise to develop circular economy.
