Zusammenfassung |
After an earthquake, the fire risk of petrochemical enterprises is higher
than that of other enterprises as it involves production processes with
inflammable and explosive characteristics. Using Chinese petrochemical
enterprises as the research object, this paper uses a literature review and
case summaries to study, amongst others, the classification of petrochemical
enterprises, the proportion of daily fires, and fire loss ratio. This paper
builds a fire following an earthquake risk assessment model of petrochemical
enterprises based on a previous earthquake fire hazard model, and the
earthquake loss prediction assessment method, calculates the expected loss
of the fire following an earthquake in various counties and draws a risk map.
Moreover, this research identifies high-risk areas, concentrating on the
Beijing–Tianjin–Tangshan region, and Shandong, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang
provinces. Differences in enterprise type produce different levels and
distribution of petrochemical enterprise earthquake fire risk. Furthermore,
areas at high risk of post-earthquake fires and with low levels of seismic
fortification require extra attention to ensure appropriate mechanisms are
in place. |
