The successive occurrence of steel accidents has brought great pain and deep concern to people. Since 2023, it has been blasted by blast furnacesFall from a heightMechanical damageProduction safety accidents caused by various reasons such as fires occur frequently, resulting in the unfortunate loss of many workers' lives. Among them, I will focus on describing the occurrence of several accidents, and delve into the reasons behind the accidents and countermeasures.
February 9, 2023Ben steel plateThe three furnace front areas of the new No. 1 blast furnace operation area of the ironmaking plant are being rotated and repaired, but one happenedFall from a heightThe accident claimed the precious life of a worker. Such a tragedy is deeply deplorable. We have to reflect: whyFall from a heightFrequent accidents? is lackingSecurity awareness？StillOperating ProceduresDefective?
Fall from a heightThe occurrence of accidents often means for workersSecurity awarenessNot enough attention can also beOperating Proceduresof imperfections. In this case, we need to pay attention to the awareness of workers about their own safety and the effective implementation of work procedures by the regulatory authorities. At the same time, enterprises should strengthen the training and supervision of work at height, ensure that workers have safe operation skills, and provide necessary protective equipment to effectively avoid the recurrence of similar accidents.
On February 24, 2023, a distressing incident occurred at the Baoshan Iron and Steel Cold Rolling MillMechanical damageThe accident resulted in the unfortunate death of a worker. Machinery plays an important role in steel production, but it also poses significant safety hazards. ForMechanical damageWe must deeply analyze the reasons behind it and take corresponding preventive measures.
Mechanical damageThe occurrence of accidents often means improper equipment maintenance, non-standard operation and other problems. In this case, we can see that there are certain loopholes in the mechanical maintenance and maintenance work of Baoshan Iron and Steel Cold Rolling Mill. In order to preventMechanical damageIn the event of an accident, enterprises should strengthen the regular inspection and maintenance of equipment to ensure the normal and safe operation of equipment, and at the same time strengthen the training and training of workersSecurity awarenessto improve operational practices.
On March 27, 2023, Tongling CitySpecial steelThere was a driving crush accident in the steelmaking plant, resulting in two deaths. Driving crush accidents often occur in the steel production process, which poses a huge threat to the life safety of workers. The occurrence of this accident once again reminds us that iron and steel enterprises must strengthen their driving operationsSecurity management
The occurrence of driving crush accidents is often due to improper operation or operation of personnelenvironmentunreasonable. In this case, we can see that the rotational force of Tongling CitySpecial steelThere are obvious potential safety hazards in the process of driving operations, such as failure to set up effective limit warning lights. In order to avoid the occurrence of similar accidents, enterprises should strengthen the supervision and training of driving operations to ensure that operators master the correct operation skills and do a good jobenvironmentsecurity improvements.
On April 23, 2023, Shanxi Taigang Wanbang Charge*** occurredGasPoisoning accident, resulting in 1 death and 2 acute industrial poisoning. GasPoisoning is one of the common risk factors in iron and steel enterprises, which needs to be paid close attention to by enterprises and workers.
GasPoisoning accidents often occur as a result of:GasLeakage, poor ventilation, etc. In this case, we can see that Shanxi TISCO Wanbang Charge *** may existGasProblems such as leaks in pipelines or failure of safety valves. For preventionGasIn the event of a poisoning accident, enterprises should strengthen itGasPipeline maintenance and inspection to ensureGasThe system operates safely and reliably, while strengthening the requirements for worker training and safe operation.
On May 27, 2023, a lifting injury accident occurred at the *** steelmaking plant of Shanghai Meishan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., resulting in one death. Lifting injuries are one of the common types of accidents in the steel industry, which requires a high degree of vigilance from both businesses and workers.
Lifting injury accidents are often caused by improper operation of lifting equipment or damage to equipment. In this case, we can see that the lifting injury accident of Shanghai Meishan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. may be related to improper equipment maintenance and non-standard operation. In order to avoid the occurrence of similar accidents, enterprises should strengthen the maintenance and overhaul of lifting equipment, update equipment if necessary, and strengthen the requirements for workers' skills training and operation specifications.

In this case, we can see that Yuxi Xianfu Iron and Steel (Group) ** is in the blast furnaceGasDry processDuring the commissioning of the dust removal system equipment, there may be problems such as the failure of the furnace gas to be effectively discharged. In order to prevent the occurrence of suffocation accidents, enterprises should strengthen the ...GasManagement and maintenance of the drainage and ventilation system to ensure that it worksenvironmentsafety and health, while strengthening the training of workers and the requirements for safe operation.
This series of steel accidents has sounded the alarm bell for us, and we must attach great importance to safety production work. Iron and steel enterprises should keep in mind safety first, strengthen publicity and education, and improve employeesSecurity awarenessand emergency response capabilities. At the same time, enterprises need to strengthen the maintenance and overhaul of equipment to ensure the safe operation of equipment. Employees should strictly adhere to itOperating Proceduresand do it wellSelf-preservation, always keepSecurity awareness。Only by working together can we create a good safe productionenvironmentto avoid the recurrence of similar tragedies. It is hoped that in the new year, the steel industry will be able to further improve the level of safety and create a safer job for employeesenvironment
