Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Process safety is an well-known technology and science for preventing accidental chemical releases in chemical process, which may cause fires, explosions, over-pressures, over-temperatures, and corrosion, which can have a serious effect on the plant and environment. It includes many important issues, such as risk identification and management, personal protective equipment, prevention of fire and explosion, management of change, mechanical integrity, process safety technology, emergency management and stakeholder outreach, reactive chemical research, etc. We welcome every topic related to process safety to be submited to this Special Issue.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Safety is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
