Optimizing bioremediation techniques for soil decontamination in a linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy framework.

Bioremediation techniques, which harness the metabolic activities of microorganisms, offer sustainable and environmentally friendly approaches to contaminated soil remediation. These methods involve the introduction of specialized microbial consortiums to facilitate the degradation of pollutants, contribute to soil restoration, and mitigate environmental hazards. When selecting the most effective bioremediation technique for soil decontamination, precise and dependable decision-making methods are critical. This research endeavors to tackle the aforementioned concern by utilizing the tool of aggregation operators in the framework of the Linguistic Intuitionistic Fuzzy (LIF) environment. Linguistic Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (LIFSs) provide a robust framework for representing and managing uncertainties associated with linguistic expressions and intuitionistic assessments. Aggregation operators enrich the decision-making process by efficiently handling the intrinsic uncertainties, preferences, and priorities of MADM problems; as a consequence, the decisions produced are more reliable and precise. In this research, we utilize this concept to devise innovative aggregation operators, namely the linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy Dombi weighted averaging operator (LIFDWA) and the linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy Dombi weighted geometric operator (LIFDWG). We also demonstrate the critical structural properties of these operators. Additionally, we formulate novel score and accuracy functions for multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) problems within LIF knowledge. Furthermore, we develop an algorithm to confront the complexities associated with ambiguous data in solving decision-making problems in the LIF Dombi aggregation environment. To underscore the efficacy and superiority of our proposed methodologies, we adeptly apply these techniques to address the MADM problem concerning the optimal selection of a bioremediation technique for soil decontamination. Moreover, we present a comparative evaluation to delineate the authenticity and practical applicability of the recently introduced approaches relative to previously formulated techniques.
