Eighty-five Alberta businesses and other participants were invited to an informational meeting in September 1998. By January 1999, a core group of industries and organisations had been mobilised and the data collection was initiated in February. Participants identified more than 80 potential synergies with more than 30 different materials. Many in the group had been aware of these synergy ideas, but found that the by-product synergy project had propelled them into activating the synergy ideas (Applied Sustainability (n.d.); Dias et al. 2001).
The following regional synergy examples are documented in this database:
By-Product Synergies
Utility Synergies

We would be interested to learn from other case study examples that could be added to this database:
