Roadmap to Develop an Industrial Symbiosis Platform
摘要
The textile industry is one of the most environmentally impactful sectors globally. Companies actively embrace circular economy approaches in response to their ecological footprint, reshaping production patterns towards sustainability. A notable strategy involves the implementation of industrial symbioses, where the waste generated by one company becomes a valuable resource for another. However, to create this symbiotic relationship between organizations, it is crucial to have a solution to enable that. Current symbiosis platforms often lack essential features for optimal functionality. This chapter introduces a cutting-edge smart symbiosis platform tailored to the textile industry to address this challenge. This platform addresses the shortcomings of existing solutions found in a previous study and presents innovative features crucial for fostering symbiotic relationships. It presents an overview of the entire solution, the most relevant features, and their scalability, intelligence and interoperable capability.
