Abstract
Creating an index for Sustainability/Sustainable Development (S/SD) in an industrial estate is important although many researchers, academicians, and industrialists have discussed S/SD. The main challenge is estimating the S/SD index among different industries in an industrial estate. The main objective of this chapter is to present a framework to model and assess an index of S/SD within an industrial estate with a group of different industries. An illustrative example is used to illustrate the proposed framework.
