Organizational Perspectives of Industrial Symbiosis: A Review and Synthesis
Abstract
Industrial symbiosis (IS) is a collaborative environmental action whereby firms share or exchange by-products, materials, energy, or waste as a way to economically reduce aggregate environmental impact. Research in IS has flourished over the past two decades, and the time is ripe for a coherent review of organizational perspectives on the topic, particularly since the practice of IS is rife with difficulties often attributed to “social” factors. We review the organizational perspectives found in IS literature using a two-dimensional framework considering the antecedents, consequences, lubricants, and limiters of IS assessed through institutional, network/system, organizational, and individual levels of analysis. Our framework highlights what organizational perspectives have been adopted so far and also points to avenues of future scholarship of this unique phenomenon.

“…how firms conceive of IS as a way of developing internal value and expertise, including managing by-products and wastes as potentially valuable resources (Aragon-Correa & Sharma, 2003; Baker & Nelson, 2005) and the types of environmental capabilities that may develop (Walls, Phan, & Berrone, 2011).”

“More formally, IS occurs when firms collaborate in the exchange, sharing, and/or reprocessing of excess materials, energy/utilities, water, and by-products from one firm into the production feedstock of another with the underlying goal of economically reducing their aggregate environmental impacts (Chertow, 2000).”

“Thus, IS research may provide insight into how individual firms can engage in environmental, collaborative, and network-based strategic action more broadly (Capaldo, 2007; Vangen & Huxham, 2012; Wassmer et al., 2014).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
