Introduction：
Industrial symbiosis is an association between two or more industrial facilities or companies in which the wastes or byproducts of one become the raw materials for another. In this presentation, I will show that data-driven analysis can potentially be used to optimize the sustainable solutions intended to reduce the resource and emission intensities of industrial systems.
