On March 1, 2021, the "Amendment to the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China (11)" was officially implemented.

After Article 134 of the original Criminal Law, a "crime of dangerous work" was added. This means that companies must attach great importance to safety in production, otherwise they may be held criminally responsible even if there is no production safety accident! Below, let us review such cases.

Case review one

A few days ago, the Xiaoshan District Bureau of the Hangzhou Public Security Bureau placed criminal suspect Yu XX in criminal detention on suspicion of dangerous work. On the morning of March 8, 2021, law enforcement officers of Hangzhou Xiaoshan Emergency Management Bureau conducted law enforcement inspections on Zhejiang Huazhe Holding Group Co., Ltd. During the inspection, it was discovered that a large number of hazardous chemicals were piled up in a warehouse to the east of the plant's segment workshop. After an on-site inventory, there were 176 bottles full of carbon dioxide, oxygen, acetylene, mixed gas, nitrogen and other gas cylinders. What is even more frightening is that the warehouse is set up next to the company's employee dormitory building. There are dozens of workers living in the dormitory building. Once an explosion occurs, the consequences will be disastrous.

Upon on-site inquiry, it was learned that the above-mentioned gas cylinders belonged to Hangzhou Xiaoshan Yuhanlin Gas Co., Ltd., and the warehouse was used to store and operate hazardous chemicals. However, after inspection by law enforcement officers, Hangzhou Xiaoshan Yuhanlin Gas Co., Ltd. has not obtained a license to operate hazardous chemicals with storage facilities, and the warehouse does not have the safety conditions for storing hazardous chemicals. Law enforcement officers immediately issued a decision on on-site handling measures in accordance with the law, ordering the company to immediately stop storing hazardous chemicals and seize the gas cylinders on-site.
Subsequently, on the evening of March 9, the Xiaoshan District Public Security Bureau sub-bureau detained the suspect Yu Mo for the crime of dangerous work.

Case review two

On February 26, during a large-scale inspection and rectification operation by the public security organs of Boxing County, Binzhou City, a small fuel dispenser and other refueling equipment were found in a courtyard, and an underground oil storage tank was found on the north side of the fuel dispenser. The police handling the case arrested the criminal suspect Li through further investigations and visits.
After interrogation, since December 2020, Li has purchased small refueling machines, iron tanks and other refueling equipment without any qualifications, and buried the iron tanks underground to the east of the yard to store gasoline, and illegally set up points to refuel foreign vehicles. Li confessed to the facts of his crime.

On March 4, Li was criminally detained by the Boxing County Public Security Bureau on suspicion of dangerous operation. This is the first dangerous operation case investigated by the Boxing County Public Security Bureau of Binzhou City, Shandong Province. It should also be from the Criminal Law of March 1st. Since the implementation of the Eleventh Amendment, Shandong's first crime involving dangerous operations.

The production safety of hazardous chemicals storage is of great significance to the long-term stability of the country and the steady development of the national economy. At present, hazardous chemicals in the storage area of ​​hazardous chemicals have many types, large volumes, instability and volatility. In addition, the storage area is a confined space, which is prone to exceed the concentration of dangerous gases, causing explosions and personnel poisoning, etc. The possibility of accidents is greater.

In order to thoroughly implement the spirit of General Secretary Jinping’s important instructions on safe production and strengthen the technical level and preventive measures of safe production supervision, the storage industry urgently needs to use advanced technologies such as laser, 5G and big data to establish a comprehensive, all-round and systematic The safety monitoring system realizes the precise, reliable and intelligent safety monitoring of Class A hazardous chemicals storage, effectively curbing the occurrence of major accidents.

As a leader in the field of laser monitoring technology research and production, Hanhai Opto-electronic laser products are industrialized products of the Chinese Academy of Sciences' national major scientific research achievements. The technology is "domestic and internationally advanced". It has comprehensive advantages in many aspects and can satisfy the storage of hazardous chemicals to the greatest extent. Monitoring requirements.

Compared with traditional hazardous gas monitoring methods, the main advantages of laser gas detection technology and products are: using laser as the working principle to achieve large-scale, regional, active, high-sensitivity monitoring, and anti-electromagnetic interference; to achieve specific monitoring points without power supply It works without oxygen for chemical reaction, and it can ensure intrinsic safety under normal monitoring under high altitude hypoxic environment. The existing technology has been substantially improved in terms of monitoring accuracy, response speed, operation and maintenance costs, ease of use, and ultra-long service life. Realize the advantages of maintenance-free monitoring equipment, no calibration, simple operation, etc., comprehensively reduce costs and improve economic performance.
