Abstract

Economic as well as technological considerations have dominated the evolution of industrial structures. These factors have been treated mostly separately by engineers and economists in the past. However, another major factor which has begun to have a decisive influence on the performance of industrial processes is technological risk as well as public and environmental health considerations, in particular those related to toxic and hazardous substances used in industrial production processes.
