Description
Summary:Biomass has gained global attention as one of the most important renewable energy resources that reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Various research works have been dedicated to biomass supply chain in the past decade as to continuously support the deployment of biomass resources for regional applications. In this work, a novel graphical method based on process integration is proposed for targeting the amount of biomass resources needed for a power generation problem. Apart from having a good visualized interface, the graphical method provides good insights to stakeholders on the macro-level planning of biomass allocation. Two examples are solved to demonstrate the newly proposed methods.
