Abstract

In Korea, The protective action distance based on Canada's ERG has been adopted for safety of residents in case of hazardous chemicals leakage accident. However, it couldn't respond properly on the accidents because of geographical and meteorological differences between two nations. In this study, It was found that the protective action distance varies depending on season and terrain, Through AERMOD modeling analysis for the petrochemical complex reflected local geographical data and meteorological conditions.

유해화학물질 누출사고 시 피해 예상지역의 주민안전 확보를 위해 국내에서는 캐나다의 ERG를 기반으로 한 방호활동거리를 활용하고 있다. 그러나 국가별 지형적인 특성이나 기상조건 등이 상이하여 신뢰성 있는 대응에는 한계를 보여 왔다. 본 연구에서는 국내 특정 석유화학공단을 대상으로 지형자료, 기상조건 등을 반영한 AERMOD 모델링 분석을 통해 방호활동거리가 계절별, 지형별로 다소 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다.
