The number of hazardous cargo shipments by various modes of transport is increasing each year. However, during the transportation of hazardous materials, emergencies can occur under different circumstances (such as road traffic accidents, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, etc.), which can lead to the breach of containment (tanks, containers, cylinders, etc.), resulting in the release of chemically hazardous substances into the environment and creating significant risks for the population in nearby areas. To reduce the number of such accidents, regulatory measures for the transportation of hazardous substances must be implemented, international cooperation must be ensured, and unified standards and regulations must be developed. Additionally, it is important for approaches to risk assessment for the transportation of chemically hazardous substances to be developed and refined, and for the adverse effects of these substances’ releases on environmental components and public health to be modelled.

摘要

The number of hazardous cargo shipments by various modes of transport is increasing each year. However, during the transportation of hazardous materials, emergencies can occur under different circumstances (such as road traffic accidents, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, etc.), which can lead to the breach of containment (tanks, containers, cylinders, etc.), resulting in the release of chemically hazardous substances into the environment and creating significant risks for the population in nearby areas. To reduce the number of such accidents, regulatory measures for the transportation of hazardous substances must be implemented, international cooperation must be ensured, and unified standards and regulations must be developed. Additionally, it is important for approaches to risk assessment for the transportation of chemically hazardous substances to be developed and refined, and for the adverse effects of these substances’ releases on environmental components and public health to be modelled.
