| Abstract | The purpose of this study is to evaluate and prioritize iron making technology in Thailand by using Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA). The scope of assessment was focused on three iron making technologies are blast furnace (BF), corex and midrex. Three iron making technologies were evaluated by using bipolar analytical hierarchy process (BAHP) based on three main criteria and nine sub-criteria. The qualitative data and quantitative data were collected from government sector, private sector, education sector and institute sector. The qualitative data of relative preferences were changed to quantitative data by expert judgment following classical AHP method. The results showed that in economic criteria BF technology had the positive preference due to high net profit. The most preferences of iron making technology in terms of environmental concerns and technology criteria belonged to midrex technology due to use natural gas as fuel as well as lower environmental impact. The results from final evaluations based on technology, economic and environment aspects using the bipolar analytical hierarchy process (BAHP) exhibited that BF technology was the most preference of iron making technology in Thailand (48%), followed by midrex (28%) and corex (24%) respectively. |
