AB - The expanding population and rapid urbanisation, in particular in the Global South, areleading to global challenges on resource supply stress and rising waste generation. A transformation to resource-circular systems and sustainable recovery of carbon-containing andnutrient-rich waste offers a way to tackle such challenges. Eco-industrial parks have thepotential to capture symbioses across individual waste producers, leading to more effectivewaste-recovery schemes. With whole-system design, economically attractive approaches canbe achieved, reducing the environmental impacts while increasing the recovery of high-valueresources. In this paper, an optimisation framework is developed to enable such design,allowing for wide ranging treatment options to be considered capturing both technologicaland financial detail. As well as technology selection, the framework also accounts for spatial aspects, with the design of suitable transport networks playing a key role. A range ofscenarios are investigated using the network, highlighting the multi-faceted nature of theproblem. The need to incorporate the impact of resource recovery at the design stage isshown to be of particular importance.
