Factors affecting the logistics and transportation of hazardous chemicals in China
2017-3-29
The explosion of hazardous chemical logistics transportation has led to tragedy. Through tragedy, we also see the safety issues of hazardous chemical logistics transportation. Currently, the current situation of China's hazardous chemical logistics industry is small, scattered, chaotic, and poor. There are many factors that contribute to these phenomena. The following reasons lead to the current situation of hazardous chemical logistics transportation in China.
Firstly, there are many illegal operations in the transportation of hazardous chemicals, which waste transportation capacity and pose significant hidden dangers
There are many non-standard phenomena in the logistics and transportation of hazardous chemicals in China, which pose significant safety hazards. It is also common to see unlicensed operations or unlicensed employment in hazardous chemical logistics in China. The relevant professional knowledge and skills of drivers and escorts have not met the requirements, and they cannot handle accidents in a timely and proper manner. In addition, a considerable proportion of vehicles do not meet the technical requirements of hazardous chemical logistics, and some even use ordinary vehicles to transport hazardous chemicals.
Secondly, the vicious competition in freight rates in the hazardous chemical logistics market
The logistics space for hazardous chemicals is relatively high compared to ordinary goods. After the opening of the transportation market, some low-cost and high profit enterprises have occupied the market. These enterprises intentionally lower freight rates, forming vicious competition and causing chaos in the hazardous chemical logistics transportation market. Some enterprises even pursue profit maximization by running fast and taking risks, leading to phenomena such as speeding, overloading, exceeding limits, or fatigue driving.
These are the main factors that exist in hazardous chemical logistics. Although the Tianjin hazardous chemical logistics explosion was not caused by these factors before, they are also obstacles to the transportation of hazardous chemicals in China, posing significant safety hazards.
