The chemical industry is a general term for enterprises and units engaged in chemical industry production and development, and is an indispensable and important part of the national economy. Vigorously developing fine chemicals has become a strategic focus for countries around the world to adjust the structure of the chemical industry, enhance the industrial level of the chemical industry, and expand economic benefits. At the same time, the petrochemical industry is a basic and pillar industry of the national economy, with a large economic volume and high industrial correlation, which is related to stable industrial growth and smooth economic operation.
Fine chemical products are of many types, high added value, and wide range of uses. They are important pillar industries of the national economy. However, with the development of the chemical industry, the types and application range of flammable, explosive, and toxic gases are constantly expanding. Once these gases leak during production, transportation, and use, they will cause poisoning, fire, and even explosion accidents, seriously endangering people’s lives and property safety. This is also the “pain point” that the chemical industry is often criticized for. While the chemical industry is developing at a high speed, it is also facing severe tests.
The chemical industry will face five challenges in 2024:
1 Risks brought by the access to construction projects. It is known that 62 large chemical projects have entered the stages of pending review, under construction and trial production, showing a wave of investment climax in chemical construction projects;
2 Risks brought by many trial production projects. It is expected that there will be a peak of trial production in 2024, but how to control the risks of trial production projects has not received high attention from all regions;
3 Risks brought by frequent starts and stops. Economic fluctuations, project transformation, etc. have led to more frequent starts and stops of enterprises, which will become a major cause of accidents;
4 Risks brought by large-scale equipment. With the advancement of technology, there has been a trend of large-scale equipment in the past 10 years, which has also brought systemic risks;
5 Risks brought by refined demand. Driven by the refinement of demand and the rapid development of new materials, new energy and other fields, dangerous process projects involving “five chemical” such as nitration have not been significantly reduced, a large number of hazardous chemical construction projects involving dangerous processes have not been included in the scope of licensing, and a large number of projects involving key regulated hazardous chemicals have not received attention for automation control upgrades.
Gas safety system solution for the chemical industry
In response to the gas safety issues in chemical parks, Chicheng Electric provides a “hardware + software + information technology” system solution. Starting from the customer’s pain points, it monitors the concentration of flammable and toxic and harmful gas leaks in real time, issues timely warnings, advances research and judgment, and pre-positions risk prevention and control checkpoints to prevent problems before they happen. The solution consists of an environmental equipment monitoring system, a data transmission system, and a data monitoring system. By placing various sensors such as flammable and toxic and harmful gas detection alarms in chemical parks, the gas leakage concentration and environmental parameters of each link in the chemical industry are monitored in real time.
Integrated system for intelligent monitoring of industrial gases
Chicheng Electric combines traditional hardware, the Internet of Things, mobile Internet, big data, cloud computing and other new generation information technologies, and builds a system architecture of cloud, pipe and terminal, integrating the equipment layer, network layer, cloud platform and application layer into an organic whole to realize the function of a smart platform.
Chicheng Electric’s intelligent chemical monitoring platform can monitor the entire chemical park, realize GIS map full-area monitoring, data analysis, smart inspection, alarm linkage, smart operation and maintenance, large-screen personalized management, mobile phone/text message/APP multi-channel push alarm information, remote control and other functions, accurately and effectively solve the challenging safety management problems such as real-time monitoring of enterprise safety production risks, hidden danger investigation and control, closed-loop management and scientific decision-making, and build a management effect of “one map for supervision and one table for enterprises”.
The overall solution conforms to the characteristics of chemical enterprises, monitors gas leakage concentration in all directions, and prevents disasters and accidents.
Safety production is the core issue of chemical enterprises. Chicheng Electric’s chemical industry system solution, through the construction of a new monitoring platform of “Industrial Internet + Safety Production”, uses hardware and software systems to build a solid barrier for the safe development of chemical industry and protect the gas environment safety of the chemical industry!
