Abstract
One of the most important ways to preserve the surrounding environment after an oil leak is to carry out an oil spill response action plan. A quick response and a significant impact should be made in response to any emergency scenario to minimize contamination to the sea and marine life. A number of approaches were developed to deal with oil spills, including utilizing floating barriers, skimmers, storage barges, tanks, and other equipment. These solutions rely on the kind of spill and the tactics used by the emergency response team. To assist respond to oil spills, the project is being undertaken, providing an option for water treatment applications. The proposed design is aimed to address few issues such as the high cost of the current design, staticity, and inefficiency. This research presented the technical requirements of the portable oil skimmer which are obtained from the house of quality and presented four conceptual designs. The conceptual designs have been analyzed in the analytical hierarchy process and the best design has been selected. The first conceptual design had the highest priority among the four conceptual designs proposed which was 31.8%. A detailed design has been generated by using SOLIDWORKS software. Choosing the right concept for a product is a vital step in the development process. Inappropriate selection could lead to a high failure rate in the market for produced goods. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a tool that can be used to tailor the decision-making process. Almost all applications involving decision-making problems use AHP as a tool. The methodology and findings of a study based on the AHP idea are presented in this research. The procedures done can be used as a guideline to help designers or engineers assess numerous design requirements, options at the conceptual design stage, and finally make precise decisions. Part of this project is identifying the technical requirements of portable oil skimmer by utilizing the quality function deployment and selecting the best conceptual design using the analytical hierarchy process. The objectives of this research have been achieved as the user and technical requirements of the portable have been identified and the best conceptual design has been selected via the AHP. The research can be improved further by conducting an experiment on the proposed design to verify its efficiency.
