Abstract

This study was based on nitrate chemical accidents at home and abroad. Toxic gases due to adverse reactions are generated in the workplace, laboratory, hospital, container damage, and chemical misinjection. Through a case review of possible situations and safety, this study analyzed various cases of accidents, accident status, accident type, cause of the accident, location of the accidents, etc. from 2014 to 2018. The plans for improvement in education and nitrate accidents were reviewed. As a result, 36 nitrate chemical accidents were investigated, including 16 careless worker accidents, eight transportation accidents, and 12 facilities shortages. Nitrate chemical accidents are occurring continuously. Based on this, the range of toxic effects using CARIS was calculated at the worst-case scenario, and the effective response range was measured through the damage impact range. For this purpose, the impact range was predicted based on the strengthening of safety education, emergency action plan and correlation, and the quantified data was identified. In addition, the reliability of the scope of impact was reviewed based on the correlation formula that could facilitate the evacuation of residents, and it was applied to actual accident scenarios of the workplace to present the effects of the accident response and preventive measures.

본 연구는 국내·외에서 질산화학사고를 바탕으로 사업장, 실험실, 병원, 용기파손, 화학물질 오 주입으로 이상반응으로 인한 유독가스가 발생하고, 여러 사례들을 바탕으로 질산의 위험성과 화학사고 발생 시 발생할 수 있는 상황과 안전성에 대한 사례검토를 통해서 5년간의(2014년부터 2018년까지) 질산 화학사고 사례 대상으로 각 연도별, 사고현황, 사고유형, 사고원인, 사고 장소 등의 사례를 분석하여 안전교육과 질산화학사고 발생 시 개선 방안을 검토하였다. 그 결과 36건의 질산 화학사고가 조사되었으며, 그중 16건의 작업자 부주의사고가 발생하였고, 8건의 운송사고와 12건의 시설괸리 부족과 같은 사고가 발생하였다. 질산화학사고는 지속적으로 발생하고 있으며, 이를 바탕으로 CARIS를 활용한 독성영향범위를 최악에 시나리오를 산정하여, 피해영향범위를 통해서 효과적인 사고대응 범위를 측정하였고, 질산화학사고 초기대응방법과 사고예방을 위해서 안전교육 강화와 비상조치계획과 상관관계식을 바탕으로 영향범위를 예측하여, 정량화된 자료를 파악하였다. 또한 주민대피 선정이 수월하게 할 수 있는 상관관계식을 바탕으로 영향범위의 신뢰성을 검토하고, 실제 사업장 사고 시나리오에 적용하여 사고 시 비상상황에 사고대응 효과와 예방대책을 제시하였다.
