We're currently dealing with Google Search Console reports and trying to minimize the number of errors for SEO. There is a url listed as ourdomain.com/0+H, which doesn't exist so we're trying to set up a redirect on it in Retour, but Retour is removing the "+" in the url which is causing the redirect to fail. If we url encode the "+" sign to %2B then we end up with a circular redirect.

Are there any recommendations you have for how we can handle this via Retour?

Did you do an Exact Match redirect or a RegEx redirect? A screenshot of the redirect in question would be helpful here.
