A material flow network approach was used to enable the calculation of economical and ecological performance indicators. The concept of the WBCSD was utilised to specify appropriate ecological performance indicators. The economical indicators were focussed on the method of flow cost accounting. The modelling of the material flows was supported by the Environmental Management Information System (EMIS) Umberto 4.0. After the description of the developed approach the paper describes experiences derived from a practical example within the pharmaceutical industry.Text/Conference Paper
