Abstract
The paper deals with the problem of performance benchmarking of industrial plants by considering Best Available Techniques (BAT), as determined by the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive. A Fuzzy Logic Model, based on fuzzy set theory, was constructed for this purpose, in order to compare the performance of plants within a sector's best standards, as expressed in the Reference Document on BAT. The effectiveness of the model was tested in the case study, in which three sugar plants were benchmarked against the BAT.
