Symbiotic supply chains offer companies a valuable opportunity to embrace the Circular Economy model, which aims to effectively utilize waste. Despite growing interest in this area, there exists research lacks on the dynamic behavior of symbiotic supply chains, a crucial aspect in traditional supply chains. This study seeks to fill this gap by analyzing the dynamics of two supply chains that implement a symbiotic exchange of waste at the manufacturer level. We focus on evaluating their performance based on two key factors: (1) information sharing between the supply chains and the (2) waste treatment lead time. Using agent-based modeling simulation, through a full-factorial design of experiments, we assess performance in various scenarios. The results highlight the significant impact of symbiotic flows on the dynamics of the participating supply chain member.

Abstract
Symbiotic supply chains offer companies a valuable opportunity to embrace the Circular Economy model, which aims to effectively utilize waste. Despite growing interest in this area, there exists research lacks on the dynamic behavior of symbiotic supply chains, a crucial aspect in traditional supply chains. This study seeks to fill this gap by analyzing the dynamics of two supply chains that implement a symbiotic exchange of waste at the manufacturer level. We focus on evaluating their performance based on two key factors: (1) information sharing between the supply chains and the (2) waste treatment lead time. Using agent-based modeling simulation, through a full-factorial design of experiments, we assess performance in various scenarios. The results highlight the significant impact of symbiotic flows on the dynamics of the participating supply chain member.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
