Description
Summary:Water quality has a direct impact on human health, hence it is vital to assess it. Water quality assessment is commonly thought of as a multi-criteria decision problem. To evaluate water quality using Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchical Process is presented in this research (Fuzzy-AHP). When using the Fuzzy-AHP process, the relative relevance of these parameters is taken into account, and weights for each parameter are calculated. The fuzzy AHP technique aids decisions with numerous preferences that are fuzzy and ambiguous. The strategies are classified using the following aspects of building a fuzzy AHP model: (i) representation of pairwise comparison, (ii) fuzzy sets and weights/priorities aggregation, (iii) defuzzification and (iv) consistency measurement judgement. The basic ideas, origins, and weaknesses of these strategies are examined.
