Intra- and inter-company production networks have gained increased importance in developed and industrialising countries. By reusing waste of industrial sites as a valuable input within the production network, material cycles can be closed and resource efficiency can be improved. In order to improve the performance of a production process, a detailed mapping of the mass and energy flows is the basis to understand which process characteristics are the main drivers for resource efficiency. Therefore, a quantification of effects and a consistent, systematic approach to optimise the overall system's performance are necessary to support the decisions in process design striving for the best utilisation of process streams considering multiple criteria. Thus, the objective of this dissertation is to develop an integrated multi-criteria decision support model for production process design. The developed methodology is applied to a case study of the industrial bicycle coating, which demonstrates the features and the potential of the method. The use of energy, the consumption of water, and the generated solvent emissions are the major relevant mass and energy flows in the coating step of the bicycle production. Therefore, the target values including operating costs and investment are combined to one formalised savings potential using a metric for resource efficiency and are compared using an outranking multi-criteria approach.
