The 16 papers in this collection describe multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) methods for sustainability modeling in engineering applications with diverse inputs. The primarily Indian contributors present MCDM frameworks for petroleum refinery projects, logistics center location selection, seaweed supply chain risks, sustainable agricultural practice (SAP), controlling smog formation in Pakistan, and the selection of biodiesel fuel blends. Other topics include electrical discharge micromachining with sustainable dielectrics, regulatory policies for the medical device industry, and an integrated fuzzy model for solid waste management in Libya.

Given the increasing need to optimize resources sustainably, decision-makers face challenges in analyzing and considering the numerous factors involved. This book makes an effort to present and concentrate on the challenges in decision-making processes for green and sustainable engineering. Through a collection of case studies such as evaluation of waste assessment and drainage system, sustainable building assessment, renewable energy selection, materials and manufacturing process optimization, and crop pattern influence in environmental and economic conditions, readers can learn how to apply cutting-edge Multiple-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods in addressing complexities involved in the decision-making process.
