T
he aim of this paper is to determine the solutions
affecting water and energy consumption as well as
environmental impact in a recycled paper manufacturing
by using Analytic Hierarchy Process. The AHP enables one
to consider all the elements of decision process in a model,
and to compare criteria and sub criteria of the model to
find the best alternative. Using a literature review and field
study, the proposed model can provide a framework for
cleaner production implementation in the industry. The
results show that process change gives the highest priority
between five main criteria and that industrial automation
and its technology level gives the highest priority among
sub-criteria. Regarding the alternatives, reduction of
environmental pollutions is the most important solution for
cleaner production in the industry . Also, product correction
is the most sensitive criterion affecting the alternatives.
The paper illustrates how the AHP method can help
industrial management to overcome the energy usage and
environmental impact in the manufacture.
