Adaptability Evaluation of Green Process Schemes for Wood Products via Process Knowledge Graph and Fuzzy Bayesian Network

As cleaner production gains prominence in wooden product manufacturing, green evaluation of process schemes during early design is crucial. However, dust concentration, a key environmental indicator in wood product manufacturing, is often evaluated in a subjective and fragmented manner, which greatly hinders the selection of green process schemes in early design. To address this gap, an adaptability evaluation model for green process schemes was proposed based on process knowledge graphs (PKG) and fuzzy Bayesian network (FBN), with the objective of minimizing dust concentration. First, a PKG for wooden products was constructed based on the requirement-function-structure-characteristic-process-equipment (RFSCPE) ontology using patents and process manuals. Second, candidate process schemes were generated via the PKG, and dust-related causal relationships encoded in the PKG were mapped onto a Bayesian network structure. Third, conditional probabilities were obtained by combining probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets and experimental dust data. The FBN was then updated to perform probabilistic reasoning on dust concentration. Finally, a case study on a wooden toy car validated the proposed approach, and sensitivity analysis identified the key dust-influencing factors, thereby providing quantitative support for greener process decisions.
