Summary:
This paper shows the mathematical formulation of an inventory facility location decision problem. These facilities provide storage for agricultural biomass to be used as fuel at industrial plants. The decision problem bears in mind logistics cost (inventory and transportation), unsupplied penalties and delayed collection costs. Logical constraints, such as maximum storage capacity or maximum monthly available lorries, are taken into account. A real case study has been described in a high biomass collection and demand scenarios analyzing results for different number of inventory facilities.
