In this paper, we present the researches leaded in the context of the RESCUE-IT project. The aim of this project is to propose new means to improve the supply chain resilience against intrusions. In particular, we describe the deployment of communicating objects that are RFIDs and sensors in a warehouse of dangerous goods. A dynamic risk management is then possible by monitoring in real-time the respect...
Though the atmospheric environment accident occurred frequently in recent years, there has been still no effective method for risk sources identification now. Based on simulating the whole process of accident, namely the sources, the development and the influences of the atmosphere environmental accident, a model database was constructed. Additionally, an identification method for Atmospheric Risk...
The petrochemical industry is a high environmental risk industry because a large amount of toxic, hazardous, flammable and explosive substances were used in the processes of manufacture and operation. If the accidents of the leakage of chemicals, explosions and fires occurred, it would lead to release of toxic substances. The accidental releases are very dangerous to the republic health and the environmental...
The chemical industry park is the product that the modern chemical industry adapts to the resources or raw materials conversion, complies with the international, intensive, large-scale operation, the development trend for the optimization and the most efficiency. It is the leading direction for achieving the long-term development of the chemical industry. With the rapid economic development and boom...
Risk Based Inspection (RBI) is an emerging method of inspection, which integrates risk along with current deterministic approaches for prioritizing and managing the efforts of an inspection program. A pilot study on implementation of RBI was conducted in a hydrogen sulphide based chemical plant in India. The RBI study was reviewed by the regulatory authority. This paper highlights the modification...
The risk of chemical site imposes on nearby vulnerabilities is of great concern and remains undefined. Risk severity index is devised to illustrate the risk levels in a simple and understandable way, with SLAB modeling the exposure of vaporizable substances. Risk and vulnerability mapping are both presented on the platform of GIS, and the distribution of vulnerability in different risk leveled areas...
The risk level of potential environmental pollution accidents in a chemical plant is determined by a number of criteria, and the risk assessment and ranking of potential accidents among a limited number of chemical plants is a multi-criteria process in which the fuzziness and relativity should be considered. So the paper proposed a fuzzy ranking methodology for risk assessment, which does not calculate...
Transportation of dangerous goods is an important part in logistics system. Because of the characteristics of high-risk, the risk management of transport of dangerous goods are put more attention at home and abroad. The analysis on transportation risk of dangerous goods is at macro level, the study on risk is not investigated in nature. This paper is to discuss the environmental risk during dangerous...
Environmental risk management (ERM) is updated on the city emergency response system (CERC) in Nanning City, China. The technical routine developed better support effective urban ERM in the Nanning CERC. Started from identification of risk sources, programs of sources monitoring, risk prediction and early warning, treatment and disposal, and management with update were discussed. This work highlights...
Many, if not most, risk assessors allege that their methods of risk identification and risk estimation are wholly objective. Contrary to this view, it can be shown that a variety of value judgments are inherent in classical risk assessment methods. In addition to these methodological threats to objectivity, there are at least three ethical problems which require risk assessors or policymakers to make...
