Dangerous chemicals entered the national "special operations" list

On December 9, the State Administration of Work Safety issued regulations for the management of safety technical training for special operators (draft for comment). The regulations classify 11 categories of electrical work, high work, pressure vessel operations, mine operations, oil and gas safety operations, and hazardous chemical safety operations as special operations. Among them, the dangerous work of hazardous chemicals clearly lists 16 dangerous processes such as phosgene and phosgenation process operations, chloralkali electrolysis process operations, and chemical safety automated instrumentation operations. Industry insiders believe that the new regulations for the first time specify the scope of special operations for hazardous chemicals, which will help improve the safety and technical standards of special operators for hazardous chemicals and promote further improvement in the safety situation of hazardous chemicals.
Special operations are operations that are prone to casualties and can cause major harm to the safety of operators, others, and surrounding facilities. Special operators are those who directly engage in special operations. Our country’s laws provide that special operations shall have a system of holding certificates (special operation certificate). The regulations issued this time clearly stated the special operations training, examination and certification, reexamination, supervision and management, penalties, etc., and put forward special safety personnel training, assessment, certification work, unified supervision, graded implementation, teaching The principle of separation.
Senior Engineer Liu Hua of the Monitoring Center of Fujian Provincial Work Safety Supervision Bureau told the reporter that the “Measures for the Management of Special Operations Personnel Safety Technology Training Assessment” issued by the former State Economic and Trade Commission in 1999 listed 12 types of operations as special operations, among which there were no dangerous chemicals. Therefore, at that time, the operators of hazardous chemicals companies did not hold certificates, which to a certain extent affected the safety training and quality improvement of employees in the hazardous chemicals industry. The security of the hazardous chemicals industry was once severe.
In 2002, although the State Administration of Work Safety included the operation of dangerous goods containing hazardous chemicals in the scope of special operations and personnel, it did not specify which personnel of hazardous chemicals companies are special operators. In some localities, all employees of hazardous chemicals companies are included in the special operations personnel's strict management, while in others, the safety training and certificate management of hazardous chemicals operators are relaxed on the ground of ambiguous documents.
In recent years, China's hazardous production safety accidents, the production process is mostly chlorination, nitrification, synthetic ammonia and other 15 dangerous chemical processes. The reasons for analysis are mostly caused by the low level of safety operation skills of special operators and failure to understand the safety operation knowledge and rescue knowledge. For example, last year, the “3.17” ammonia leakage accident of Suizhou Dadi Chemical Co., Ltd. in Hubei Province was a typical safety accident caused by illegal operation of dangerous processes. To this end, the State Administration of Work Safety proposes to curb the production of safety hazards, on the one hand, it must strictly control the access of new projects for hazardous chemicals, and on the other hand, it must improve the quality of hazardous chemical employees, especially special operators.
Xu Qingrong, senior engineer of the Fujian Provincial Government Safety Production Group, told reporters that the key to doing a safe production job is to effectively prevent unsafe behavior and unsafe conditions of human beings, and improve the safety operation skills, safety protection, and rescue knowledge of special operators. An extremely urgent task to address the unsafe behavior of people in safety production. Xu Qingrong said that hazardous chemicals companies have a wide range of operations and the dangers are not uniform. Some dangerous operations can cause devastating safety accidents if they are mishandled. At present, which hazardous chemicals production process operators need to hold certificates, the national regulations have not yet clearly defined. Therefore, it is necessary to distinguish the types of operations in the hazardous chemicals industry and focus on strengthening supervision.
It is understood that the newly issued regulations will include phosgene and phosgenation, chloralkali electrolysis, chlorination, nitration, ammonia synthesis, cracking (cracking), fluorination, hydrogenation, diazotization, oxidation, peroxidation, amination, and sulfonation. Sixteen processes such as chemical, polymerization, alkylation, and chemical safety automation instruments are classified as hazardous chemical product safety operations. At the same time, the scope of application is clearly defined for various types of process operations. For example, chlorination process operations refer to the operations of liquid chlorine storage, gasification, and chlorination reactions. It is applicable to the replacement of chlorination, addition chlorination, and oxychlorination processes. Operation job. Nitrification process operation refers to the operation of nitration reaction and rectification separation. It is applicable to the operation process of direct nitration, indirect nitration and nitrosation processes.
Li Yunle, deputy general manager of Fujian Sannong Group, told the reporter that as a pesticide production enterprise, it is particularly important to attach great importance to the safety training and education of workers. He believes that the new regulations to be promulgated will set the scope of special operations for hazardous chemicals companies and enhance their operability. The company will strictly follow the requirements to strengthen the safety training and management of these 16 kinds of operating personnel. Cards are placed on posts to prevent human factors from causing safety accidents.
