Industrial Ecology is een opkomende wetenschappelijke discipline die een systematische aanpak naar menselijke problemen voorstaat, waarbij technische, milieu- en sociale aspecten worden geïntegreerd. Gesteld kan worden dat deze aanpak de manier is om tot duurzame ontwikkeling te komen. Daarom wordt industriële ecologie ook wel gezien als de ‘gereedschapskist voor duurzame ontwikkeling’of de ‘wetenschap der duurzaamheid’.
