| This thesis confronts the challenge of sustainability problems in traditional industrial production systems which work under linear production routines. It focuses on the industrial ecology approach as one prominent way of addressing those problems. Industrial ecology theory argues for the need of realising circular production routines to overcome the unsustainable linear practices. The overarching principle of industrial ecology thinking is based on achieving the symbiotic resource exchanges among the actors of industrial production systems which can evolve into industrial ecosystems with an analogy to mimic the natural ecosystems. To achieve this, the established routines are subject to some substantial changes, and such changes are related to both technical and social aspects of industrial ecosystems. That also enforces the need to recognise and consider the systemic innovation nature of industrial ecology and calls for a socio-technical approach when studying industrial ecosystems. | |
