Jiaozuo is a typical resource-based city and its economic transformation has been an example of success in China Howeverquantitative evaluation of the cityrsquos development has scarcely been performed and future development is not clear Because ofthis using the relevant data from 1999 to 2013 this paper uses the data envelopment analysis (DEA)model to evaluate developmentafter the transformation of Jiaozuo with the aim of providing a basis for its future developing plan The results show that DEAwas effective in 2000 2004 2006 2010 and 2012 was weakly effective in 1999 2001 2002 2003 and 2013 and was ineffective in2005 2007 2008 2009 and 2011 By evaluating the development of Jiaozuo this paper provides policy implications for Jiaozuorsquossustainable development and it may serve as a reference for the sustainable development of Chinarsquos other resources-based cities
1 Introduction
The sustainable development of resource-based cities has animportant influence on the development of Chinarsquos citiesPromoting sustainable development of resources-based citiesis an important measure to protect the supply of resourcesand maintain sustainable and healthy development for thenational economy With the current rise in economic uncer-tainty and the imbalance of the domestic economy coordi-nation and sustainability have become important and thesustainable development of resource-based cities faces severechallenges It is difficult to accelerate economic developmentand achieve sustainable development It is important tochange the predicament and realize the importance of thesustainable development of resource-based cities at a nationalsustainable development strategy According to statisticaldata there are 262 resource-based cities in China whichaccount for 40 of the total number of cities [1] Presently67 cities of the 262 resource-based cities are in recession
In 2002 The 16th Party Congress made the strategicdecision to support cities and areas mainly engaged in the
exploitation of natural resources in their efforts to developalternative industries [2] In 2007 the State Council pro-posed several ideas to promote the sustainable develop-ment of resource-based cities including a guiding ideologybasic principles and objectives to promote the sustainabledevelopment of resource-based cities [3] In 2013 the StateCouncil issued a plan for the sustainable development ofnational resource-based cities which mentioned that Chinawould have resolved or basically resolved the issues facedby the resource-recession cities left behind by history andsignificantly enhanced the capability of sustainable develop-ment and essentially completed the transformation by 2020China would have mostly achieved the coordination betweenresources and socioeconomic development in resource-basedcities [1]
Jiaozuo a city in theHenan province is a typical resource-based city which used to be known as the ldquocoal cityrdquo andwhere the added value from the resource industry at one timeaccounted for more than 80 of the added value from allindustries However due to the depletion of coal and the riseof the single industry structure the average annual economic

growth rate of Jiaozuo was only 35 in the ldquo9th five-yearrdquoperiod
Jiaozuorsquos GDP fell by 16 and financial revenue fell by24 in 1999 and the entire city was in urgent need oftransformation In March 2008 with the approval of theState Council Jiaozuo as a representative resource-exhaustedcity in the central region was chosen as one of the first12 resource-exhausted cities bringing opportunities for thesustainable development to the city [4] In just a few yearsthe development of the entire city of Jiaozuo has seen a sharpeconomic upturn However contradictions in the industrialstructural still exist The proportion of industries that aretertiary industry is 20 below the national the multifaceteddevelopment of the industrial system has not yet come tofruition in Jiaozuo Based on this background this paperevaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo to providefor a reference for the sustainable development of otherresource-based cities
2 Literature Review
21 The Development of Resource-Based Cities Internationalresearch on resource-based cities began in the 1930s withthe pioneering efforts of Innis a Canadian scholar [5]Subsequently in the 1960s oil gradually replaced coal andcoal resource-based cities fell into recession With this thetransformation and sustainable development of resource-based cities became the focus of study among many scholarsForeign studies on resource-based cities were mainly con-ducted in developed countries such as the United States [6ndash8] Germany [9 10] Canada [11] Australia [12] and othermining countries Successful examples were found mainly inthe Ruhr industrial region in Germany the Welsh region inthe United Kingdom Lorraine in France and Kitakyushuin Japan Studies were mainly based on the principles ofphilosophy sociology [13 14] and demography [15 16] aswell as transformation and sustainable development [17 18]
After the reform and opening up China began to conductresearch on resource-based cities Li [19] conducted an in-depth analysis of the development of coal resource-basedcities in 1978 and was considered to be the pioneer ofresearch on resource-based cities Subsequently with theproblems of resource-based cities continuously emerging andintensifying theoretical research on the transformation ofresource-based cities and sustainable development graduallytook off and generally concentrates on the following aspects
First researchers studied the adjustment optimizationand transformation of the economic structure (industrialstructure) of a particular resource-based city or a regionincludingWu and Ye [20] Liu [21] Dong et al [22] and Songand Man [23] These studies assessed the difficulties in theindustrial structure transformation of resource-based citiesand discussed countermeasures based on the characteristicsof the resource-based cities
Second researchers studied the transformation and sus-tainable development of resource-based cities Based oncases of circular economies in resource-based cities Li andZhang [24] established a circular economy evaluation indexsystem for resource-based cities using resources economy
environment and society to evaluate the main factors thataffect the circular economy of resource-based cities TakingKaramay a city in Xingjiang as an example Zhang and Gao[25] quantitatively evaluated the sustainable developmentcapacity of Karamay with AHPmethodsThe study indicatedthat Karamay was at a weak stage of sustainable developmentand that its sustainable development capacity was relativelyweak Li et al [26] found deficiencies in the process ofpolicy implementation and provided recommendations toimprove transition performance and sustainable develop-ment in resource-based cities Using environmental pro-duction technology and a Malmquist resource performanceindex (MRPI) Dong et al [27] conducted tests on thetransformation performance of 21 resource-based cities inChina The results indicated that MRPI did not follow thesame trends as three Chinese regions that were experiencingeconomic growth Hong and Kai [28] used small industrialmining cities in Shanxi province to propose relevant strate-gies for sustainable development primarily analyzing theirfunctional transformation and various problems during theirsustainable development efforts
For resource-based cities Xu [30] built a three-tieredindication system and put forward an appraisal model whichcombined AHP and statistics to evaluate Jiaozuorsquos sustainabledevelopment Feng [31] studied the development of tourismin Jiaozuo and indicated that Jiaozuo tourism was at thedevelopment stage according to lifecycle model theory Chenet al [32] recognized the potential of coal as a resource thatshould be utilized Moreover the circulation utilization ofcoal should be performed and the aluminum industry andtraveling industry should be greatly developed Based on theecological carrying capacity theory and analytic hierarchyprocess Chang et al [33] calculated an ecological resilienceindex ecological carrying index and ecological pressingindex and they emphasized air pollution as a factor to analyzeand evaluate the ecological carrying capacity of Jiaozuo Theresults showed that Jiaozuo had relatively stable high andhigh-pressure carrying capacity
22 Sustainable Development Evaluation As there are differ-ences in the sustainable development of resource-based citiesand other cities this paper reviews the evaluation indexes andmethods used in comprehensive sustainable developmentresearch
Foreign research on evaluation indexes in sustainabledevelopment was conducted earlier and more comprehen-sively However as foreign resource-based cities and townsbegan to experience transformation in the 1960s and 1970sthe indexes of sustainable development were not perfectThus foreign research on evaluation indexes in sustainabledevelopment is rare generally due to three factors Firstfrom the perspective of ecology and economics Moffatt [34]deemed that ecological indicators could move towards sus-tainable development Rees andWackernagel [35] recognizedthat ecological footprints were key to urban sustainabilitySecond from the perspective of sociology several indicatorswere used including the Human Development Indicators(HDI) Genuine Progress Indicators (GPI) and Indexes ofSustainable Economic Welfare (ISEW) in United Nations

Development Program (UNDP) [36] Third speaking fromthe perspective of the system scholars believe that sustainabledevelopment is a complex system of ldquoeconomy society andenvironmentrdquo Giddings et al [37] recognized that the econ-omy the environment and humans were interconnected andthat they depended on each other Based on the perspectiveof the economy society resources population and environ-ment Li [38] Wu and Cheng [39] and Shi [40] and Xu[41] built an index system model of sustainable developmentto estimate the sustainable development of resource-basedcities
Regarding the evaluation methods used in comprehen-sive sustainable development research different scholarsutilize different methods such as the fuzzy comprehensive
evaluation method analytic hierarchy process principalcomponent analysis gray correlation analysis method anddata envelopment analysis (DEA) Ravetz [42] used anintegrated assessment (IA) approach tomap linkages betweenenvironmental economic and social factors Using the fuzzyversion of the TOPSIS method Zavadskas and Antuchevi-ciene [43] assumed that a multicriteria analysis was anappropriate technique to ensure sustainability Using the datafrom 1995 to 2000 in Jixi city Hao andDai [44] chose entropyto estimate the sustainable development of coal-based citiesThe estimation results were in agreement with the actualconditions W Li and J Li [45] utilized the DEA modelto compare Shanxirsquos transformational efficiency The resultsshowed that the DEAmodel was both objective and effectiveWen and Li [46] produced a fuzzy DEA model based oncredibility measure The hybrid algorithm combined withfuzzy simulation and genetic algorithmwas designed to solvethe fuzzy model Wen et al [47] carried out some researchesto DEA under fuzzy environment The paper also providedan example to illustrate the fuzzy DEA model and therankingmethod Hajiagha et al [48] transformed the originalDEAmodel to an equivalent linear parametric programmingmodel using the notion of 120572-cuts The paper examined theapplication of the proposedmodel in twonumerical examplesand the results were compared with two current fuzzy DEAmodels Liu et al [49] used a network clustering method tomake a research front in DEA during the period from 2000to 2014 The study also updated the main paths and authorstatistics of DEA development

twentieth century while it was still difficult to explorethe sustainable development of most resource-basedcities in China Presently the new contradiction inresource-based cities is emerging and the pressuresof sustainable development are great In some areasthe intensity of development is too high the com-prehensive utilization of resources is too low and theecological environment has been seriously destroyedAlthough Jiaozuo has left the plight of developmentit still faces the challenges of achieving develop-ment harmony between the economy society andenvironment Therefore it is necessary to explore thechallenges to sustainable development in resource-based cities in the 13th five-year period
(2) Although domestic studies on sustainable develop-ment evaluation indexes have been conducted it is
not so much that quantitative research on Jiaozuois lacking rather it is a lack of objective andeffective evaluation Compared to other evaluationmethods DEA has the following advantages overother methods (1) It is superior in the evaluationof effectiveness especially for the multi-input andmultioutput systems (2) It is not necessary to treatthe raw data as nondimensional and set weightswhich is very objective DEA analysis is simple andclear and with the projection analysis the non-DEAeffective decision-making unit can be changed intoa DEA effective decision-making unit which canimprove the non-DEA direction for decision makersConsidering the advantages of DEA the paper usesDEA to assess the sustainable development of Jiaozuowhich complements existing research
3 Model and Data
31 DEA DEA was proposed by Charnes Cooper andRhodes in 1978 and it was used to assess the relativeeffectiveness of departments The first model by CharnesCooper and Rhodes is named C2R This model is used tostudy multi-inputs and especially multioutputs [50] Bankeret al put forward the BC2 model [51] Then Charnes et aldeveloped the C2GS2 model [52] and Fare and Grosskopfproposed the FG model [53] Subsequently C2W [54] andC2WH [55] were also proposed As C2R cannot assess thepure technical efficiency of the DMU the paper uses BC2 toevaluate the sustainable development of Jiaozuo
Suppose that there are 119899 decision-making units (DMUs)and these 119899 units are comparable Each department or unithas 119898 types of input (the resource consumption of the unit)and 119904 types of output (the output after resource consumptionof the unit)

DEA The positive results obtained are used as the inputand output of DEA The comprehensive efficiency analysisof the sustainable development the sustainable developmentability 120579 value and the results of the sustainable developmentanalysis of Jiaozuo are shown in Tables 9 and 10 and inFigure 3
From Tables 9 and 10 and Figure 3 and above it can beobserved that DEA was effective in 2000 2004 2006 2010and 2012 showing that technology and scale during these fiveyears were effective The comprehensive efficiency is 1 whichindicated that scale benefit did not change The input andoutput were reasonable and the development produced highefficiency and stability The results showed DEA was weaklyeffective in 1999 2001 2002 2003 and 2013 which suggestedthat only technology was effective and scale was ineffective
(2) Analysis on the Redundant Input and Insufficient OutputDEA was ineffective in 2005 2007 2008 2009 and 2011which showed that technology and scale during these fiveyears were not effective and sustainable development was noton track In Table 11 it can be observed that the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive during these fiveyears which showed that there was a certain energy-saving

5 Conclusions and Implications
Utilizing the DEA model and data from 1999 to 2013 thispaper evaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo andthe effectiveness of technology and scale Additionally thispaper analyzes the redundant input and insufficient outputin the five years of ineffective DEA For Jiaozuo this paperputs forward the following recommendations of how toachieve sustainable economic societal and environmentaldevelopment
(1) Figure 3 shows that sustainable development inJiaozuo appears to be in fluctuation which highlightsthat development after the resource-based energyshift is not sustainable Thus the key is to continuethe revitalization of Jiaozuorsquos economy Over the nextfew decades Jiaozuo should continue to vigorouslydevelop tourism moderately develop industry andbuild the characteristics that facilitate tourism inresource-based cities to enable the economy to realizesustainable and rapid development The transfor-mation of Jiaozuo shows that it is not suited toreindustrialization
(2) During the years of ineffective DEA the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive while theoutput was insufficient Therefore Jiaozuo needs toadjust the input during future development avoidingunsustainable development of redundant input andinsufficient output
(3) In the future Jiaozuo should improve the level ofscale and technical efficiency increase investment inscientific research introduce foreign capital and tech-nology promote technological progress and improvethe level of technological innovation to improve thelevel of sustainable development

growth rate of Jiaozuo was only 35 in the ldquo9th five-yearrdquoperiod
Jiaozuorsquos GDP fell by 16 and financial revenue fell by24 in 1999 and the entire city was in urgent need oftransformation In March 2008 with the approval of theState Council Jiaozuo as a representative resource-exhaustedcity in the central region was chosen as one of the first12 resource-exhausted cities bringing opportunities for thesustainable development to the city [4] In just a few yearsthe development of the entire city of Jiaozuo has seen a sharpeconomic upturn However contradictions in the industrialstructural still exist The proportion of industries that aretertiary industry is 20 below the national the multifaceteddevelopment of the industrial system has not yet come tofruition in Jiaozuo Based on this background this paperevaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo to providefor a reference for the sustainable development of otherresource-based cities
2 Literature Review
21 The Development of Resource-Based Cities Internationalresearch on resource-based cities began in the 1930s withthe pioneering efforts of Innis a Canadian scholar [5]Subsequently in the 1960s oil gradually replaced coal andcoal resource-based cities fell into recession With this thetransformation and sustainable development of resource-based cities became the focus of study among many scholarsForeign studies on resource-based cities were mainly con-ducted in developed countries such as the United States [6ndash8] Germany [9 10] Canada [11] Australia [12] and othermining countries Successful examples were found mainly inthe Ruhr industrial region in Germany the Welsh region inthe United Kingdom Lorraine in France and Kitakyushuin Japan Studies were mainly based on the principles ofphilosophy sociology [13 14] and demography [15 16] aswell as transformation and sustainable development [17 18]
After the reform and opening up China began to conductresearch on resource-based cities Li [19] conducted an in-depth analysis of the development of coal resource-basedcities in 1978 and was considered to be the pioneer ofresearch on resource-based cities Subsequently with theproblems of resource-based cities continuously emerging andintensifying theoretical research on the transformation ofresource-based cities and sustainable development graduallytook off and generally concentrates on the following aspects
First researchers studied the adjustment optimizationand transformation of the economic structure (industrialstructure) of a particular resource-based city or a regionincludingWu and Ye [20] Liu [21] Dong et al [22] and Songand Man [23] These studies assessed the difficulties in theindustrial structure transformation of resource-based citiesand discussed countermeasures based on the characteristicsof the resource-based cities
Second researchers studied the transformation and sus-tainable development of resource-based cities Based oncases of circular economies in resource-based cities Li andZhang [24] established a circular economy evaluation indexsystem for resource-based cities using resources economy
environment and society to evaluate the main factors thataffect the circular economy of resource-based cities TakingKaramay a city in Xingjiang as an example Zhang and Gao[25] quantitatively evaluated the sustainable developmentcapacity of Karamay with AHPmethodsThe study indicatedthat Karamay was at a weak stage of sustainable developmentand that its sustainable development capacity was relativelyweak Li et al [26] found deficiencies in the process ofpolicy implementation and provided recommendations toimprove transition performance and sustainable develop-ment in resource-based cities Using environmental pro-duction technology and a Malmquist resource performanceindex (MRPI) Dong et al [27] conducted tests on thetransformation performance of 21 resource-based cities inChina The results indicated that MRPI did not follow thesame trends as three Chinese regions that were experiencingeconomic growth Hong and Kai [28] used small industrialmining cities in Shanxi province to propose relevant strate-gies for sustainable development primarily analyzing theirfunctional transformation and various problems during theirsustainable development efforts
For resource-based cities Xu [30] built a three-tieredindication system and put forward an appraisal model whichcombined AHP and statistics to evaluate Jiaozuorsquos sustainabledevelopment Feng [31] studied the development of tourismin Jiaozuo and indicated that Jiaozuo tourism was at thedevelopment stage according to lifecycle model theory Chenet al [32] recognized the potential of coal as a resource thatshould be utilized Moreover the circulation utilization ofcoal should be performed and the aluminum industry andtraveling industry should be greatly developed Based on theecological carrying capacity theory and analytic hierarchyprocess Chang et al [33] calculated an ecological resilienceindex ecological carrying index and ecological pressingindex and they emphasized air pollution as a factor to analyzeand evaluate the ecological carrying capacity of Jiaozuo Theresults showed that Jiaozuo had relatively stable high andhigh-pressure carrying capacity
22 Sustainable Development Evaluation As there are differ-ences in the sustainable development of resource-based citiesand other cities this paper reviews the evaluation indexes andmethods used in comprehensive sustainable developmentresearch
Foreign research on evaluation indexes in sustainabledevelopment was conducted earlier and more comprehen-sively However as foreign resource-based cities and townsbegan to experience transformation in the 1960s and 1970sthe indexes of sustainable development were not perfectThus foreign research on evaluation indexes in sustainabledevelopment is rare generally due to three factors Firstfrom the perspective of ecology and economics Moffatt [34]deemed that ecological indicators could move towards sus-tainable development Rees andWackernagel [35] recognizedthat ecological footprints were key to urban sustainabilitySecond from the perspective of sociology several indicatorswere used including the Human Development Indicators(HDI) Genuine Progress Indicators (GPI) and Indexes ofSustainable Economic Welfare (ISEW) in United Nations

Development Program (UNDP) [36] Third speaking fromthe perspective of the system scholars believe that sustainabledevelopment is a complex system of ldquoeconomy society andenvironmentrdquo Giddings et al [37] recognized that the econ-omy the environment and humans were interconnected andthat they depended on each other Based on the perspectiveof the economy society resources population and environ-ment Li [38] Wu and Cheng [39] and Shi [40] and Xu[41] built an index system model of sustainable developmentto estimate the sustainable development of resource-basedcities

twentieth century while it was still difficult to explorethe sustainable development of most resource-basedcities in China Presently the new contradiction inresource-based cities is emerging and the pressuresof sustainable development are great In some areasthe intensity of development is too high the com-prehensive utilization of resources is too low and theecological environment has been seriously destroyedAlthough Jiaozuo has left the plight of developmentit still faces the challenges of achieving develop-ment harmony between the economy society andenvironment Therefore it is necessary to explore thechallenges to sustainable development in resource-based cities in the 13th five-year period
(2) Although domestic studies on sustainable develop-ment evaluation indexes have been conducted it is
not so much that quantitative research on Jiaozuois lacking rather it is a lack of objective andeffective evaluation Compared to other evaluationmethods DEA has the following advantages overother methods (1) It is superior in the evaluationof effectiveness especially for the multi-input andmultioutput systems (2) It is not necessary to treatthe raw data as nondimensional and set weightswhich is very objective DEA analysis is simple andclear and with the projection analysis the non-DEAeffective decision-making unit can be changed intoa DEA effective decision-making unit which canimprove the non-DEA direction for decision makersConsidering the advantages of DEA the paper usesDEA to assess the sustainable development of Jiaozuowhich complements existing research
3 Model and Data
31 DEA DEA was proposed by Charnes Cooper andRhodes in 1978 and it was used to assess the relativeeffectiveness of departments The first model by CharnesCooper and Rhodes is named C2R This model is used tostudy multi-inputs and especially multioutputs [50] Bankeret al put forward the BC2 model [51] Then Charnes et aldeveloped the C2GS2 model [52] and Fare and Grosskopfproposed the FG model [53] Subsequently C2W [54] andC2WH [55] were also proposed As C2R cannot assess thepure technical efficiency of the DMU the paper uses BC2 toevaluate the sustainable development of Jiaozuo
Suppose that there are 119899 decision-making units (DMUs)and these 119899 units are comparable Each department or unithas 119898 types of input (the resource consumption of the unit)and 119904 types of output (the output after resource consumptionof the unit)

5 Conclusions and Implications
Utilizing the DEA model and data from 1999 to 2013 thispaper evaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo andthe effectiveness of technology and scale Additionally thispaper analyzes the redundant input and insufficient outputin the five years of ineffective DEA For Jiaozuo this paperputs forward the following recommendations of how toachieve sustainable economic societal and environmentaldevelopment
(1) Figure 3 shows that sustainable development inJiaozuo appears to be in fluctuation which highlightsthat development after the resource-based energyshift is not sustainable Thus the key is to continuethe revitalization of Jiaozuorsquos economy Over the nextfew decades Jiaozuo should continue to vigorouslydevelop tourism moderately develop industry andbuild the characteristics that facilitate tourism inresource-based cities to enable the economy to realizesustainable and rapid development The transfor-mation of Jiaozuo shows that it is not suited toreindustrialization
(2) During the years of ineffective DEA the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive while theoutput was insufficient Therefore Jiaozuo needs toadjust the input during future development avoidingunsustainable development of redundant input andinsufficient output
(3) In the future Jiaozuo should improve the level ofscale and technical efficiency increase investment inscientific research introduce foreign capital and tech-nology promote technological progress and improvethe level of technological innovation to improve thelevel of sustainable development

Development Program (UNDP) [36] Third speaking fromthe perspective of the system scholars believe that sustainabledevelopment is a complex system of ldquoeconomy society andenvironmentrdquo Giddings et al [37] recognized that the econ-omy the environment and humans were interconnected andthat they depended on each other Based on the perspectiveof the economy society resources population and environ-ment Li [38] Wu and Cheng [39] and Shi [40] and Xu[41] built an index system model of sustainable developmentto estimate the sustainable development of resource-basedcities
Regarding the evaluation methods used in comprehen-sive sustainable development research different scholarsutilize different methods such as the fuzzy comprehensive
evaluation method analytic hierarchy process principalcomponent analysis gray correlation analysis method anddata envelopment analysis (DEA) Ravetz [42] used anintegrated assessment (IA) approach tomap linkages betweenenvironmental economic and social factors Using the fuzzyversion of the TOPSIS method Zavadskas and Antuchevi-ciene [43] assumed that a multicriteria analysis was anappropriate technique to ensure sustainability Using the datafrom 1995 to 2000 in Jixi city Hao andDai [44] chose entropyto estimate the sustainable development of coal-based citiesThe estimation results were in agreement with the actualconditions W Li and J Li [45] utilized the DEA modelto compare Shanxirsquos transformational efficiency The resultsshowed that the DEAmodel was both objective and effectiveWen and Li [46] produced a fuzzy DEA model based oncredibility measure The hybrid algorithm combined withfuzzy simulation and genetic algorithmwas designed to solvethe fuzzy model Wen et al [47] carried out some researchesto DEA under fuzzy environment The paper also providedan example to illustrate the fuzzy DEA model and therankingmethod Hajiagha et al [48] transformed the originalDEAmodel to an equivalent linear parametric programmingmodel using the notion of 120572-cuts The paper examined theapplication of the proposedmodel in twonumerical examplesand the results were compared with two current fuzzy DEAmodels Liu et al [49] used a network clustering method tomake a research front in DEA during the period from 2000to 2014 The study also updated the main paths and authorstatistics of DEA development

twentieth century while it was still difficult to explorethe sustainable development of most resource-basedcities in China Presently the new contradiction inresource-based cities is emerging and the pressuresof sustainable development are great In some areasthe intensity of development is too high the com-prehensive utilization of resources is too low and theecological environment has been seriously destroyedAlthough Jiaozuo has left the plight of developmentit still faces the challenges of achieving develop-ment harmony between the economy society andenvironment Therefore it is necessary to explore thechallenges to sustainable development in resource-based cities in the 13th five-year period
(2) Although domestic studies on sustainable develop-ment evaluation indexes have been conducted it is
not so much that quantitative research on Jiaozuois lacking rather it is a lack of objective andeffective evaluation Compared to other evaluationmethods DEA has the following advantages overother methods (1) It is superior in the evaluationof effectiveness especially for the multi-input andmultioutput systems (2) It is not necessary to treatthe raw data as nondimensional and set weightswhich is very objective DEA analysis is simple andclear and with the projection analysis the non-DEAeffective decision-making unit can be changed intoa DEA effective decision-making unit which canimprove the non-DEA direction for decision makersConsidering the advantages of DEA the paper usesDEA to assess the sustainable development of Jiaozuowhich complements existing research
3 Model and Data
31 DEA DEA was proposed by Charnes Cooper andRhodes in 1978 and it was used to assess the relativeeffectiveness of departments The first model by CharnesCooper and Rhodes is named C2R This model is used tostudy multi-inputs and especially multioutputs [50] Bankeret al put forward the BC2 model [51] Then Charnes et aldeveloped the C2GS2 model [52] and Fare and Grosskopfproposed the FG model [53] Subsequently C2W [54] andC2WH [55] were also proposed As C2R cannot assess thepure technical efficiency of the DMU the paper uses BC2 toevaluate the sustainable development of Jiaozuo
Suppose that there are 119899 decision-making units (DMUs)and these 119899 units are comparable Each department or unithas 119898 types of input (the resource consumption of the unit)and 119904 types of output (the output after resource consumptionof the unit)

DEA The positive results obtained are used as the inputand output of DEA The comprehensive efficiency analysisof the sustainable development the sustainable developmentability 120579 value and the results of the sustainable developmentanalysis of Jiaozuo are shown in Tables 9 and 10 and inFigure 3
From Tables 9 and 10 and Figure 3 and above it can beobserved that DEA was effective in 2000 2004 2006 2010and 2012 showing that technology and scale during these fiveyears were effective The comprehensive efficiency is 1 whichindicated that scale benefit did not change The input andoutput were reasonable and the development produced highefficiency and stability The results showed DEA was weaklyeffective in 1999 2001 2002 2003 and 2013 which suggestedthat only technology was effective and scale was ineffective
(2) Analysis on the Redundant Input and Insufficient OutputDEA was ineffective in 2005 2007 2008 2009 and 2011which showed that technology and scale during these fiveyears were not effective and sustainable development was noton track In Table 11 it can be observed that the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive during these fiveyears which showed that there was a certain energy-saving

5 Conclusions and Implications
Utilizing the DEA model and data from 1999 to 2013 thispaper evaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo andthe effectiveness of technology and scale Additionally thispaper analyzes the redundant input and insufficient outputin the five years of ineffective DEA For Jiaozuo this paperputs forward the following recommendations of how toachieve sustainable economic societal and environmentaldevelopment
(1) Figure 3 shows that sustainable development inJiaozuo appears to be in fluctuation which highlightsthat development after the resource-based energyshift is not sustainable Thus the key is to continuethe revitalization of Jiaozuorsquos economy Over the nextfew decades Jiaozuo should continue to vigorouslydevelop tourism moderately develop industry andbuild the characteristics that facilitate tourism inresource-based cities to enable the economy to realizesustainable and rapid development The transfor-mation of Jiaozuo shows that it is not suited toreindustrialization
(2) During the years of ineffective DEA the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive while theoutput was insufficient Therefore Jiaozuo needs toadjust the input during future development avoidingunsustainable development of redundant input andinsufficient output
(3) In the future Jiaozuo should improve the level ofscale and technical efficiency increase investment inscientific research introduce foreign capital and tech-nology promote technological progress and improvethe level of technological innovation to improve thelevel of sustainable development

twentieth century while it was still difficult to explorethe sustainable development of most resource-basedcities in China Presently the new contradiction inresource-based cities is emerging and the pressuresof sustainable development are great In some areasthe intensity of development is too high the com-prehensive utilization of resources is too low and theecological environment has been seriously destroyedAlthough Jiaozuo has left the plight of developmentit still faces the challenges of achieving develop-ment harmony between the economy society andenvironment Therefore it is necessary to explore thechallenges to sustainable development in resource-based cities in the 13th five-year period
(2) Although domestic studies on sustainable develop-ment evaluation indexes have been conducted it is
not so much that quantitative research on Jiaozuois lacking rather it is a lack of objective andeffective evaluation Compared to other evaluationmethods DEA has the following advantages overother methods (1) It is superior in the evaluationof effectiveness especially for the multi-input andmultioutput systems (2) It is not necessary to treatthe raw data as nondimensional and set weightswhich is very objective DEA analysis is simple andclear and with the projection analysis the non-DEAeffective decision-making unit can be changed intoa DEA effective decision-making unit which canimprove the non-DEA direction for decision makersConsidering the advantages of DEA the paper usesDEA to assess the sustainable development of Jiaozuowhich complements existing research
3 Model and Data
31 DEA DEA was proposed by Charnes Cooper andRhodes in 1978 and it was used to assess the relativeeffectiveness of departments The first model by CharnesCooper and Rhodes is named C2R This model is used tostudy multi-inputs and especially multioutputs [50] Bankeret al put forward the BC2 model [51] Then Charnes et aldeveloped the C2GS2 model [52] and Fare and Grosskopfproposed the FG model [53] Subsequently C2W [54] andC2WH [55] were also proposed As C2R cannot assess thepure technical efficiency of the DMU the paper uses BC2 toevaluate the sustainable development of Jiaozuo
Suppose that there are 119899 decision-making units (DMUs)and these 119899 units are comparable Each department or unithas 119898 types of input (the resource consumption of the unit)and 119904 types of output (the output after resource consumptionof the unit)
Where for 119895th 119909119894119895is the input of 119894th 119909

DEA The positive results obtained are used as the inputand output of DEA The comprehensive efficiency analysisof the sustainable development the sustainable developmentability 120579 value and the results of the sustainable developmentanalysis of Jiaozuo are shown in Tables 9 and 10 and inFigure 3
From Tables 9 and 10 and Figure 3 and above it can beobserved that DEA was effective in 2000 2004 2006 2010and 2012 showing that technology and scale during these fiveyears were effective The comprehensive efficiency is 1 whichindicated that scale benefit did not change The input andoutput were reasonable and the development produced highefficiency and stability The results showed DEA was weaklyeffective in 1999 2001 2002 2003 and 2013 which suggestedthat only technology was effective and scale was ineffective
(2) Analysis on the Redundant Input and Insufficient OutputDEA was ineffective in 2005 2007 2008 2009 and 2011which showed that technology and scale during these fiveyears were not effective and sustainable development was noton track In Table 11 it can be observed that the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive during these fiveyears which showed that there was a certain energy-saving

5 Conclusions and Implications
Utilizing the DEA model and data from 1999 to 2013 thispaper evaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo andthe effectiveness of technology and scale Additionally thispaper analyzes the redundant input and insufficient outputin the five years of ineffective DEA For Jiaozuo this paperputs forward the following recommendations of how toachieve sustainable economic societal and environmentaldevelopment
(1) Figure 3 shows that sustainable development inJiaozuo appears to be in fluctuation which highlightsthat development after the resource-based energyshift is not sustainable Thus the key is to continuethe revitalization of Jiaozuorsquos economy Over the nextfew decades Jiaozuo should continue to vigorouslydevelop tourism moderately develop industry andbuild the characteristics that facilitate tourism inresource-based cities to enable the economy to realizesustainable and rapid development The transfor-mation of Jiaozuo shows that it is not suited toreindustrialization
(2) During the years of ineffective DEA the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive while theoutput was insufficient Therefore Jiaozuo needs toadjust the input during future development avoidingunsustainable development of redundant input andinsufficient output
(3) In the future Jiaozuo should improve the level ofscale and technical efficiency increase investment inscientific research introduce foreign capital and tech-nology promote technological progress and improvethe level of technological innovation to improve thelevel of sustainable development

From Tables 9 and 10 and Figure 3 and above it can beobserved that DEA was effective in 2000 2004 2006 2010and 2012 showing that technology and scale during these fiveyears were effective The comprehensive efficiency is 1 whichindicated that scale benefit did not change The input andoutput were reasonable and the development produced highefficiency and stability The results showed DEA was weaklyeffective in 1999 2001 2002 2003 and 2013 which suggestedthat only technology was effective and scale was ineffective
(2) Analysis on the Redundant Input and Insufficient OutputDEA was ineffective in 2005 2007 2008 2009 and 2011which showed that technology and scale during these fiveyears were not effective and sustainable development was noton track In Table 11 it can be observed that the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive during these fiveyears which showed that there was a certain energy-saving

5 Conclusions and Implications
Utilizing the DEA model and data from 1999 to 2013 thispaper evaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo andthe effectiveness of technology and scale Additionally thispaper analyzes the redundant input and insufficient outputin the five years of ineffective DEA For Jiaozuo this paperputs forward the following recommendations of how toachieve sustainable economic societal and environmentaldevelopment
(1) Figure 3 shows that sustainable development inJiaozuo appears to be in fluctuation which highlightsthat development after the resource-based energyshift is not sustainable Thus the key is to continuethe revitalization of Jiaozuorsquos economy Over the nextfew decades Jiaozuo should continue to vigorouslydevelop tourism moderately develop industry andbuild the characteristics that facilitate tourism inresource-based cities to enable the economy to realizesustainable and rapid development The transfor-mation of Jiaozuo shows that it is not suited toreindustrialization
(2) During the years of ineffective DEA the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive while theoutput was insufficient Therefore Jiaozuo needs toadjust the input during future development avoidingunsustainable development of redundant input andinsufficient output
(3) In the future Jiaozuo should improve the level ofscale and technical efficiency increase investment inscientific research introduce foreign capital and tech-nology promote technological progress and improvethe level of technological innovation to improve thelevel of sustainable development

DEA The positive results obtained are used as the inputand output of DEA The comprehensive efficiency analysisof the sustainable development the sustainable developmentability 120579 value and the results of the sustainable developmentanalysis of Jiaozuo are shown in Tables 9 and 10 and inFigure 3
From Tables 9 and 10 and Figure 3 and above it can beobserved that DEA was effective in 2000 2004 2006 2010and 2012 showing that technology and scale during these fiveyears were effective The comprehensive efficiency is 1 whichindicated that scale benefit did not change The input andoutput were reasonable and the development produced highefficiency and stability The results showed DEA was weaklyeffective in 1999 2001 2002 2003 and 2013 which suggestedthat only technology was effective and scale was ineffective
(2) Analysis on the Redundant Input and Insufficient OutputDEA was ineffective in 2005 2007 2008 2009 and 2011which showed that technology and scale during these fiveyears were not effective and sustainable development was noton track In Table 11 it can be observed that the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive during these fiveyears which showed that there was a certain energy-saving

5 Conclusions and Implications
Utilizing the DEA model and data from 1999 to 2013 thispaper evaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo andthe effectiveness of technology and scale Additionally thispaper analyzes the redundant input and insufficient outputin the five years of ineffective DEA For Jiaozuo this paperputs forward the following recommendations of how toachieve sustainable economic societal and environmentaldevelopment
(1) Figure 3 shows that sustainable development inJiaozuo appears to be in fluctuation which highlightsthat development after the resource-based energyshift is not sustainable Thus the key is to continuethe revitalization of Jiaozuorsquos economy Over the nextfew decades Jiaozuo should continue to vigorouslydevelop tourism moderately develop industry andbuild the characteristics that facilitate tourism inresource-based cities to enable the economy to realizesustainable and rapid development The transfor-mation of Jiaozuo shows that it is not suited toreindustrialization
(2) During the years of ineffective DEA the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive while theoutput was insufficient Therefore Jiaozuo needs toadjust the input during future development avoidingunsustainable development of redundant input andinsufficient output
(3) In the future Jiaozuo should improve the level ofscale and technical efficiency increase investment inscientific research introduce foreign capital and tech-nology promote technological progress and improvethe level of technological innovation to improve thelevel of sustainable development

DEA The positive results obtained are used as the inputand output of DEA The comprehensive efficiency analysisof the sustainable development the sustainable developmentability 120579 value and the results of the sustainable developmentanalysis of Jiaozuo are shown in Tables 9 and 10 and inFigure 3
From Tables 9 and 10 and Figure 3 and above it can beobserved that DEA was effective in 2000 2004 2006 2010and 2012 showing that technology and scale during these fiveyears were effective The comprehensive efficiency is 1 whichindicated that scale benefit did not change The input andoutput were reasonable and the development produced highefficiency and stability The results showed DEA was weaklyeffective in 1999 2001 2002 2003 and 2013 which suggestedthat only technology was effective and scale was ineffective
(2) Analysis on the Redundant Input and Insufficient OutputDEA was ineffective in 2005 2007 2008 2009 and 2011which showed that technology and scale during these fiveyears were not effective and sustainable development was noton track In Table 11 it can be observed that the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive during these fiveyears which showed that there was a certain energy-saving

5 Conclusions and Implications
Utilizing the DEA model and data from 1999 to 2013 thispaper evaluates the sustainable development of Jiaozuo andthe effectiveness of technology and scale Additionally thispaper analyzes the redundant input and insufficient outputin the five years of ineffective DEA For Jiaozuo this paperputs forward the following recommendations of how toachieve sustainable economic societal and environmentaldevelopment
(1) Figure 3 shows that sustainable development inJiaozuo appears to be in fluctuation which highlightsthat development after the resource-based energyshift is not sustainable Thus the key is to continuethe revitalization of Jiaozuorsquos economy Over the nextfew decades Jiaozuo should continue to vigorouslydevelop tourism moderately develop industry andbuild the characteristics that facilitate tourism inresource-based cities to enable the economy to realizesustainable and rapid development The transfor-mation of Jiaozuo shows that it is not suited toreindustrialization
(2) During the years of ineffective DEA the input ofhuman resource and power was excessive while theoutput was insufficient Therefore Jiaozuo needs toadjust the input during future development avoidingunsustainable development of redundant input andinsufficient output
(3) In the future Jiaozuo should improve the level ofscale and technical efficiency increase investment inscientific research introduce foreign capital and tech-nology promote technological progress and improvethe level of technological innovation to improve thelevel of sustainable development
