A multi-criteria framework for prioritizing performance indicators for carbon capture technologies: a hybrid Fermatean fuzzy decision support approach

Achieving net-zero emissions demands the strategic deployment of carbon capture technologies (CCTs) supported by transparent and reliable assessment frameworks. This study introduces an integrated multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach that unites the Stepwise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (SWARA) and the Fermatean Fuzzy Full Consistency Method (FF-FUCOM) to prioritize performance indicators of CCTs across technical, economic, environmental, and social dimensions. A systematic literat
