Chlor-alkali workshop liquid chlorine finished product tank farm
A leak occurred during the filling of liquid chlorine cylinders
Individuals were unconscious due to inhalation of large amounts of chlorine gas
In order to improve the on-site command ability of emergency rescue personnel for hazardous chemical accidents and the ability to respond to emergencies and deal with emergenciesThe Dalian Municipal Emergency Bureau organized and guided the hazardous chemicals emergency rescue team to carry out a comprehensive emergency drill for chlorine leakage accidents.
After the drill began, two operators at the liquid chlorine filling position in the chlor-alkali workshop found that the liquid chlorine cylinder valve and bottle body were leaking during the filling process.
One of the employees had chlorine poisoning, and the other employee immediately closed the valve of the liquid chlorine storage tank, stopped the liquid chlorine filling, and immediately ran out of the leakage area to call the workshop chief to report to the officer. The "Emergency Plan for Hazardous Chemical Poisoning Accidents" was immediately activated, and the emergency rescue professional team rushed to the scene of the accident to carry out emergency rescue. The emergency rescue vehicle rushed to the scene of the accident along the emergency channel, and the medical staff carried out on-site emergency rescue of the injured, and then carried them to the emergency vehicle and sent them to the hospital for treatment.
Four members of the anti-chemical rescue team put on anti-chemical protection suits and air respirators, entered the scene of the accident, and activated the suction device to pump the leaked chlorine gas to the absorption tower. Three emergency responders laid fire hoses, used outdoor fire hydrants to supply water, and sprayed water with flowering water cannons to form a water curtain to capture and disperse the leakage of chlorine. Under the condition of safety protection, the anti-chemical team members dismantled the damaged valve of the liquid chlorine cylinder, replaced the new valve, and plugged the leakage of the cylinder body with pipe clamps. A small amount of chlorine gas diffuses along the wind direction to the downwind area, and the workshop personnel in the downwind area evacuate from the evacuation channel to the safe area along the upwind direction under the command of the groomer.
The drill tested the operability of the comprehensive emergency plan, the emergency response ability of employees and the timeliness of emergency communication from the links of response and reporting, emergency evacuation, emergency disposal, personnel first aid, communication and liaison, and completed the inspection of the whole process of the emergency plan and emergency response measures. Through the exercise, the emergency team was trained, the emergency equipment was tested, the emergency response level of the emergency rescue team members was improved, and the expected results were achieved.
Dalian City organized experts to carry out safety production diagnosis in the field of hazardous chemicals.
Entering December.
The temperature is gradually decreasing.
Dalian appeared continuously
Extreme weather such as strong winds, cooling, rain, snow and ice
The risk of safety production is more prominent.
Dalian Emergency Bureau staff reminded.
In winter, rain, snow and severe cold weather occur, hazardous chemical pipelines are prone to freezing and cracking, freezing and coagulation, such as heating and improper insulation will also cause leakage of hazardous chemicals, and accidents such as fire and fire occur
It is necessary to strengthen the safety control of key parts such as hazardous chemical production devices, tank farms, gas cabinets, pipelines, etc., and implement upgrade management for special operations such as fire during special periods, so as to ensure that winter protective measures such as anti-freezing, anti-condensation, anti-skid, and anti-static are in place
Urge enterprises to pay close attention to weather changes, organize "winter prevention" risk analysis and publicity and education, implement measures to prevent process fluctuations, poisoning, fire prevention, explosion prevention, etc., and strengthen the inspection and inspection of the integrity of high-temperature pumps, liquefied hydrocarbon pumps, flange seals, tee pipe fittings and pipelines, valves and welds
Resolutely put an end to illegal production, operation and transportation behaviors such as rushing the construction period, overload, overstrength, and overcapacity, and strictly prevent the occurrence of all kinds of hazardous chemical accidents.
Stay safe
Own tomorrow
Resolutely adhere to the red line of safety
Build a solid bottom line for safe production
