Debottlenecking of sustainability performance for integrated biomass supply chain: P-graph approach
TLDR
In this article, a debottlenecking approach that incorporates P-graph framework and sustainability index (SI) to address the aforementioned issue is introduced, where analytical hierarchy process (AHP) is applied to determine the appropriate priority scale for each sustainability dimension, including economic sustainability (annual revenue), environmental sustainability (pollutants emission) and social sustainability (safety aspect).About:

Decision making with the analytic hierarchy process
TL;DR: The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a theory of measurement through pairwise comparisons and relies on the judgements of experts to derive priority scales that measure intangibles in relative terms.
