Industrial Nutrients

A term coined by Michael Braungart and William McDonough to describe the raw materials used in manufacturing, use, and disposal of products. These materials, when treated as valuable resources can be used to make other products instead of being disposed of as waste. Some industrial nutrients are toxic, others are not.
