Abstract
The increasing demand for energy in countries and the use of fossil fuels has increased the global concern for the emission of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. As one of the solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the world, the use of Carbon Capture Technology, especially CCUS, has attracted the attention of experts in various fields. However, the use of CCUS facilities did not go well for several reasons. Multiple technical options, use in diverse industries and complex evaluation systems of CCUS are important reasons. The use of this technology is another point of various concerns of the involved stakeholders, which leads to problems in decision making. Therefore, in this research, using the Analytic Hierarchy Process for Iran, six criteria have been defined, compared and evaluated from the point of view of total price, technological attractiveness, technological capability, cultural, passive and environmental defense. The evaluation results and related interpretations are examined from different perspectives. By adopting this evaluation method and creating a comprehensive model, decision makers can determine their needs and carry out multi-dimensional evaluation and get ideas for judgment or relevant decisions for the implementation of CCUS pilot projects.
