Résumé 0

This paper investigates a multi-market Cournot model where a particular firm may be present in a secondary market by recycling its waste as coproducts. We show the conditions under which the recycling strategy is optimal for the firm, thus creating coproduction and co-value. Unlike the usual models found in the literature based on costs and potential economies of scope, our model associates the relationship between the two goods as a new technological constraint for production. We show that an optimal percentage of recycling the waste as a new coproduct exists and depends on the structural conditions of the two markets.
