Relevant and appropriate selection of best hybrid material is a challenging task for the recent industries. The mandatory criterion is to deal with the enhanced productivity with minimum cost. Therefore, this paper highlights on the comparative study between the advanced multi-criteria approaches namely ARAS, MABAC, COPRAS and MOOSRA methods for the selection of the best hybrid composite material using aluminum (Al) as base material varying different reinforcement weights and recycling with various industrial wastes by stir casting. Al/WCE gives superior tribomechanical properties at lower cost than any other reinforcements. These advanced MCDM methods are applied, based on the properties and attributes of the hybrid composites, to compare between the computational and experimental results. The results exactly corroborate with the previous research results, which authenticate the expediency of these methods during the solving of complex hybrid material selection problems for sustainable energy recovery. Out of 48 different samples, A30 is obtained to be the best sample by ARAS approach (rank 1) which is Al+Al2O3 at 12.5%wt. addition. A24 is ranked 2 which is heat treated 12.5%wt. WCE. But the same A30 is obtained to be rank 5 and A24 is obtained to be rank 1 by MABAC method, A30 is obtained to be rank 2 and A24 to be rank 1 by COPRAS method, and A30 is calculated to be rank 1 and A24 to be rank 11 by MOOSRA method. A24 is also obtained to be the best hybrid composite as per the experimentation. This paper also aims for proper recovering of environmental friendly renewable energy for the society by fabricating the best hybrid green composite for sustainable development.
