Abstract
Rapid urbanization in China in recent years has led to a dramatic increase in the number of construction engineering projects and amount of construction waste, and the resource utilization of construction waste is an effective way to low-carbon and energy conservation construction. However, the nation has experienced a low utilization rate of construction waste resources, slow development of its construction waste recycling industry chain in various areas, low coordination of various stakeholders in the industry chain, and incomplete industry chain management. Therefore, in this study, a game model is first used to analyze the decision-making game and its stability strategy among multiple stakeholders in the recycling of construction waste. An income matrix of the three parties, i.e., the government, construction companies, and recycling enterprises, in the construction waste industry chain is then established and the Jacobi matrix used to obtain their evolution and stability strategy (economic incentives, green production, and scale-up). Finally, conclusions are drawn from the simulation analysis of the model: (1) The ratio between fine and subsidy should be reasonably controlled such that the recycling of construction waste by the construction companies is positively related to government supervision. (2) The inflow of renewable products into the market should be promoted to change the perception of the public. (3) A new mode of construction waste management should be developed to link various stakeholders in the industry chain. This study provides scientific and reasonable management suggestions in line with the actual situation of China and provides a useful reference for local government to choose appropriate policies to address the problem of construction waste recycling industry chain.
