Abstract
Purpose: In this study, the characteristics of hazardous chemical transport vehicle accidents during the last six years from 2014 to 2019 was analyzed. This study is to prevent chemical transport accidents. Method: Using statistics from the Ministry of Environment, chemical transport vehicle accidents were classified into accident type, accident cause and vehicle type. Result: Of the total 506 cases chemical accidents, 105 cases were caused by transport vehicle. More than 20 percent of total accidents were reported. Most of the accidents were caused by spill・leak. The main causes of the accident were traffic accidents(49 cases) and management negligence(29 cases). This was more than 74% of all transport vehicle accidents. By vehicle type, 57 cases(54%) were most common in tank lorries, followed by trucks (39 cases, 37%) and trailers (9 cases, 9%). Conclusion: In order to prevent accident of transport vehicle, thorough inspection of the transport vehicle is required and safe operation of the driver. In addition, the government needs to expand real-time monitoring of transport vehicles and comprehensively manage different systems by the relevant ministries.
연구목적: 본 연구에서는 2014년부터 2019년까지 최근 6년간 발생한 화학사고 중 유해화학물질 운송차량사고의 특성을 분석하여, 운송과정에서 발생하는 화학사고를 예방하고자 하였다. 연구방법: 환경부 화학물질종합정보시스템의 통계자료를 활용하여, 운송차량에 의한 화학사고 사고유형, 사고원인, 차량종류로 나누어 조사하였다. 연구결과: 총 506건의 화학사고 중 운송차량에 의한 사고는 105건으로 조사되었으며, 전체 사고의 20% 이상 상회하는 수치를 보였다. 사고유형은 유・누출에 의한 사고가 대부분이었으며, 사고 주요 원인으로는 교통사고와 차량관리소홀이 각각 49건, 29건으로 전체 운송차량 사고의 74%이상으로 나타났다. 차량유형별로는 탱크로리(57건, 54%)에서 가장 많이 발생하였으며, 화물트럭(39건, 37%), 트레일러(9건, 9%) 순으로 빈번하게 발생하였다. 결론: 운송차량 사고의 예방을 위해서는 운송차량의 철저한 점검 및 운전자의 안전운행이 요구된다. 또한 정부는 운송차량의 실시간 모니터링을 확대하고, 소관 부처별로 상이한 제도를 통합적으로 관리할 필요성이 있다.
