Özet
The industrialization that develops with the increasing population causes an increase in demand for fossil fuels in the world, which affects the supply-demand balance. This imbalance also causes a rise in prices. Therefore, increased oil prices and oil dependency lead the countries to the production and use of new energy resources. At this point, countries are evaluating biomass for biofuel production to generate energy, thus increasing the share of biofuels in total energy consumption. In this study, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to structure the decision problem and to attribute weights to criteria. Among the evaluated physicochemical fuel properties, the most important one is calculated as heating value and also the Cottonseed Fame is determined as the most suitable biodiesel in terms of fuel properties among the evaluated biodiesels.
