Barriers and Enablers for Applying Industrial Ecology and Future Development. 330 $aThis book opens up a critical dimension to the interdisciplinary field of Industrial Ecology (IE) and one of its four areas - Industrial Symbiosis (IS). Presenting the concept of closed-loop thinking, this timely book explains how industries and societies can achieve environmental sustainability, a necessity for today's businesses. Providing a critical review of the definitions and developments of both IE and IS, this study establishes their fundamental role in improving environmental sustainability. The author identifies valuable lessons to be learned and presents conceptual frameworks to guide future IE and IS applications. Transforming industrial systems into closed-loop industrial ecosystems dramatically reduces the negative impact of industrial activities on the environment. Therefore, this book is an important read not only for operations management scholars, but also those who are interested in ensuring an environmentally sustainable future. 606 $aManagement 606 $aBusiness ethics 606 $aBusiness logistics 606 $aIndustries 606 $aInformation technology$xManagement 606 $aManagement 606 $aBusiness Ethics 606 $aSupply Chain Management 606 $aIndustries 606 $aBusiness Process Management 615 0$aManagement. 615 0$aBusiness ethics. 615 0$aBusiness logistics. 615 0$aIndustries. 615 0$aInformation technology$xManagement. 615 14$aManagement. 615 24$aBusiness Ethics. 615 24$aSupply Chain Management. 615 24$aIndustries. 615 24$aBusiness Process Management. 676 $a658.408 700 $aLi$b Xiaohong$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0973932 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298180503321 996 $aIndustrial Ecology and Industry Symbiosis for Environmental Sustainability$92526463 997 $aUNINA
