2. What is Industrial Symbiosis? © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
Symbiosis Definition: ‘An interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association to the advantage of both’ Concise Oxford Dictionary, 8 th Edition © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
What is Industrial Symbiosis? • Numerous academic definitions. . . In essence: • Industrial symbiosis is a systems approach to a more sustainable and integrated industrial economy that identifies business opportunities to improve resource utilisation (materials, energy, water, capacity, expertise, assets etc) Source: Lombardi and Laybourn (2012) Journal of Industrial Ecology 16(1) © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
Industrial Symbiosis Advances Sustainability Transition towards a circular system Linear system Natural Resources Products Natural Resources Waste to Waste Products Resource Natural Resources • Change the perception of industries • Enhancing business benefits and opportunities • Increase environmental benefits © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
Industrial Symbiosis & The Waste Hierarchy IS works to keep resources in the top 3 levels of the Waste Hierarchy “The higher the level, the greater the cost saving” © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
3. Models of delivery © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
Drivers for Industrial Symbiosis • • • Volatility of resource pricing Mc. Kinsey report, Resource Revolution At risk critical raw materials Rising awareness of sustainability issues Carbon Trading to include Scope 3 embedded emissions Climate Change Mitigation Imperative for practical approaches to create growth © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
Economic impact of Industrial Symbiosis • Micro: Individual businesses – • Reduced cost of raw materials • Reduced cost of waste disposal • Revenue from new products • Leading to increased profits and competitiveness • Macro: Economy – • Return on investment for Government • Stimulates (eco-) innovation • Control of critical materials © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
2013 Global Green Growth Forum Public Private Partnerships Public Sector creates the context to enable IS • Regulation • Investment • Address externalities (e. g. price of carbon, water) Private Sector actions the synergies for green growth • Technologies • Resources © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014 • Demand-pull eco-innovation • Investment
Elements of Industrial Symbiosis • Network of diverse organisations • Fostering eco-innovation and long-term culture change • Yielding profitable transactions in: − Novel sourcing of inputs − Value-added destinations for non-product outputs − Improved business and technical processes Lombardi & Laybourn, 2012, Journal of Industrial Ecology 16(1): 28 -37 © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
Models of Industrial Symbiosis Differ in. . . • • • Lifetime/Duration Driver/Initial impulse Role of facilitation Scale Funding mechanism But share. . . • Economic, environmental and social benefits • Cross-sector engagement © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
Models of Industrial Symbiosis Funding mechanisms • • • Public investment – large scale, inclusive Industrial Association – smaller scale, may be sector specific Single private investor – alignment to investor aims Fund manager – Identify investment drivers, economic drivers Managed natural alliance – Geographically based, replication issues Commercial – new thinking required for scale • Level and type of facilitation can differ between and within different models © International Synergies Limited Version date 08 April 2014
