Abstract [en]

This qualitative risk analysis of dangerous goods transports with alternative propellants was ordered by the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB). Scenario combinations consisted of five alternative fuels, six accident scenarios and five types of dangerous goods cargo. The alternative fuels were: methane, hydrogen, ethanol, methanol and dimethyl ether. The accident scenarios consisted of refuelling, fire in tire or engine, tunnel accident, road collision and sabotage of fuel tank. The dangerous goods were limited to: ammonium nitrate, petrol/diesel, methane, ethyl chloride, and EX/II cargo as defined in the ADR regulation. The main identified risks are due to the risk of pressure vessel explosion of gaseous fuels as it: 1) Threatens to detonate explosive load or ammonium nitrate. 2) Cause rescue service to take a defensive approach which will lead to larger consequences. Since there are sustainable liquid fuel alternatives such as bio diesel, this may be a better choice for dangerous goods transportation.
