Abstract


AI-driven robotics are revolutionizing hazardous material handling in petrochemical plants, significantly enhancing safety and operational efficiency. This paper explores the technologies and methodologies utilized in AI-enabled robotic systems designed for managing hazardous materials. By presenting case studies, the paper highlights the benefits of using these robotics, including reduced risks to human operators, improved precision in material handling, and enhanced compliance with safety regulations. Additionally, the challenges of implementing AI-driven robotics in complex petrochemical environments are discussed, along with future prospects for their integration into hazardous material management.
