Sustainable biofuel operating space: multi-criteria assessment and multi-objective optimization Roberto C. Izaurralde, Xuesong Zhang 4.6-Modeling Joint Global Change Research Institute Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and University of Maryland

Bioenergy Life-Cycle Analysis (4.6.2) Primary drivers for bioenergy include reducing demand for petroleum and emissions of greenhouse gases. Life-cycle analysis (LCA) estimates the overall contribution of bioenergy system towards meeting these objectives. LCA evaluates the entire process (i.e., field to wheels) including all upstream and downstream energy and material inputs and associated greenhouse gas emissions Evaluate bioenergy pathways that are cost-effective and sustainable relative to net greenhouse gas impact, long-term soil quality, and ecosystem impacts.

15 Conclusions Multi-objective optimization can provide promising candidate biofuel crop landscape configurations for multi-criteria assessment of sustainability. Spatially-explicit variables (e.g. carbon and yield) related to LCA assessment Spatially-explicit modeling map can be used to calculate the distance from crop fields to biorefinery and transportation cost for LCA.
