چکیده

Electroplating Industries are deploying various waste treatment methods, for reducing the waste discharge to the environment as well as for reuse of waste metals and oxides. Use of different methods of waste treatment and reducing the waste discharge, requires due consideration of various abilities – performance, reliability, environment ability, stability, maintainability, quality, etc. called X-abilities – in varying degree of importance depending on standards/ norms required by an organization/state/country. To facilitate the evaluation (or design evaluation) of an effluent treatment system which simultaneously accounts for all X-abilities, a concurrent design evaluation methodology using graph theoretic and multiple attributes decision making (MADM) approach is proposed. A case study of various chromium plating is presented to illustrate the applicability of proposed methodology.
