Ports and maritime transportation also play a noteworthy role in sustainability owing to the fact they are known as crucial and significant economic hubs all around the world. Hence, here environmental factors associated with the ports have been illustrated and according to the experts 鈥榓ttitudes by using the Best-Worst method (BWM) to find less incompatibility, the criteria鈥檚 weight would have been calculated. Emissions of pollutants into the waters, environmental pollution, and General waste handling are the best, and Technology and Education, Hazardous waste handling, and Port staff training are the worst criteria respectively. Afterward, owing to the ambiguity in experts 鈥榓ttitudes, the combination of the VIKOR decision-making method and the hesitant fuzzy has been utilized in order to compare alternatives through uncertainty in data and to decrease related errors. Finally, the proposed assessment model has been examined with sensitivity analysis in a real case of Iranian Ports.
