description This paper considers the potential contribution of Industrial Symbiosis in fostering environmental and economical benefits in the area of Nea Karvali, Kavala, Greece. Industrial Symbiosis describes the mutualistic interaction of different industries for beneficial reuse of waste flows or energy cascading that results in a more resource-efficient production system and fewer adverse environmental impacts. Results from the case study presented in this paper, show that the implementation of symbiotic relationships in the industrial area under study, would lead to significant environmental benefits (GHG reduction, reduction on natural sources consumption) and would give a boost to the local economical sector by developing new business opportunities.
