+== Description & Topics ==
+Logistics are becoming an increasingly important factor for exploiting existing biomass potentials in economically
+viable ways. We need more sustainable concepts for energy provisioning with respect to emission reduction and
+avoidance of fossil fuels. Biomass transport and handling require tailor-made logistics. Biogenic feedstock (e.g.,
+straw, forestry residues or biodegradable waste from households) and derived energy carriers are very diverse
+with respect to their transport and handling requirements. In particular, de-central availability, the low energy
+content, and the ensuing collection and transportation efforts (last-mile problem) need increased attention and
+innovation. Additionally, the storage of biomass poses new challenges compared to classical logistics for example
+to avoid biological degradation of the material. 
+
+Sophisticated and innovative concepts and devices are often
+required to cope with these special needs. In addition to physical means for improved biomass logistics, novel
+and more powerful planning tools, such as computer algorithms for modelling, simulation, and optimization of decentral
+logistics, are also required.
+
+In this poster session we invite you to join the discussion and present innovative ideas, results and prototypes for
+biomass logistics or novel findings it’s planning and optimization.
