The problem of lot sizing and vehicle routing are combined to form the production routing problem. The efficiency of this combination in cutting expenses has been studied in the past. To reduce the risk associated with the manufacturing and distribution of hazardous products, the production routing problem is examined in this study. Researchers are paying more attention to sustainability’s social and environmental aspects. Hazardous materials are bad for the environment and human health. Mishaps using these substances frequently have unfavorable long-term effects. Risk is a criterion for measuring hazards in activities involving these materials. A mixed integer program is used to simulate the problem. The suggested model’s nonlinear risk function is dependent on the machine’s load, population risk, and hazardous substance. A piecewise linear function approximates this function since solving the mathematical model with the nonlinear objective function is more difficult. Several cases were utilized in this study to assess the model, solve it, and contrast the two linear and nonlinear models. The outcomes demonstrate that the approximation model may obtain a more accurate result simultaneously. The impact of alterations to warehousing and production capacity on risk has also been examined through sensitivity analysis. Using a nonlinear mathematical model, this study suggested a production routing problem for hazardous materials based on sustainability requirements and solved the model using a piecewise linear approximation.

In the last several decades, Iran’s ecosystem has suffered due to the careless usage of natural resources. Cities have grown in an uneven and non-normative way, and poor project management has been a major issue, particularly in large cities. An even greater number of environmental factors and engineering regulations are not relevant to projects. Because of this, in order to ascertain a project’s environmental impact, an environmental impact assessment (EIA), is required. Using the rapid impact assessment matrix (RIAM) is one method of applying it to EIA. Reducing subjectivity brings objectivity and transparency. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a thorough EIA was carried out for the Tehran project utilizing the RIAM and other possibilities. This research is the first to combine the methodology that was discussed during the incident. Through the use of the RIAM technique, the environmental impact of COVID-19 was to be quantified in this inquiry. The research examined lockdown procedures and the COVID-19 pandemic to create an EIA indicator. In a real-world case study conducted in Tehran, Iran, the impact of the initiative was evaluated using the RIAM methodology during the COVID-19 epidemic. The results demonstrated that COVID-19 had both beneficial and harmful effects. Decision-makers were effectively informed about the COVID-19 pandemic’s environmental consequences on people and the environment, as well as how to minimize negative effects, according to the EIA technique that used RIAM. This is the first research to integrate the EIA during a crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, with the RIAM approach.
