Optimization of Transport Logistics for Forest Biomass

Sa？etak The Use of renewable resources on the basis of forest biomass is gradually becoming an international issue. The conditions for the optimal use include solving several technical, technological, economic and environmental problems. The contribution is aimed at solving a role model of optimization of forest biomass transport in the conditions of the School forestry enterprise of the Technical University in Zvolen. The solution is based on the algorithm-based working software the MODI mathematical methods. For the purposes of optimization, the following criteria have been selected: time consumption per 1 m3, cost per 1 m3 and fuel consumption per 1 m3. In total, 5995 m3 of forest biomass is to be transported. Regarding the first criterion, the total optimal solution is 809.62 h, for the second criterion, the optimal value is 8871.15 € and for the third one it is 1.43 l.m-3. The evaluated criteria are a partial solution of the transport problem optimization. What is important are also the links to technological background, anthropometric parameters of service and international trade, and connection to water transport in the case of REALIZACE OBCHODU with intercontinental trade partners
