As the Kaohsiung semiconductor industry cluster takes shape, the transportation safety of toxic chemicals has become the focus of disaster prevention. The Kaohsiung City Environmental Protection Bureau held a toxic chemical disaster response drill today (13th) at the Nanke Kaohsiung Park, realistically simulating the leakage of a chlorine tanker, and mobilized a total of 13 units from the public and private sectors to conduct actual drills to fully protect the safety of the technological town and surrounding residents.
The drill simulated a tank truck carrying chlorine gas preparing to enter the factory. The guard noticed pungent "yellow-green smoke" coming from the roof of the truck and immediately issued a warning signal. The driver got out of the car to check but accidentally inhaled the poisonous gas and became uncomfortable. The factory immediately activated the notification mechanism. Firefighters rushed to the scene after receiving the report, sprayed "fire water mist" to suppress the spread of poisonous gas, and rescued the injured to the hospital.
In order to prevent poisonous gas from spreading to the surrounding areas, the Environmental Protection Bureau's inspection team was stationed to command, dispatching air pollution response vehicles and connecting micro sensors in series to monitor the downwind areas for real-time monitoring of empty products. Each department within the Bureau also formed a logistics team to practice waste cleanup and environmental restoration. In addition, the exercise also incorporated community disaster prevention, testing residents' preventive sheltering in place and joint prevention notifications in neighboring areas.
This drill has a large lineup, gathering 4 district offices including the Environmental Protection Bureau, Fire Bureau, Second Security Corps, Nanke Administration Bureau, and Luzhu, as well as 13 units including Winbond, Innolux, Taiwan Chi-Chlor, Taiwan Sefus, Integra, Changxing Materials, and Jingwei Petrochemical, and is supported by a professional technical team from the Ministry of Environment.
The Environmental Protection Bureau emphasized that Kaohsiung's industrial transformation is accelerating. Strengthening regional joint defense through "real-person, physical, on-site" drills can control disasters immediately when accidents occur and build the most solid safety defense line.
