Persistent organic pollutants (POPs)are a group of hazardous chemicals that have persistent, bio accumulative andtoxic properties regulated under Stockholm Convention (SC). This study was to alarge extent focusing on selecting the appropriate treatment/disposaltechnologies for environmentally sound disposal of POPs in compliant with SCobligations. For this purpose, five different technologies were evaluated byAnalytic Network Process (ANP) and PROMETHEE methods which are the mostwell-known Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods. These technologiesare incineration, base-catalyzed decomposition (BCD), gas phase chemicalreduction (GPCR), pyrolysis/gasification and plasma arc. Eleven criteria bymeans of benefit, cost and risk were used for evaluation. Incineration wasfound as the preferred alternative for both methods (34 % for ANP and +0.41 forPROMETHEE). The second option for ANP and PROMETHEE was plasma arc (24%) andpyrolysis/gasification/ (+0.23), respectively. Although the results were slightlydifferent for two options, this difference is due to the mathematicaldifferences between the methods.
