Biomass Research Centre developed a methodology establishing criteria for planning and management of traceability of biomass supply chain for power plants. Traceability system regards all phases of energy chain from biomass production, meant as recovery of residual wood from industries, maintenance of forests and cultivation of energy crops, to fuel distribution and biomass storage at power plant. In the elaborated scheme, the entire documental system necessary to its application was defined through the predisposition of Supply Chain Management Handbook, suitable to describe the responsibilities and the management and to verify forms. Proceedings to comply with chain were defined for each kind of stakeholder. In order to make effective the traceability system, a control plan was prepared in which involved subjects, traceability components for each critical step of chain and document conservation managers were defined. Proceedings defined also the rules to make the biomass sampling both arriving at the power plant site and along the conveyor belt that feeds the boiler and the assessment operations of biomass quality, based on the most important physical-chemical parameters of fuel.

Abstract
Biomass Research Centre developed a methodology establishing criteria for planning and management of traceability of biomass supply chain for power plants. Traceability system regards all phases of energy chain from biomass production, meant as recovery of residual wood from industries, maintenance of forests and cultivation of energy crops, to fuel distribution and biomass storage at power plant. In the elaborated scheme, the entire documental system necessary to its application was defined through the predisposition of Supply Chain Management Handbook, suitable to describe the responsibilities and the management and to verify forms. Proceedings to comply with chain were defined for each kind of stakeholder. In order to make effective the traceability system, a control plan was prepared in which involved subjects, traceability components for each critical step of chain and document conservation managers were defined. Proceedings defined also the rules to make the biomass sampling both arriving at the power plant site and along the conveyor belt that feeds the boiler and the assessment operations of biomass quality, based on the most important physical-chemical parameters of fuel.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
