What is the SYNER Resource Flow Mapping?
This is a specific strategic tool that is aligned with the priorities of strategies such as the Circular Economy 2030 and that can be implemented quickly, carrying out a detailed mapping of the territory, saving time and research resources, data collection and analysis.
The Resource Flow Mapping is carried out as a service oriented to identify the waste, water and energy surpluses of a territory, as well as the companies that generate them. The objective is to transform this information into concrete possibilities for industrial symbiosis, circular economy and decarbonization. Through the analysis of the urban-agro-industrial ecosystem, this service allows:
- Locate waste streams and underutilized resources
- Know which companies generate them and in what quantities
- Detect opportunities for connection and exploitation between sectors
The results are presented in maps and strategic reports, designed to support planning, investment and decision-making.
How is Resource Mapping carried out?
Resource mapping is carried out using a proprietary digital tool, developed by Símbiosy after more than a decade of implementing industrial symbiosis projects. It is based on artificial intelligence and big data, and integrates the following:
- Historical and sector data
- Advanced statistical models
- Expert knowledge
This allows us to generate reliable estimates even when the available data is limited.
Who is this service aimed at?
Municipalities and public agents
The service can help to:
- Diagnose the urban-agro-industrial ecosystem and its potential
- Design sustainable industrial development strategies
- Guide investment policies with economic, social and environmental impact
- Boost the competitiveness of the local productive fabric through synergies
- Promote resilient, circular and attractive territories for new activities
Companies and productive sectors
It also provides value to companies by allowing:
- Locate more sustainable and innovative suppliers and products
- Detect innovation and decarbonization opportunities
- Make more informed decisions about investments and locations
- Improve the efficiency of the supply chain
In both cases, competitiveness is enhanced through territorial intelligence. A complete and accurate vision of the territorial reality is obtained, which facilitates the identification of development opportunities and challenges for a more efficient management of resources.
The result is visualized in intelligent maps and lists of companies and waste produced:
Why choose Símbiosy’s mapping service?
The Maps of Surplus Resource Flows become the starting information that every territorial industrial symbiosis project should have in order to have the systemic vision necessary to make strategic decisions towards sustainable development.
Mapping becomes a practical tool that has multiple advantages:
- Provides both a strategic and technical approach
- Integrates a territorial, sectorial and multisectorial vision
- It is adaptable to any local context
- It is backed by a multidisciplinary team with experience in circularity and sustainability
Conclusion
The resource mapping allows to identify and quantify the economic value in the flows of waste, water or energy of a territory, and orient it towards more efficient decisions, sustainable investments and new collaboration opportunities. A tool designed for those looking to activate the circular potential of their territory or company quickly and economically.
