Safe handling of hazardous chemicals presents a complex operational challenge across production and logistics systems, requiring integrated decision-making across scheduling, storage, facility location, transport, and recovery processes. Current academic research remains fragmented, addressing single functions in isolation rather than the coordinated system-wide approach needed to meet regulatory requirements and operational realities.

This special issue seeks original research that develops rigorous decision models for hazardous-chemical operations, integrating optimization, simulation, and data-driven methods with practical domain knowledge. The work should bridge operations research, production engineering, logistics management, and safety science to advance both theoretical foundations and practical capabilities for safer, more efficient and sustainable hazardous-chemical operations.
