Abstract
Bioenergy parks are developed due to potential benefits in the environmental, economic, and social dimensions. Separate bioenergy plants or collocated facilities form collaborations and agree to exchange material and energy products to achieve operational sustainability. Such a highly integrated network is vulnerable to cascading failures caused by one or more disrupted component plants. This disruption will result in capacity reductions, supply chain delays, and the inability to meet contractual obligations to customers. During disruptions, a bioenergy park can still operate under abnormal conditions by allocating the product streams within the network and minimizing the impact of the disturbance. In this work, a P-graph model is proposed for the optimal allocation of product streams in the network when disruptions originate from multiple plants. A penalty cost is deducted from the optimal profit of the bioenergy park and is paid to customers as compensation due to losses for not meeting the baseline demand for products. A bioenergy-based eco-industrial park is used to illustrate the proposed framework.
