Abstract:
Decision facilitation tools provide computational support for implementing multi-criteria decision analysis displaying the results through numerical and/ or visual graphical aids. The process of decision-making is not straightforward since complex problems could have various alternative solutions that include different criteria. In this paper, a conceptual framework for a decision facilitation tool supporting decision-making processes related to biomass valorization, has been developed. This tool is aimed to consider a comprehensive knowledge of interdisciplinary studies that advises users to select the most beneficial scenarios for biomass valorization. The output of the decision facilitation tool is to provide a ranking inventory with different biomass valorization pathways based on the qualitative characteristics of the biomass feedstock, waste hierarchy and biomass pyramid, as well as, environmental indicators. This tool will be a web-based application providing solutions to the user on the ways of valorization of the biomass, that the user is in possession.
