Abstract
Pollution of air and water is increasing day by day, as the number of industry is in-creasing and sometimes emission of pollutants in air and water exceeds the norms. So the pollution potential of industries based on the emission of pollutants needs to be assessed. In proposed method, based on the weights and emission of the pollutants, the final score of industries has been calculated which indicates the polluting potential of the industry. In this paper, attempt has been made to evaluate the score and the rank of industries using TODIM decision making process, in which higher score of particular industry is an indicator of higher pollution load imparted by particular industry and vice versa.
