'''Industrial Ecology''' is the core philosophical and engineering principle behind [[Project: Flamenco]].

In the context of this project, it is the study of the facility as a "man-made ecosystem." The central tenet is that there is no such thing as "waste," only "misplaced resources."

The entire design of Project: Flamenco is an exercise in industrial ecology, where the "waste" output of one system becomes the "food" input for another.

=== Key Loops ===

* '''Heat Waste:''' Server room heat $\rightarrow$ powers [[Stirling Engine Array (Isidore)|Stirling engines]] and [[Waste Heat Food Dehydrator (Isidore)|food dehydrator]].
* '''Water Waste:''' Fish waste (ammonia) $\rightarrow$ feeds [[Biowall Filtration System (Maria)|biowall]] and aquaponic plants.
* '''Air Waste:''' Dusty warehouse air $\rightarrow$ is "food" for the [[Biowall Filtration System (Maria)|biowall]], which strips it of particulates.
* '''Material Waste:''' A clogged [[Loofah Filter Cultivation (Maria)|Loofah filter]] $\rightarrow$ is composted to create fertilizer to grow more loofahs.
