Potential till industriell symbios : Kartläggning av industriella synergier i syfte att öka resurseffektiviteten längs Norrlandskusten
The concept of industrial symbiosis aspires to increase regional resource efficiency by correlating traditionally separate industrial corporation towards a common goal regarding economic benefits and reduced environmental influence.

The concept of industrial symbiosis aspires to increase regional resource efficiency by correlating traditionally separate industrial corporation towards a common goal regarding economic benefits and reduced environmental influence. The aim of this study was to determine the potential to industrial symbiosis within communities along the coast of northern Sweden, evaluating the possibility to increase the regional resource efficiency. Initially, eleven communities were evaluated regarding two validated indicators, industrial diversity and economic yield. Two considered communities, Umeå and Örnsköldsvik acquired the most promising values and were hence selected to be included further in the study. In order to evaluate the potential to industrial symbiosis, information regarding the industrial material and energy flows associated with the two were retrieved and analyzed.
