Abstract
The transition towards a sustainable land management (SLM) needs for utilizing appropriate technologies for controlling soil pollution, and ensures the development of environmental, economic, technical, and social dimensions in region. Using these technologies for cleaning up soils polluted with oil and petroleum products in Behbahan city (in the southwest of Iran) is considered. The soil pollution control technologies (SPCTs) can assist local authorities, governments, investors, and developers to reduce climate change, mitigate soil, water, and air pollution and construct the sustainable communities. With the aim of balance between the issues in the context of sustainability policy, criteria (principles) including environmental, economic, technical, and social aspects are considered. The research takes into consideration the applicability of a novel multi-criteria decision-making approach namely complex spherical fuzzy set-based CODAS (Combinative distance-based assessment). The approach can be used to choose the suitable technology in a sustainable mode, considering the principles related to sustainability pillars. It comprises various technologies for soil pollution control and prioritizes technologies from the most to least as: Biorestoration technology, Excavation technology, Soil venting technology, Soil flushing, and Hydraulic barriers technology.
