Join the Center for Sustainable Infrastructure as we learn about local Industrial Symbiosis initiatives underway in the Pacific Northwest, from the leaders who’ve helped drive them forward. Industrial symbiosis is a ground-breaking approach to industrial development where one facility’s wastes – energy, water, materials – become valuable resource inputs for other facilities. It offers rich economic, environmental and community benefits by making greater use of resources already in the community. While a diverse set of at least 10 communities, spanning much of Washington and Oregon, are actively pursuing industrial symbiosis, you’ll learn about three of the leading initiatives – in Wenatchee, Pasco, and Boardman. Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of the industrial symbiosis concept, active projects in the PNW, and deeper connections to the growing industrial symbiosis network.
