How sustainability factors influence maintenance of water distribution systems feeding manufacturing industries

2022

This work aims to analyse the role played by relevant sustainability factors towards the implementation of maintenance interventions in the manufacturing industrial sector. In this context, we focus on industrial water distribution systems, on whose effective work depends the functioning of core plants as well as general industrial facilities. In detail, we propose aMulti-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) application based on the use of the Analytic Network Process (ANP) as amethodological way to prioritise maintenance interventions while considering the influence of some of themost relevant sustainability factors identified in literature.
