6. 24. Forest based biorefinery supply chains - Identification and evaluation of economic, CO2, and resource efficiency

   Author : Jonas Zetterholm; Elisabeth Wetterlund; Joakim Lundgren; Karin Pettersson; Johanna Mossberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

   Abstract : Biorefineries for production of fuels, chemicals, or materials, can bean important contribution to reach a fossil-free economy. Large-scaleforest-based biorefineries are not yet cost competitive with their fossil counterparts and it is important to identify biorefinery supply chain configurations with good economic, CO2, and biomass performance if biorefineries are to be a viable alternative to the fossil refineries.
