Abstract The term "sustainability assessment" refers to a set of practices that "guide the planning and decision-making process to realize sustainable development." Sustainability is becoming an increasingly central notion for many businesses. However, the current sustainability assessment techniques are being heavily criticized for a number of reasons, including a lack of interdependence and consistency, the predominance of subjectivity, and financial biases. Therefore, the present study applies the fundamental conceptual framework for sustainability evaluation to enhance the process performance of machining Bohler K490 steel using minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) and hBN-enriched nano-MQL cooling/lubrication. Power consumption and machining parameters such as tool wear, surface roughness, and chip morphology were taken into account while developing the sustainability assessment model. Then, the sustainability performance indicator (SPI) was determined. This global SPI supports the claim that using nano-MQL improves both sustainability and machining performance. The findings of tool wear clearly illustrated that applying hBN-enriched nano fluids from both the rake and flank surface reduced the tool wear values by up to 26.9%.
