Abstract
This paper reviews the Industrial Ecology concept of Industrial Symbiosis as a key strategy in Green Manufacturing. Industrial Symbiosis is described as a resource efficiency approach where unused or residual resources (material, energy, water, waste, assets, logistics, expertise etc.) of one company are used by another. This results in mutual economic, social, and environmental benefits and how it can be applied for sustainable waste management in manufacturing industries. The resource synergy amongst the organisations has the potential to increase the operational stability especially in areas where resources are scarce and constrained. It also evaluates how it has emerged as a global phenomenon in the assessment of environmental performance of an industrial system practicing Green Manufacturing in the drive towards a Circular Economy. In addition, the barriers faced in the implementation of Industrial Symbiosis is reviewed.
