Chemical products have had an favorable influence on our everyday life, and contributed very much to the development of human culture. According to the rapid change of industry and the development of scientific technique the using chemical products are increasing more and more. Chemical products can have any hazardous property such as flammability or explosiveness. There are occurring many accidents in the international trade due to the different classification and labelling of chemicals produced in various countries. The main purpose of this work is the development of global standard test methods for the chemicals, and the classification and labelling in building block approach by means of the basic technical data. Oxidizing solids, combustible solids, spontaneously combustible materials, water-prohibitive materials, flammable liquids, self-reactive materials and oxidizing liquids have been classification The first Experiment have tested Oxidizing solids of third five. The results have been classified according to the hazard material safety regulation and the UN regulation, and summarized in a data-base.

고형연료(RDF)는 가연성 폐기물을 성형된 형태로 만드는 것으로 화석연료의 대체 에너지로 이용되어질 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 일반 소각설비에 비해 수송성, 저장성이 뛰어나며 발열량이 거의 일정하여 연소 안정성이 우수하고 액체연료나 기체연료의 비해 경제성과 안정성이 높다는 장점이 있다. 하지만 고형연료의 미량 포함되어 있는 중금속 물질에 의해 연소장치의 부식이나 시설 노후 촉진화와 같은 원인을 제공하며, 심각한 환경오염원의 전구물질이 생성될 수 있어 실용화에는 큰 장해 요인이 되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에는 고형연료의 재료가 되는 폐기물을 분석하여, 중금속성분이 미치는 영향을 조사하고 부존자원의 최적 이용 방안을 도출하며, 이를 바탕으로 부존자원 액상/고상 연료화 기술, 부존자원 복합이용시스템, 폐열활용 시스템과 같은 기술에 적용하여 부존자원 재활용 및 에너지를 최적 활용할 수 있는 D/B 구축을 하는 것이 최종 목표이다.

Flash point is the one of the important properties for the safe handling of inflammable liquid solution. In this paper, flash points of binary liquid solutions, water+1-propanol and water+2-propanol, were been measured by using Seta flash closed cup aparatus. Flash point was estimated using regression analysis method. Flash points were also estimated by the method based on Raoul's law and the method optimizing the binary parameters of van Laar equation. Experimental results were compared with the calculated results. The regression analysis method is able to estimate the flash point fairly well for water+1-propanol and water+2-propanol mixture.

지난 8월 13일 서울 종로구 소격동 국립현대미술관 서울관 공사현장에서 화재 발생으로 4명이 숨지고 18명이 중경상을 입는 등 많은 인명피해를 냈다. 이처럼 인명피해가 컸던 것은 우레탄 공사를 하던 밀폐공간에서 불이 나면서 발생한 유독가스 때문에 사람들이 제대로 대피하지 못했기 때문이다. 사고발생 원인으로 '용접공사' 여부를 놓고 공방을 벌였으나 경찰은 '전기합선'이라는 잠정 결론을 내렸다. 지난 2008년 1월에 발생한 경기도 이천 냉동창고 화재는 40명의 목숨을 앗아갔다. 화재 원인은 냉동배관을 설치하면서 전기 용접을 하기 위해 불을 붙였다가 공기 중에 차 있던 유증기(기름증기)와 만나면서 폭발이 일어난 것이었다. 인화성 액체(유기용제)를 취급하는 건설현장에서는 다량의 유증기가 발생할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 건조한 조건일 경우 정전기에 의한 화재 폭발 누출사고의 발생 위험이 높다. 기계설비공사에서 화재, 폭발 위험성이 가장 큰 공사는 용접공사이기에 용접공사를 할 때 화재, 감전의 위험성을 배제한 후 공사에 들어간다. 용접으로 인한 사망사고의 유형으로는 용접 중 추락사고와 더불어 용접 불꽃이 가연성 물질에 옮겨 붙어 화재 발생으로 인한 질식사, 용접작업 중 절연체가 파손된 용접기 홀더 충전부의 접촉으로 인한 감전사 등이 있다. 본지는 용접으로 인한 화재 감전 등의 사고발생을 미연에 방지하기 위해 안전작업 수칙 및 안전수칙 체크리스트, 재해사례를 지난호부터 시리즈로 연재하고 있다.

The flash point is one of the most important properties for characterizing the fire and explosion hazard of liquid solutions. In this study, a Tag open-cup apparatus was used to measure the flash points of two flammable binary mixtures, n-decane + n-octanol and acetic acid + n-butanol. The flash point temperature was estimated using the UNIFAC (Universal Functional Activity Coefficient) group contribution model and optimization method. The experimentally derived flash point was also compared with the predicted flash point. The two methods can estimate the flash point fairly well for the n-decane + n-octanol and acetic acid + n-butanol systems.

The flash point is one of the most important parameters used to characterize the ignition and explosion hazards of liquids. Flash points were measured for several binary systems containing toluene, including {methanol+toluene}, {ethanol+toluene}, and {1-propanol+toluene}. Experiments were performed according to the standard test method using a SETA closed cup flash point tester. The measured flash points were compared with the predicted values calculated using the following $G^E$ models: Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC. The average absolute deviation between the predicted and measured lower flash point was less than 1.69 K.

The flash point is one of the most important properties for characterizing the fire and explosion hazard of liquid solutions. In this study, the flash points of two flammable binary mixtures, n-pentanol + n-propanol and n-pentanol + n-heptanol systems were measured using a Seta flash closed cup tester. The flash point was estimated using the methods based on Raoult's law and multiple regression analysis. The measured flash points were also compared with the predicted flash points. The absolute average errors (AAE) of the results calculated by Raout's law were $1.3^{\circ}C$ and $1.3^{\circ}C$ for the n-pentanol + n-propanol and n-pentanol + n-heptanol mixtures, respectively. The absolute average errors of the results calculated by multiple regression analysis were $0.4^{\circ}C$ and $0.3^{\circ}C$ for the n-pentanol + n-propanol and n-pentanol + n-heptanol mixtures, respectively. According to the AAE, the calculated values based on multiple regression analysis were better than those based on Raoult's law.

The spreading fire of very small floating particles after they are ignited is fast and t therefore dangerous. The research on this area has been limited to experiments and global simulations which treat them as dusts or gaseous fuel with certain concentration well m mixed with air. This research attempted micro-scale analysis of ignition of those particles modeling them as liquid droplets. For the beginning, the in-line array of fuel droplets is modeled by two-dimensional, unsteady conservation equations for mass, momentum, energy and species transport in the gas phase and an unsteady energy equation in the liquid phase. They are solved numerically in a generalized non-orthogonal coordinate. The single step chemical reaction with reaction rate controlled by Arrhenius’ law is assumed to a assess chemical reaction numerically. The calculated results show the variation of temperature and the concentration profile with time during evaporation and ignition process. Surrounding oxygen starts to mix with evaporating fuel vapor from the droplet. When the ignition condition is met, the exothermic reactions of the premixed gas initiate a and burn intensely. The maximum temperature position gradually approaches the droplet surface and maximum temperature increases rapidly following the ignition. The fuel and oxygen concentration distributions have minimum points near the peak temperature position. Therefore the moment of ignition seems to have a premixed-flame aspect. After this very short transient period minimum points are observed in the oxygen and fuel d distributions and the diffusion flame is established. The distance between droplets is an important parameter. Starting from far-away apart, when the distance between droplets decreases, the ignition-delay time decreases meaning faster ignition. When they are close and after the ignition, the maximum temperature moves away from the center line of the in-line array. It means that the oxygen at the center line is consumed rapidly and further supply is blocked by the flame. The study helped the understanding of the ignition of d droplet array and opened the possibility of further research.

Diesel, a kind of petroleum, which is used in vehicles, vessels, boilers etc causes great damage when a fire happens, because it has higher caloric value than gasoline or kerosene has at burning. Therefore, pool fire experiment was carried using diesel which is sold on the gas station and radiation heat flux that occurs from flame and inner temperature of flame at burning was estimated. The maximum instantaneous flame temperature of diesel was more than $900^{\circ}C$, and the average of maximum flame temperature was $800^{\circ}C$ which occurred at 0.5 H/D distance from the surface of inflammable liquid, the distance has more long that has the lower the temperature of flame. In case of radiation heat flux, it grew to vary according to the size and amount of sample. When the size of a container for experiment was 0.5 m and sample layer was 13 mm and 20 mm, the radiant heat was 92.29 kW and 117.43 kW each. When the container was 1.0 m, it was 364.35 kW and 405.88 kW each.
