Within the BioBoost project we developed a simulation model for the evaluation of processes for 2nd generation bio-fuels. A customized algorithm optimizes locations and capacities of plants as well as biomass and energy carrier logistics. On this page you can download the software as an add-on for HeuristicLab. Using this add-on helps to analyse which regions in Europe would be ideal for first implementation of industrial-scale plants for 2nd generation bio fuels. You can also easily analysis the profitability of such plants.

Of course the simulation model can be easily adapted to other bio-fuel production processes and technologies, other regions and more fine grained regional analysis. It is only necessary to provide the necessary data. We are happy to help you when adapting the simulator to your needs!
