The selection of suitable biomass is an important stage in the generation of biofuels, which has a significant impact on the quality of biofuels. The selection of biomass is a strategic decision and, considering with the selection of the raw material for the generation of suitable biomass is influenced by various social, economic and environmental factors, it turns into a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem. By reviewing the literature in this paper, we identify the important criteria of suitable seed oil which includes 16 social, economic and environmental criteria and three options for soybean, rapeseed (colza) and cotton for the generation of biomass. Then we use a hybrid approach to determine the weight of the criteria and ranking the alternatives so we first determine the weight of the criteria using the Best-Worst (BW) method. Then we rank with PROMETHEE GAIA method the alternatives and analyze the model.
