Objectives: The objectives of this study are to introduce the development process of work situations and types in the revised regulations on wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) for hazardous chemical handlers, analyze the implementation of the regulations, and then provide basic data for future education strategies. Methods: The development process of work situations for regulation was explained through a flowchart by year. In 2018, a survey of 30 chemical managers and 201 managers and handlers was conducted based on recognition of work situations and the related regulations. In 2019, 91 chemical managers and 204 handlers were surveyed to find the degree of compliance with regulations, direction for improvement of understanding the regulations, and training methods. Results: Only 78.0% of chemical managers and 66.7% of handlers said they were aware of the regulations (p<0.05). Just 79.0% of handlers knowing the regulations said they would wear PPE in compliance with these regulations. Therefore, the best way to make workers wear proper PPE in accordance with regulations is to strengthen the promotion of education on regulations. In order to improve the quality of education, 51.7% of managers and 33.3% of handlers cited educational content (video, ppt, etc.) as the top priority. Conclusion: This study suggested that more educational opportunities should be provided and educational content should be developed in order for workers handling hazardous chemicals to wear PPE as prescribed in regulations.

Lack of understanding of the process chemistry and thermodynamics are the major reasons that can is lead to thermal runaway reaction in the chemical reaction process. The evaluation of reaction factors and thermal behavior in neutralization process of pigment plant are described in this paper. The experiments were performed in the C 80 calorimeter, and Thermal Screening Unit($TS^{u}$). The aim of the study was to evaluate the results of thermal stability in terms of safety reliability to be practical applications. It suggested that we be proposed safe operating conditions and securities for accident prevention through this study.

Since 1996, like other countries the PSM(Process Safety Management) System has been applied into chemical plant in Korea in accordance with the Occupational Safety & Health Law section 49 paragraph 2. This report is to point out the status and the area of concern, further suggest alternative measures along with the wide and in-depth idea of improvement and recommendation to prevent from industrial accident.

There are PFD(Process Flow Diagram) and P&ID(Piping and Instrument Diagram) for designing and managing chemical process efficiently. They provide the operation condition and equipment specifications of chemical process, but they do not provide the reliability of chemical process. Therefore, in this study, Reliability Flow Diagram(RFD) which provide the cycle and time of preventive maintenance has been developed using Directed Graph Analysis methodology. Directed Graph Analysis methodology is capable of assessing the reliability of chemical process. It models chemical process into Directed Graph with nodes and arcs and assesses the reliability of normal operation of chemical process by assessing Directed Graph sequential. In this paper, the chemical process reliability transition according to operation time was assessed. And then, Reliability Flow Diagram has been developed by inserting the result into P&ID. Like PFD and P&ID, Reliability Flow Diagram provide valuable and useful information for the design and management of chemical process.

Natural gas, one of the cleanest fossil fuel, is liquefied to reduce its volume for the long distance transportation. Small size floating liquefied natural gas plant has small area that safe issue is highly considered. However, Dual Mixed Refrigerants (DMR) process has fire potential by using flammable refrigerants and N2 Expander process has low compressed energy efficiency which has high inherent process safety. Therefore, safe process with high compressed energy efficiency is constantly needed. This study suggested an alternative refrigerants to existing DMR process by using Hydrofluorocarbon which has high safety due to its non-flammable properties. As a result, it showed 34.8% lower compressed energy efficiency than DMR process that contains fire potential whereas 42.6% improved compressed energy efficiency than Single N2 Expander process. In conclusion, this research proposed safe process for small size floating liquefied natural gas plant while having high efficiency.

The problem addressed in this study is that the reduction in process accidents is less than the reduction in industrial safety, and the losses from major accidents in the oil and gas processing industry have not decreased over the years. In particular, current risk approaches in storage tanks place more emphasis on improving the safety of the design than maintaining safe operation. The Bow-Tie method can be used properly to improve process safety. The Bow-Tie method can assess compliance by focusing on operational aspects, clearly highlighting all important safety barriers, and analyzing barrier effectiveness.

The autoignition temperature (AIT) is crucial combustible characteristics which need attention in chemical process that handle hazardous materials. The AIT, also to as minimum spontaneous ignition temperature(MSIT), is the lowest temperature of a hot surface at which the substance will spontaneously ignite without any obvious sources of ignition such as a spark or flame. The AIT may be used as combustion property to specify operating, storage, and materials handling procedures for process safety. This study measured the AITs of n-propanol+acetic acid system from ignition delay time(time lag) by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The AITs of n-propanol and acetic acid which constituted binary system were $435^{\circ}C$ and $212^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental AITs of n-propanol+acetic acid system were a good agreement with the calculated AITs by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D.(average absolute deviation). In the case of n-propanol and acetic acid system, the minimum autoignition temperature behavior (MAITB), which is lower than the lower AIT, is shown among the two pure substances constituting the mixture.

The event of a Chemical disaster response personnel are causative events quickly Appearance & residual contaminant concentrations, should be identified accurately. In addition, the chemical disaster response procedure appropriate progress in the field of Chemical Composition and contaminant concentrations in order confirmation is essential. Use in the field to using the characteristics of each equipment. on-Site response equipment can not verify all the chemicals, materials detection, limited by each equipment.

In the past vaporized gases from a carrier were burned or used for fuel. Due to the movement of bigger LNG carriers and using diesel engine, it is limited that ways of deposing vaporizes gases from the carrier by the act of environment. For getting over the problem, a reliquefaction process is considered. Even though the reliquefaction process was created to three generation process, it has been researched and developed to optimize the process. Basically the reliquefaction process is compartmentalized into Reverse Brayton Cycle System and Claude Cycle System. This research is focused on the reliquefaction efficiency with the systems and changing equipments arrangement by using HYSYS. The result could be use for a design of a reliquefaction process.
