An enhanced fuzzy IDOCRIW-COCOSO multi-attribute decision making algorithm for decisive electric vehicle battery recycling method

Abstract

An adaptation to electric mobility quickens waste management tasks for recyclers to end-to-end processing of marketed electric vehicle batteries. Especially lithium-ion batteries play a prominent role in electrifying the world for e-transport technology innovation. This research offers a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) structure for finding the best performance e-vehicle recycling techniques. The structured algorithm combines an advanced stratified MADM strategy with e-transportation recycling techniques. The optimal algorithm evaluates the results of qualitative attributes and alternatives using a weighted-ranking MADM approach. The importance of attributes is calculated using a blending of dual objective-weighted approaches: entropy and CILOS methods, viz., the aggregated IDOCRIW approach. The ranking of alternatives is determined through the COCOSO method in a hesitation environment. The q-rung orthopair picture fuzzy set (q-ROPFS) is used to cope with uncertainty and vagueness in decision analysis. The feasibility and robustness of the suggested algorithm were validated through different MADM methods and by altering crucial ranking-dependent parameters in the problem.
