Abstract

The hazardous chemical is prone to the accidents during the transportation and the storage. At the same time, the characteristics of the hazardous chemical make the hazardous chemical accidents have the very abominable impact on the life, the property and the environment. The reasonable distribution center location for the hazardous chemical can avoid many safety problems fundamentally. Under the modern management idea, the storage and the transportation of the hazardous chemical are all in the supply chain. Therefore, we should consider the selection of the hazardous chemical distribution center under the supply chain environment. The reasonable site selection will have a positive impact on the accident probability, delivery speed and cost etc. In order to make the location problem of the hazardous chemical distribution center fits the trend of the times and the idea of the supply chain management, we propose the location evaluation model of the hazardous chemical distribution center. At the same time, we will use the improved AHP method to evaluate the location problem in order to make the evaluation result more accurate. The experimental results show that the evaluation system of this paper has a good effect on the distribution center location of hazardous chemical under the supply chain environment.
