“…The fourth level is evaluation subjects, which are the different tailings disposals including deep sea submarine tailings disposal (DSTD), tailings dam disposal (TDD), backfill disposal (BD), tailings reuse disposal (TRD), and the SBDR tailings disposal procedure. A priority sequence can be determined by the ANP method, and the tailings disposal method with the largest weight is the most suitable method for the DSM industry [46]. There are two hypothesizes for the ANP utilization: (a) the major criteria are assumed to be interdependent; (b).…”

Abstract:Deep sea mining tailings disposal is a new environmental challenge related to water pollution, mineral crust waste handling, and ocean biology. The objective of this paper is to propose a new tailings disposal procedure for the deep sea mining industry. Through comparisons of the tailings disposal methods which exist in on-land mining and the coastal mining fields, a new tailings disposal procedure, i.e., the submarine-backfill-dam-reuse (SBDR) tailings disposal procedure, is proposed. It combines deep sea submarine tailings disposal, backfill disposal, tailings dam disposal, and tailings reuse disposal for the deep sea mining industry. Then, the analytic network process (ANP) method is utilized to evaluate the performances of different tailings disposal methods. The evaluation results of the ANP show that the new proposed tailings disposal procedure is the most suitable for the deep sea mining industry.

“…There was also research on territorial and environmental assessment (Promentilla, et al, 2006;Bottero, et al, 2008;Wolfslehner, and Vacik, 2008). In waste management, ANP was used to prioritize and select the suitable municipal solid waste disposal method (Khan and faisal, 2008). Banar et al, (2007), used ANP to choose one out of four alternatives regarding landfill sites in Turkey, while Tuzkaya et al, (2008) used ANP to locate the undesirable facilities.…”

Selecting the best wastewater treatment (WWT) technology requires a thorough qualitative and quantitative evaluation of multi-dependence criteria. A network based method is one of the many possible techniques that able to handle multi-dependence criteria in the selection. This paper proposes relative importance weights of alternatives in selecting the WWT technology using the analytic network process (ANP) in Terengganu Malaysia. The ANP is applied to establish the relative weights of alternatives based on criteria and sub-criteria that available in the WWT technology selection. Two faculty members attached to a public university and an engineer in Malaysian government agency were interviewed to provide evaluation within the framework of ANP. Inner dependence and outer dependence analysis of ANP are fully utilised to establish relative importance weights of alternatives. The experiment result reveals that the relative importance weights of the three alternatives are 0.3074, 0.2795 and 0.2447. The alternative 'Composting' has decided as the most suitable technology in WWT which provides the highest relative importance weight among all the three alternatives. The results would be a great significance for the practical implementation of the WWT technology selection.
