“…Indeed, the DCA index ranks and determines the escalation scenarios that are likely to happen in both units and tanks. For instance, the DCA values for tank (6) with the stochastic scenario of vapor cloud for each tank is less than 1. Indeed, when this scenario happens, simultaneous escalation 500,000 1,000,000 1,500,000 2,000,000 2,500,000 3,000,000 6) and any other tank is not possible, and this tank is not included in case a crisis happens in this scenario.…”

The accidents caused by the domino effect in industries are highly harmful. This study aims to analyze the occurrence probability of the domino effect with respect to possible explosion and fire scenarios in chemical tanks. Using the results obtained by previous studies, reviewing past accidents, and according to the equipment damage models, threshold values were used for extraction process equipment and inherent safety distances as a criterion to prevent domino accidents. According to primary scenarios and experimental equations, the escalation vector was determined for different tanks. According to the assumption that fire radius is equivalent to inherent safety distance, the fireball radius for tank 1 was calculated 535.7 m. According to the results, the DCP index of tank 3 can be considered the most critical unit. This research studies the probability of the domino effect and means to prevent them according to criteria and hazard index parameters.

“…If an explosion happens, a fire could also harm the surrounding equipment. Besides, accidents around flammable materials could lead to accidents that are more intense than the main accident, called the domino effect [3][4][5][6]. The consequent accidents caused by the domino effect are considered the most catastrophic events in industries.…”

The possibility of substitution of road transport of dangerous goods by rail was investigated through the analysis of transport costs. Transport costs in the transport of dangerous goods in road traffic in the work of computers are based on generally accepted methods and available data. Also, the costs were calculated if the transport would take place by rail on those routes and for one number for which it would be expedient. It was used with appropriate statistical methods to determine some dangerous goods by transport routes.

“…Generations of experts in various fields, primarily chemists and engineers of all necessary profiles, have permanently developed technical-technological systems for the safe transport of dangerous goods, and it is one of the most normatively regulated areas at the international and national level. Hazardous substances are substances or mixtures that with physical and chemical properties or reactions (explosiveness, flammability, toxicity, radiation hazard, corrosivity, and reactivity in general) during production, transport, storage, handling, and use can endanger human health and life, pollute the environment, and cause damage to material goods [1,2]. Also, the term "dangerous substance" refers to the factory declared physical-chemical characteristics of a substance determined based on the recognized and corresponding criteria [3].…”

A Novel Integrated Fuzzy‐Rough MCDM Model for Evaluation of Companies for Transport of Dangerous Goods

The organization and execution of the transport of dangerous goods is conditioned by a series of legal, technical, technological, safety, and engineering requirements, which must be met. In this way, a complex system is created which has a large number of participants and in which optimization should be performed at each stage from all the above aspects. The main goal of this paper is to create a novel Fuzzy-Rough MCDM (Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making) for the evaluation of companies engaged in the transport of dangerous goods. A group decision-making model was created to evaluate 11 transport companies based on nine legal, technical, technological criteria. The improved fuzzy stepwise weight assessment ratio analysis (IMF SWARA) method was used to calculate the criterion weights, while transport companies were ranked based on Rough Measurement Alternatives and Ranking according to the COmpromise Solution (R-MARCOS). The integration of these methods into a single model that combines two theories of uncertainty, fuzzy and rough, was performed for the first time in this study, which represents a significant contribution. The results show that the most significant criteria are as follows: dangerous goods are classified and permitted under ADR (Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road), the prescribed documents are in the transport unit, and the equipment is in the transport unit. When it comes to the evaluation results of companies, it can be noticed that A1 and A4 show the best performance, while A8 and A9 are in the last position. In order to test the stability of the model developed, sensitivity analysis, comparative analysis, and the influence of the dynamic formation of the initial matrix were created.
