[세종=뉴스핌] Reporter Jeong Seong-hoon = Korea Gas Safety Corporation is promoting four innovation strategies including accident reduction innovation and hydrogen safety innovation.
On the 30th, Korea Gas Safety Corporation established a new CEO’s management policy (Back to the Basic), the direction of gas safety management in the post-corona era, and the’New Normal Gas Safety Innovation’, which is the main focus of leading hydrogen safety. (2021~2023) It has been announced that it will be implemented. This is a follow-up to the’Safety Management Innovation Plan’ implemented from 2018 to 2020.

‘New Normal Gas Safety Innovation’ is the introduction of prevention measures, butane cans, CO poisoning accident prevention measures, and smart, non-face-to-face inspections, focusing on four innovation strategies: ▲ accident reduction innovation ▲ new normal innovation ▲ hydrogen safety innovation ▲ win-win and trust innovation. , Big data-based accident prediction, fulfillment of responsibility for safety management for hydrogen charging and products, and technical support for localization of gas products are composed of 53 projects.
In particular, the KTO is planning to fundamentally prevent accidents inadequate preventive measures by developing and distributing the’Fusecock Overflow Blocking Safety Mechanism’ to dramatically reduce human casualties. In addition, while promoting the expansion of the distribution of safety devices for butane cans, the company plans to further strengthen its publicity and preventive checks for carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning accidents. In addition, in order to eliminate the blind spot for safety management, a procedure for preventing accidents with careless work will be prepared and distributed, and the small storage tank will be thoroughly managed for omission of re-inspection and inspection of containers.
In addition, it plans to expand non-face-to-face inspections such as smart inspection, video inspection, and non-face-to-face product certification inspection in preparation for post coronavirus, and develop and distribute’real-time risk prediction technology based on the movement of gas and chemical facilities workers’ using smart technology. In addition, it will introduce a big data-based real-time risk prediction and artificial intelligence (AI) accident management system, and provide safety management education services using virtual reality (VR) contents.
To lay the foundation for 100% hydrogen safety ▲Complete safety management standards for hydrogen fuel use facilities and hydrogen products ▲Complete safety management standards for all cycles of liquefied hydrogen ▲Free rental of inspection equipment for hydrogen car charging stations ▲Expanding of certified products for hydrogen car parts, etc. do.
To establish a reliable gas safety system for the public ▲Regularization of safety inspection and facility improvement projects for facilities using LPG containers and underprivileged furniture in islands ▲Promote win-win cooperation with multicultural families and vulnerable groups ▲Establish an LP gas safety management agency system ▲Manufacturers for localization of gas products Technical support ▲ Improvement of inspection standards for gas supply facilities and realization of safety standards ▲ Expansion of the convenience of issuing inspection certificates and activation of the inspection exemption system will also be promoted.
Hae-jong Lim, President of Korea Gas Safety Corporation, said, “All executives and employees will successfully promote the safety innovation established this time with all their utmost power,” and said, “In 2023, when the new normal safety management innovation is successfully completed, the gas accident index 3.62 (gas per million “Achievement of accident damage), establishment of smart and IT-based non-face-to-face untact gas safety management, and 100% implementation of the New Deal hydrogen safety management policy will have positive effects.”
