Objectives

The course aims to complete the economic-business training of the student with theoretical-methodological and applicative contents useful to deepen, in an eco-industrial perspective, the problems related to the analysis and development of industrial symbiosis systems at various sectoral and territorial scales as well as to the assessment of the environmental impact.

Acquirable skills (Part A):

Knowledge and understanding
- illustrate the basic elements of production in an input-output system perspective;
- describe the main environmental criticalities of industrial production

Autonomy of judgment
- linking economic-business and environmental aspects of industrial production
- recognize and know how to apply the most appropriate industrial symbiosis solutions to the various production contexts

Communication skills
- effectively use the technical terminology related to the problems related to Industrial Symbiosis.

Contents

The course aims at providing the methodological and operational bases for the analysis and the implementation of collaborative strategies for the synergic management of material and energy flows between productive entities, commonly defined Industrial Symbiosis (IS) ad also the methodologies for the environmental impact assessment of products and processes.
In particular, in the Part A (3CFU) the main approaches to the development of IS and the most widespread modeling and representation tools will be illustrated with the aim of implementing "input-output matching" solutions.
For the Part B please refer to the program “Industrial Symbiosis laboratory - Part B (prof.Ioannis Arzoumanidis).
