	abstract = {The aim of the proposed paper consists in defining an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) able to integrate
different classes of indicators (selection criteria) in order to assess the sustainability of five basic energy
systems. The criteria (market, performance, environmental and social indicators) are located at the second
level of hierarchy tree proposed and they are decomposed in specific sub-indicators which represent the
sub-criteria situated at the third level. At the bottom of the tree appear the five alternatives selected and
compared: phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFC), solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), natural gas turbine (GT),
photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy systems (WE). Reference data used to perform the evaluation
procedure have been collected and integrated from current technical and scientific literature. A sensitivity
analysis allows the evaluation of different scenarios by changing, step by step, the relative perceptual
importance of criteria and sub-criteria.},

	abstract = {This paper is focused on defining a sustainability assessment of power plants integrating different classes
of indicators (selection criteria) in an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analyzing ten different basic
power plants considered among the most affordable in the actual technical and social panorama
considering fossil and nuclear fuels as well as renewable sources. The approach is based on different
levels of criteria. Tangibles and intangibles are considered at first. Different depth of classes are
considered in the proposed AHP framework in order to better face the different nature of the managed
indicators. At the bottom of the tree appear the ten considered power plants options. The proposed
approach has to be considered a sort of basic framework, a guidance for future applications requiring
specific definition and management of data available in the explicit field considered where this
methodology can turn into an useful tool for the assessment of energy system in the engineering practice.
In this case, a further sensitivity analysis should be performed in order to best fit the model to the
considered context.},

Approach (MCDM) able to cope with a general set of sustainability indicators. Integrated Pollution and Prevention
Control (IPPC) is the strategy individuated from European Union to reduce pollution of industrial sites which
have high environmental impact. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the sustainability of 6 categories of
IPPC activities, located in Apulia (Italy). As consequence, the authors have developed an Analytic Hierarchy
Process-based approach (AHP) to manage set of indicators of the type lees is better. The AHP hierarchy
framework is based on four levels: the 6 IPPC categories are assessed against non-radioactive emissions and
cost (criteria). The study evaluates the sustainability of categories of IPPC activities considering five different
types of non-radioactive pollutants representing the sub-criteria at the third level of hierarchy. The authors
have developed a sensibility analysis in order to evaluate how changing of incoming data affects final results.
Further improvements can be defined on the proposed approach.},

	abstract = {In 1987, the Brundtland Report (WCED 1987) initiated the concept of sustainability and its
evaluation in engineering field has become a significant issue since it is very difficult to evaluate the
performance of industrial assets due to nature and number of traditional and sustainability indicators. The
paper presents a method to classify sustainability of different industrial plants according to the Integrated
Pollution and Prevention Control (IPPC), the strategy individuated from European Union to reduce pollution of
industrial sites which have high environmental impact. The basic of the proposed approach consists in
defining a Multi Criteria Decision Making Approach (MCDA) able to cope with a general set of sustainability
indicators. The approach integrates a three levels Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model, where different
specific data analysis and management techniques can be integrated in order to properly face different nature
of available data, with a further advanced analysis based on a sustainability Index considered in current
literature by Diaz-Balteiro & Romero (2004). The alternatives, 6 categories of IPPC activities located in
Apulia (ITALY), appear at the lowest level of the hierarchy. At the second level 14 Criteria consisting in
different air pollutants have been considered. The AHP results show the incidence of each IPPC category on
the final sustainability referring to a less is better indicator. The following sensitivity analysis allows decision
makers to evaluate effects due to variation of subjective importance that the different criteria considered
induce on overall systems sustainability. the sensibility analysis performed in this work, playing on relative
comparison of “most balanced performance” versus “most sustainable” solution may allow decision maker
the choice of optimal solution to the sustainability problem faced.},
