This book addresses the specialized topic of input-output models
for sustainable industrial systems. While these models are
well-established tools for economic analysis, their underlying
mathematical structure is also applicable to the analysis and
optimization of a wide range of systems that are characterized by
linear interdependencies among their components. This means that
input-output models can be used for diverse networks, such as
processes within industrial plants, industrial plants in a supply
chain, or departmental units within an organization. The models can
also be readily extended to interactions between man-made systems
and the environment, e.g. flows of natural resources and/or
pollutants. Furthermore, model variants with excess degrees of
freedom can be formulated to allow optimization and decision-making
to be integrated within the framework. This book examines how
input-output models can be applied to sustainable industrial
systems. Each major variant is discussed separately in a dedicated
chapter, and representative case studies and supporting LINGO code
are also included.
