Abstract：The development and utilization of biomass energy can ease the tension of energy .For the lean development of bioenergy , it is necessary to study the optimal design of bioenergy supply chain .In consid-ering the raw material production constraints , refinery capacity constraints , and demand satisfaction con-straints , a mixed integer programming model is established to minimize the total cost of the bioenergy sup-ply chain .It is solved by CPLEX and the refinery location , the scale of refinery , and annual production of refinery are obtained .In addition, supply relationship and distribution quality among raw material suppler , refinery and demand are determined .The effectiveness of the model is demonstrated through a numerical case study based on data of Liaoning Province .The production cost of refineries accounts for the largest proportion , about 59%of the total cost , and the transportation cost for the smallest , about 8%.The per-formance of the model with various prices and demands is discussed .
