Transportation of Hazardous Materials

Abstract

The transportation of hazardous materials by pipeline, road, and rail is presented. The main accident scenarios that can occur in pipelines are commented. A methodology for the assessment of the risk associated with a pipeline is developed through an illustrative case. The associated frequencies and probabilities are given. A risk analysis procedure for road and rail transportation is presented. The main safety and emergency measures are commented. Finally, three real cases are analyzed.
