2 Topics Project Background Biomass Procurement Systems The MIRO Model Functions and Planning Options Conclusion and Outlook 15th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition 11/05/07 MIRO TFH Wildau page 2

3 University of Applied Sciences - The Research Group Transport Logistics Fields of Activities Intermodal Goods Transport Urban goods movement Transport telematics Logistics for Wood and Biomass Recent Projects ECO4LOG Intermodal Goods Transport in Central Europe INTERIM Harbour-hinterland connectivity in CADSES area, OPERA Forest Logistics and RFID Technology DENDROM Supply Chains for Energy Wood MIRO Integrated Biomass Procurement RÜFILOG Traceability of Food with RFID MINERVA Optimised Guidance of Trucks in Urban Areas 15th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition 11/05/07 MIRO TFH Wildau page 3

4 Project Background European Biomass Action Plan and Biofuel Strategy Second-generation biofuels Fischer-Tropsch-biodiesel (BtL) Large scale production of BtL: Importance of sustainable and cost-efficient feedstock supply (biomass + logistics) BtL as a new player in the market Competition for production areas and feedstock Development of new biomass sources Design of supply systems 15th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition 11/05/07 MIRO TFH Wildau page 4

5 Requirement with respect to Biomass Supply Requirements of future BtL-producers: reliable supply (high process times) continuous material flows (low storage costs) biomass products production technology process (particle dimension, water content and chemical composition) flexibility and reliability of logistics Requirements of Society: sustainability of biomass production and supply processes moderate traffic loads around the production location purchasing guarantees, fair prices 15th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition 11/05/07 MIRO TFH Wildau page 5

6 Set-Up of Supply Systems analysis of framework conditions conceptual planning of the supply system calculation of needed capacities make-or-buy-decisions preselection of suppliers and service providers choice of suppliers choice of service providers (logistics, processing) contract conclusions Phase1: Strategic Planning Phase 2: Detailed Planning Phase 3: System Set-Up 15th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition 11/05/07 MIRO TFH Wildau page 6

7 Characteristics of Planning Biomass Supply Systems Exchangeability of different biomass raw materials Various sources (geographical origin and suppliers) Seasonal availability of biomass raw and market development Current market prices and cost functions Options for designing supply chains (biomass treatment, intermediate products, container technology, vehicles and transport systems) Industrial workflow of BtL-production 15th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition 11/05/07 MIRO TFH Wildau page 7

8 Data Flow within the MIRO - Model Input plant location Data Basis BIOMASS REQUIREMENTS quantity biomass assortments CALCULATION PARAMETERS GEOGRAPHICAL DATA cost functions - biomass production - processing - conditioning - biomass upgrading -logistics availability of biomass - seasonal biomass production - mobilisation of farmers and forest owners - alternative land use and biomass conversion routes arable land and forests biomass potentials regional allocation of available biomass infrastructure Planning DESIGN OF THE SUPPLY SYSTEM logistics chains - processing, conditioning, upgrading - transported goods - storage - transhipment - means of transportation transportation network - network structure - locations for biomass processing, storage and transhipment Result overall costs of biomass supply 15th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition 11/05/07 MIRO TFH Wildau page 8
