Abstract
This article proposes a model to evaluate hazardous material fallout. The problem is particularly pertinent since the transport, storage and production of this type of product often occur close to inhabited are as and, in case of accidents, it is important to correctly estimate th e lines of action and risk areas. This model can also be used to evalu ate the environmental risk related to specific hazardous installations and therefore can be used to improve industrial planning.
