At 5:33 a.m. on February 23National Taiwan UniversityA fire broke out in a laboratory in the Chemistry Department's Chemistry Building, and the fire alarm sounded piercingly, which immediately attracted the attention and emergency response of the university. FirefightingThe department quickly dispatched a total of 18 vehiclesFire trucks, 2 ambulances, 3 command vehicles and 61 peopleFirefightingPersonnel quickly rushed to the scene to carry out rescue work. According to preliminary investigations, this timeFireOccurs on the 7th floor of the laboratory, ** the substance is mainly debris, and the burning area is about 2 square meters. FirefightingPersonnel quickly carried out emergency treatment, and the fire was brought under control at 6:04, and at 6:06FireCompletely extinguished. Fortunately, there were no *** people in the fire this time. Currently,SchoolsFurther investigation is ongoing to determineFirespecific causes, and assess the relevant property losses. At the same time,SchoolsCampus safety notices have been made to the relevant competent departments in accordance with relevant regulations.
However, inNational Taiwan UniversityIn recent years, and especially last year, there have been multiple incidentsFireThe accident has brought a major threat to campus safety. On August 17 last year, an incident occurred in the laboratory of the Department of Chemical Engineering of the university, resulting in 9 injuries and being sent to the hospital; On August 30, black smoke also came out of a supermarket on campus due to a fire in the ceiling, but fortunately the fire was quickly extinguished. After inspection, it was found that the burning at the site was only debris, and did not affect the toxic chemicals listed in the announcement. In addition, the environmental protection department also carried out real-time monitoring of the air quality in the surrounding environment, and the results showed that all values were within the normal range, and no abnormalities were found. These twoFireThe incident reminds us once again of the importance of ensuring the safety of our laboratories.
In order to improve the level of safety management in the laboratory, utilizeInternet of Things technologyIt is imperative to strengthen security monitoring. First, we can install smart sensors and monitoring devices to monitor the situation in critical areas such as laboratories in real time. These devices can detect safety hazards such as temperature, smoke, gas leaks, and immediately issue an alarm when an anomaly is detected, alerting the relevant personnel to take appropriate action. This allows for timely detection and treatmentFireand other potential safety hazards to avoid accidents. Secondly, by building a safety management system platform, various safety equipment, monitoring systems and personnel can be usedInformation integrationfor unified monitoring and management. By analyzing and assessing the campus security posture in real time, potential security risks can be identified in advance and corresponding measures can be taken to prevent them. These measures will be:Schoolsand relevant departments to provide more comprehensive and effective safety management tools.
In short,Schoolsand relevant departments shall strengthen the safety management of laboratories, improve the safety awareness of teachers and students, and ensure the safety and stability of campuses. At the same time, we also hope that teachers and students can consciously abide by safety regulations and jointly create a safe and harmonious campus environment. It is only through continuous efforts that we will be able to prevent itFireand other safety accidents, forSchoolsThe safety of teachers and students is guaranteed. I believe that with the joint efforts of all partiesNational Taiwan UniversityThe laboratory safety problem will be effectively solved, for:Academic researchProvide a better environment and conditions. Let's work together to make the line of defense for security stronger and the campus safer and more stable!
