Data Sheet 1_Enhancing environmental sustainability through code-driven process integration in the petrochemical industry.zip

Balancing various objectives and navigating uncertainties, reducing CO2 emissions and enhancing energy efficiency in industry presents a complex challenge. While previous studies primarily focused on conventional optimization methods, this research introduces an innovative approach: a multi-criteria optimization framework tailored to address uncertainties. The primary objective is to optimize energy consumption, minimize emissions, and improve cost efficiency simultaneously within the petrochemical industry. To effectively manage uncertain variables, this study integrates decision-making simulations and expert insights through a hybrid methodology to yield optimal outcomes. Employing three distinct preference categories, the model formulates comprehensive decision-making strategies. Empirical findings underscore the model’s efficacy in reducing CO2 emissions, bridging crucial gaps in existing research, and advocating sustainable practices in the sector. Departing from conventional methodologies, this research leverages advanced decision-making techniques adept at handling uncertainty. The framework identifies pivotal emission sources and advocates economically viable reduction strategies. Its adaptability enriches our comprehension of emission challenges by considering diverse factors and expert perspectives. Professional assessments affirm the model’s success and propose a Coding-Based Prototype as a strategic tool for addressing uncertainties. These results underscore the imperative for policy reforms, such as embracing carbon capture technologies, to bolster global sustainability and foster enduring growth in the industrial domain.
