사회 기간산업이라 할수 있는 전기, 가스 석유등의 대단위 산업설비들은 사고 발생시 대량의 인명, 재산 피해를 가져오기 때문에 고도의 안전관리 시스템 하에서 운용되고 있다 이러한 기존 산업설비들의 안전관리는 서로 분산, 독립적인 안전관리 시스템들을 사용하고 있다 분산, 독립적인 안전관리 시스템은 산업설비에 대한 사고나 고장발생시 대부분 사람에 의존한 상황처리 작업을 수행하게 된다. 즉 사고가 발생하면 다른 안전관리 시스템들을 확인하고 그 결과를 통합하는 과정을 거처 상황처리에 대한 대책을 세우게 된다 이러한 과정은 추가적인 인력소모와 시간소모가 발생하게 되고 상황처리자의 미숙한 상황처리로 인한 사고가 발생하기도 한다. 본논문에서는 이러한 독립 안전관리 시스템의 단점을 극복하고 사고 발생시 신속, 정확하고 효율적인 상황처리를 위해 개별적인 안전관리 모니터 시스템들을 통합하는 방법을 제시한다. 또한 기존의 독립적이고 단편적인 상황추론을 국복하고자 통합된 지식베이스와 모니터 시스템들의 실시간 자료에 근거한 블랙보드 기반의 제어지식을 이용하여 종합적인 상황추론을 수행한다. 이를 위하여 각 시설물들에 대한 고장진단 시스템을 포함하는 지능형 원격감시 제어 통합시스템을 제안한다.

The number of fuel gas accidents is increasing in domestic fuel gas facilities as increasing the supply area. To prevent gas accident, the government institutions related to fuel gas industry partly collected and managed the information of physical properties and safety data. Due to the overlap of data between institutions, collecting and managing the safety information was inefficient. The purpose of this research is developing geographic information system which providing the information of quantitative risk assessment, accident prevention plan, and efficient sharing and managing of the system.

Although the usage of gas as one of the most economical energy source is ever expanding, numerous gas accidents occur as a result of negligence in safety management. The main reason behind such accident is that the current safety control system relies heavily on the manual control mechanism. This paper designed and developed a prototype of a computerized gas safety control system that automates such critical functions as the alarm sensing and the valve control. Since the system is connected through a digital network, the control can be performed remotely. Most importantly, the accidental risk or damage can be greatly reduced since the system monitors and reacts actively to gas leakage in real time.

Valve leak accidents in petrochemistry plants and gas utilities cause human and property damage. The main reason why happen gas inhalation, poisoning, fire and explosion accidents is gas valve leakage. To prevent gas leakage, inspectors check the facilities in the field. And they are at risk of gas leak accidents. So we applied IoT-based risk assessment, monitoring and automatic control system. It can detect both internal and external gas leakage, do real-time monitoring of industrial valve in the plant by using hybrid sensor. As the new safety management system for industrial valve is developed, it needs method to evaluate device performance and environmental components for the system. This study is about development of method to verify performance of the explosion-proofed hybrid sensing system include gas detector and optical fiber sensor supporting wire and wireless communication.

It is necessary to control and evaluate human factors to reduce economic loss by major accident in toxic gas facilities. Conventional works to evaluate hazards have been focused on mechanical and systematic failure, while only a little works have been studied on managing human errors. In this work, a classification system of performance shaping factor (PSF) was suggested to consist human error in managing accident in the toxic gas facilities. Four types of PSFs (human, system, task characteristics, and task environment) were collected, reviewed, and analyzed to be categorized selected according their characteristics of situational, task, and environmental parameters. The PSFs were further modified to set up PSF systems adequate to evaluate human error, and the proposed system to consist PSFs to evaluate human error was further studied through accident analysis in toxic gas facilities.

Though a valve is a very important part in a system to control properly, it has potential failure caused by gap from valve stem to ball connection, and abrasion, crack, fixation causing operational trouble and accidents. 64% of the valve failure in the real case was the failure of airtightness and most accidents of leakage and explosion were occurred while fixing the failure. While there are no proper safety manual, maintenance procedure and regulation for industrial valves excluding safety valve, safety management for the valves is left to the discretion of the maintenance company. Strict maintenance that removes hazards and emergency response procedure are required to prevent and reduce the loss of accident. This study suggests safety enhancement measures through valve monitoring by investigating the status of use of valve and current maintenance. Enhancement of gas safety management can be acquired by a monitoring system that provides diagnosis for valve status, monitoring real-time gas leakage, management of entire cycle lifetime that can reduce maintenance cost.

The safety of industrial valves, which are the core parts of plant facilities, are managed by manpower and there are difficulties because of side area for inspection and limited accessibility due to the nature of facilities. The industrial valves used in plant facilities cause problems such as interrupted production; a loss of life due to leak or explosion of poisonous material and flammable gases, and difficulty in locating accident positions in the event of leakage or failure. Therefore, safety management and control systems based on IoT technology are needed. This study is about the development of risk factor prediction technique among the safety management of industrial valves through IoT- based wireless communication and the development of actuator control system. We have developed IoT-based industrial valve safety management techniques to prevent accidents caused by main risk factors by conducting an analysis of the structural characteristics of valves and an analysis of the causes of main risk factors through review of failure data and literature and an analysis of accident scenarios.
