2-Tuple Linguistic q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Power MSM Approach for Choosing Sustainable Waste Disposal Technology

Abstract

The municipal solid waste (MSW) generation rate in Asian cities is dramatically increasing with rising urbanization and conventional interaction. In many urban areas, the strategy for MSW disposal is neither environmentally sustainable nor appropriate for human health. Based on the awareness and the implementation of appropriate technology, the selection of waste disposal technology is a sensitive issue. This ultimate decision could have a deep-rooted effect on the environment and commercial development. This study considers the multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) process that also handles uncertainty to select a sustainable waste disposal technology. For this purpose, 2-tuple linguistic q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (2TLq-ROFSs) are used to permit decision-makers to make assessments in a broader space and to depict the unreliability and vagueness in making real decisions. Firstly, we introduce novel aggregation operators, such as 2TLq-ROF power Maclaurin symmetric mean (2TLq-ROFPMSM) and 2TLq-ROF power weighted Maclaurin symmetric mean (2TLq-ROFPWMSM) operators. We develop an elegant MAGDM approach using the 2TLq-ROFPWMSM operator. Finally, to demonstrate the practicability and efficacy of the proposed method, we consider an MAGDM problem for selecting a sustainable waste disposal technology. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is evaluated further through comparison with different approaches and sensitivity analysis.

“…We make a comparison of our proposed approach with existing approaches such as the 2TL q -ROF-DEMATEL-TOPSIS method proposed by Naz et al [60] and the 2TL q -ROF power Maclaurin symmetric mean (2TL q -ROF-PMSM) operator established by Naz et al [61] in order to assess its practicality and efficacy. When we compare the proposed approach with 2TL q -ROF-DEMATEL-TOPSIS method then the ranking is , and the best alternative according to the 2TL q -ROF-DEMATEL-TOPSIS method is .…”
