| Popis: |
The scarcity of fossil fuels and the environmental implications of their use has drawn increasing attention to the production of bioenergy from nonfood sources. To validate the progressive experimental research in this field, we require a credible tool that can quantify various impacts of potential biorefining processes. This chapter will demonstrate a novel decision support model that can provide comprehensive techno-economic results to various stakeholders. The framework integrates process optimization , supply chain optimization and discrete event simulation (DES) capabilities to provide a comprehensive and multi-disciplinary tool for bioenergy supply chain design following an iterative process. The tool is further enhanced by the incorporation of supply chain risk modeling to capture various uncertainties. A proof of concept case study is presented to illustrate the applicability of this framework to any given geographic region. |
