Industrial Symbiosis Platforms

Dears,

I’m new to ISIE, and I’m very happy to participate in the industrial ecology community.

I am a master's student studying industrial waste in Brazil, and my research focuses on industrial symbiosis in an industrial hub located in one of the most industrialized cities in my state. My objective is to study the exchange of waste between these industries, which I have already mapped.

Do you know of any waste exchange platforms that effectively utilize industrial symbiosis? I recognize the challenge of maintaining long-term collaboration, as partners often stop working together after a while. How can this barrier be overcome?

Thank you for your time!

Best regards,
Selma
