Description: Das Projekt "Wood2Chem: a computer aided platform to support the optimal implementation of wood-based bio refinery concepts" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Institut de Thermique, Laboratoire d'Energetique Industrielle durchgeführt. Wood2CHem: A computer-aided platform for developing bio-refinery concepts The bio-refinery concept offers the timber industry numerous development opportunities by integrating the production of value-added products made from biomass. The computer-aided platform Wood2CHem, developed within the scope of this project, will help to devise innovative means for promoting wood as a resource using a holistic and integrated approach. Background Due to its composition and complex chemical structure, wood can be used to make a large number of value-added products. The bio-refinery concept proposes to widen the range of products derived from wood while adopting a systemic approach aimed at promoting synergies in the production of various products by integrating different processes. It therefore offers an enormous development potential for the wood sector and opens up many new markets. The development of bio-refinery concepts poses a significant challenge. A large number of processes that integrate studies and technologies of innovative transformation need to be evaluated, integrated and optimised using a holistic approach before the most promising concepts can be identified. Aim By applying techniques from process engineering, energy integration and multi-objective optimisation, the consortium of the Wood2CHem project proposes to develop a computer-aided platform for systematically generating the most promising bio-refinery models and evaluating their thermodynamic, economic and environmental performance. This integrated platform will be developed by combining expertise in chemical engineering and process engineering. It is aimed at integrating technological developments of wood transformation and will be validated in industrial case studies. Significance The Wood2CHem project concerns the development of industrial concepts and will therefore primarily interest experts and engineers in the field who wish to develop integrated and innovative concepts for a rational promotion of wood. It will allow them to envisage and compare inegrated process chains. The platform will integrate all the actors wishing to assume the perspective of industrial ecology.
