Abstract
At present, in the process of production, operation, storage, transportation, use and disposal of petroleum and chemical solvents, major environmental disasters, such as fire, explosion and personal injury caused by leakage, are common. The disasters are often aggravated by the backward emergency disposal technology and improper operation. FG polymer is an inert, strong adsorptive material for hydrophobic substance, and the material is safe itself and non-toxic to aquatic fish and plants. In this study, FG polymer is tested in fire-fighting, explosion suppression and controling flowing fire. The result shows that the FG strong adsorption material can quickly absorb oil spill and leakage of hazardous chemicals on water and land surface, therefore controlling and eliminating the spread of flowing fire, isolating oxygen, extinguishing fire, suppressing explosion, and effectively avoiding environmental pollution. This technology can replace the backward emergency disposal methods such as oil spill dispersant, PP absorbent felt. With this technology being applied in emergence rescue, the disposal cost can be reduced by more than 50%, additionally the abilities of risk prevention, hidden danger elimination, and accident suppression can be enhanced significantly.
Highlights
China is a big chemical country in the world
By the end of 2018, the road transportation volume of dangerous goods accounted for 70% of the total transportation volume of dangerous goods [2]
The adsorption material was put into the tank, and the metal rod was stirred for 10 minutes
Summary
China is a big chemical country in the world. With the increasing demand for chemical products, China's crude oil output will reach 191 million tons in 2019, and the crude oil processing volume will reach 651.981 million tons [1]. According to the Requirements for Oil Spill Equipment at Ports and Wharves [4], a large number of backward facilities, such as oil spill dispersants, which are easy to pollute the water environment, are still used, which aggravates the damage degree of the ocean, atmosphere, aquatic fish and aquatic plants, and seriously affects the safety of human and urban environment. We must pay attention to the source of governance, and really solve the problem in the bud, before the spread [5]
