Research Methodology

Research Methodology

 

The central philosophy of the project follows the systems hierarchy in reviewing carbon-based industrial systems, offering different levels for modelling and decision making. More specifically: At the fundamental level (Level 1), mathematical modelling of equipment and equipment compartments offer building blocks customizable into different model granularities supporting model-based optimal designs of individual biorenewable systems at scales appropriate to the application; 

At Level 2, based on the physical-chemical-biological characterization of (bio)chemical conversions and transport phenomena in individual units, process intensification (Level 2a) and process integration (Level 2b) build efficiencies; At level 3, the scope of research is extended to value chain networks, which should be designed taking into account both processing and logistic subsystems as well as biomass supply/ products scenarios. A holistic approach embraces all of the above layers alongside LCA methods and analysis for sustainable development.

The following tasks and works will be executed within the project:

  1. Mathematical modelling and multi-scale application
  2. Equipment and process integration of biorefinery concepts
  3. Bio renewables value chain network modelling and optimization
  4. Life cycle assessment, sustainability and economics feasibility
  5. Validation, Evaluation and on-site training
  6. Systems tools and software
