Introduction

In-depth interpretation of the requirements for emergency rescue materials in hazardous chemical units

1. Background of standard formulation and analysis of technological evolution

This standard "Requirements for emergency rescue materials in hazardous chemical units" (GB30077-2023) replaces the original GB30077-2013, and mainly revises the allocation principles, material types and performance requirements. The new standard combines the diversity and complexity of hazardous chemical accidents, and adds more modern technical equipment and advanced applicable equipment to meet the needs of emergency rescue in the new era.

Actual case analysis

For example, in a chlorine gas leak accident in a chemical plant, the positive pressure air respirators and gas detectors equipped in accordance with the new standard played a key role, avoiding casualties caused by inhalation of toxic gases by rescue workers.

2. Classification of hazardous chemical units and material allocation framework

Types of hazardous chemical units	Number of employees	Operating income	Level of major hazard sources
Category I	More than 1,000 employees or more than 400 million yuan	-	Level I and above
Category II	300-1,000 employees or 200-400 million yuan	-	Level II and above
Category III	Less than 300 people or less than 200 million yuan	-	No major hazard source

3. Principles and requirements for emergency rescue supplies

• Targeted: Configure according to the unit's production process, types of hazardous chemicals and accident characteristics.
• Matching: Ensure that the system is matched, fully functional and sufficient in quantity.
• Advanced applicability: Prioritize equipment with advanced performance, lightness, efficiency, safety and durability.

4. Comparison of material equipment of workplaces and enterprise emergency rescue teams

Material categories	Equipment requirements for workplaces	Equipment requirements for enterprise emergency rescue teams
Positive pressure air respirator	1 set/workplace	2 sets/10 people, 5:1 spare
Chemical protective clothing	2 sets (for hazardous workplaces)	3 sets/10 people
Gas detector	2 units/location	2 units (according to the type of gas)

5. Implementation suggestions and management requirements

Implementation suggestions:

• Scientifically allocate emergency rescue materials according to the category of hazardous chemical units.
• Regularly check and maintain the allocated materials to ensure that they are in good condition.
• Establish a complete emergency material management system and records.
• Strengthen employee training and familiarize themselves with the use methods and technical performance of materials.

Summary

The revision of the "Emergency Rescue Material Allocation Requirements for Hazardous Chemical Units" fully reflects the requirements for the construction of a modern emergency rescue system. Through scientific classification, precise allocation and dynamic management, it ensures that casualties and property losses can be minimized in hazardous chemical accidents.
