Boiler is a hazardous equipment to have potential explosion ail the time. And not only it has malfunction at explosion. it lead to people death but also secondary accident such as explosion and fire. Therefore, this equipment should not be broken for keeping its own function. And also, high level of safety should be kept in the process of the use not to be malfunctioned. A large scale of accident due to boiler explosion can be preventive in advance. Boiler fracture is occurred by instant expansion (approximately 1700 time) from quick evaporation of rater in boiler, due to pressure decrease in boiler Emitting energy from it is tremendous and it is so dangerous because of its high temperature. Secondary explosion such as fire is also a main hazard occurring at fuel supply place. If any devices with high pressure is broken, then not only boiler vessel but also components of it are spread with high speed, causing secondary accident. This study is to analyze integrally accident cause of fire and flue tube boiler to have occurred pressure fracture actually, to show countermeasures to prevent accident loss from the fire and flue tube boiler.

이 논문에서는 2층 건물 지하층의 다방에서 가스냄새가 난다고 119신고가 되어 소방대원들이 출동하여 옥상에 있는 LPG 가스통들의 밸브를 직접 잠그고 지하층 다방의 중간밸브의 잠금 상태를 확인하고 현장에 도착한 가스공급 및 설치 업자에게 안전조치를 취하도록 요구하고 철수한 후 7분 만에 가스폭발사고가 발생하여 2명이 사망하고 21명이 부상을 입은 사례를 분석하고 있다. 법원은 가스폭발사고의 원인이 규명되지 아니하였으므로 가스공급 및 설치 업자와 한국가스안전공사에 배상 책임을 물을 수 없고 안전조치를 하지 않고 철수한 소방기관에게만 배상책임이 있다고 판결하였다. 그러므로 가스가 누설된다고 119신고가 되는 경우에 출동한 소방대는 가스 밸브를 잠그고 사람들을 대피시키거나 접근하지 못하게 하고 환기를 시키는 등 안전조치를 하고 화재나 폭발가능성이 없음을 확인한 후 철수해야 한다.

The destruction by accident is affected by the blast of explosion. However, there are few of research on the external effect of vented gas explosions. Therefore it is necessary to study the effect of vented explosion. This study aims to find the characteristics of gas explosion, and the effect of vented gas explosion. Using an explosion chamber, we obtained a LPG explosion characteristics according to the vent size and concentration. The result of experiment showed that the explosion pressure effect to external space was much stronger than inner space during the course of a gas explosion. And the external pressure become higher in explosion pressure as the vent diameter become smaller.

It is very important to classify explosion hazardous area in order to prevent an accident explosion. In order to prevent such a explosion, the Industrial Safety and Health Standards Rules stipulates the establishment and management of explosion hazards in accordance with the criteria set by the Korean Industrial Standards. This study has investigated the range of the explosion hazardous area according to various hole sizes, pressures, vapor densities, and wind velocities in the outdoor flammable liquid tank using KS C IEC-60079-10-1 $2^{nd}$ Ed.(=IEC CODE) and PHAST. The results show that the explosion hazardous areas by IEC CODE have circle shapes. However, the areas by PHAST show ellipse shapes. The different of the explosion hazardous areas increases with the increase of wind velocity.

The fire and explosion properties necessary for waste, safe storage, transport, process design and operation of handling flammable substances are lower explosion limits(LEL), upper explosion limits(UEL), flash point, AIT( minimum autoignition temperature or spontaneous ignition temperature), fire point etc., An accurate knowledge of the combustion properties is important in developing appropriate prevention and control measures fire and explosion protection in chemical plants. In order to know the accuracy of data in MSDSs(material safety data sheets), the flash point of phenol was measured by Setaflash, Pensky-Martens, Tag, and Cleveland testers. And the AIT of phenol was measured by ASTM 659E apparatus. The explosion limits of phenol was investigated in the reference data. The flash point of phenol by using Setaflash and Pensky-Martens closed-cup testers were experimented at $75^{\circ}C$ and $81^{\circ}C$, respectively. The flash points of phenol by Tag and Cleveland open cup testers were experimented at $82^{\circ}C$ and $89^{\circ}C$, respectively. The AIT of phenol was experimented at $589^{\circ}C$. The LEL and UEL calculated by using Setaflash lower and upper flash point value were calculated as 1.36vol% and 8.67vol%, respectively. By using the relationship between the spontaneous ignition temperature and the ignition delay time proposed, it is possible to predict the ignition delay time at different temperatures in the handling process of phenol.

The number of fire and explosion accidents caused by pyrolysis oil and gas at waste plastic pyrolysis plants is increasing, but accident status and safety conditions have not been clearly identified. Therefore, the aim of the study was to identify the risks of the waste plastic pyrolysis process and suggest appropriate safety management measures. We collected information on 19 cases of fire and explosion accidents that occurred between 2010 and 2021 at 26 waste plastic pyrolysis plants using the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency (KOSHA) database and media reports. The mechanical, managerial, personnel-related, and environmental problems within a plant and problems related to government agencies and the design, manufacturing, and installation companies involved with pyrolysis equipment were analyzed using the 4Ms of Machines, Management, Man, and Media, as well as the System-Theoretic Accident Model and Processes (STAMP) methodology for seven accident cases with accident investigation reports. Study findings indicate the need for establishing legal and institutional support measures for waste plastic pyrolysis plants in order to prevent fire and explosion accidents in the pyrolysis process. In addition, ensuring safety from the design and manufacturing stages of facilities is essential, as are measures that ensure systematic operations after the installation of safety devices.

폭발한계는 가연성물질의 화재 및 폭발위험성을 결정하는데 주요한 특성치 가운데 하나이다. 많은 유기산류는 연소열과 폭발한계, 화학양론계수와 폭발한계가 상관관계가 있음을 보여주고 있다. 본 연구에서, 유기산류의 폭발하한계와 상한계에 대해 연소열과 화학양론계수를 이용하여 예측하였다. 제시된 예측식에 의한 예측값은 문헌값과 적은 오차범위에서 일치하였다. 제시된 방법론을 사용하여 다른 유기산류의 폭발한계 예측이 가능해졌다.

By using the reference data, the empirical equations which describe the interrelationships of explosion properties and physical properties of n-chlorinated hydrocarbons have been derived. The properties which have been correlated are the lower and upper explosive limits, the stoichiometric coefficients, the heats of combustion, the carbon numbers. Also, the new equations using the mathematical and statistical methods for predicting the temperature dependence of lower explosive limits(LEL) of chlorinated hydrocarbons on the basis of the literature data are proposed. The fire and explosion properties calculated by the proposed equations in this research were a good agrement with literature data within a few A.A.P.E.(Average Absolute Percent Error) and A.A.D.(Average Absolute Deviation.) From a given explosive properties, by using the proposed equations, it is possible to predict to the fire and explosion characteristics for the other chlorinated hydrocarbons.
