A stochastic multi-criteria decision analysis for sustainable biomass crop selection
作者:
Highlights:
• We propose a stochastic analytical hierarchy process (SAHP) method.
• Sustainable biomass crop selection has economic, environmental, and social dimensions.
• Switchgrass is found to be the most sustainable crop type for biofuel production.
• Wheat and corn get high scores if economic factor is emphasized in decision making.
• The proposed SAHP model can utilize imprecise expert opinions in decision making.
