More dangerous to transport propene by tanker than pipeline: CPDC更危險的油輪比管道輸送丙烯:CPDC

 


China Petrochemical Development Corp. (CPDC), which has been working to remove propene remaining in a pipeline leading to its plant in Kaohsiung's Dashe District, said it would be more pragmatic to implement stricter regulations and management of the existing petrochemical pipelines rather than changing to road transport to move propene.

Some residents in Kaohsiung have called for the pipelines to be removed from the city following the fatal blasts that began July 31.


TAIPEI -- A petrochemical company said Monday that it would be more dangerous to transport propene, a petrochemical raw material, via tankers rather than underground pipes, in response to calls from residents in the southern city of Kaohsiung after last week's deadly explosions that are believed to have been caused by a propene pipeline leak.
 

The July 31 blasts were triggered by a leak of between four and 10 tons of propene that caused serious damage to roads and hundreds of casualties, it said.

Each tanker can carry 18-20 tons of propene, which would cause even more serious damage in the event of an accident, it added.

It would involve higher risks if each petrochemical firm in Kaohsiung began using tankers to transport the material, the company said.

Stricter management and checks to monitor the pipelines are the most feasible options, it added.

The explosions occurred between 11 p.m. and midnight July 31 in Kaohsiung's Cianjhen and Lingya districts, killing at least 28 people, injuring 305 and leaving two missing, according to official statistics as of Monday morning.

The disaster is believed to have been caused by a leak in an underground propene pipeline used by LCY Chemical Corp.

An investigation into the blasts is ongoing.

更危險的油輪比管道輸送丙烯:CPDC

台北 - 某石化公司週一表示,這將是更危險的運輸丙烯,石化原料,通過油輪,而不是地下管道,為應對被認為在南部城市高雄上週的致命爆炸後,居民來電已經造成的丙烯管道洩漏。

在高雄有居民呼籲管道從下面開始7月31日的致命爆炸的城市中刪除。

中國石油化學工業開發公司(CPDC),它一直在努力去除殘留丙烯的管道,導致其在高雄大社廠區,表示將更加務實,以實施更嚴格的規定現有石油化工管道的管理,而不是要改變公路運輸移動丙烯。

7月31日爆炸是由間4,10噸丙烯造成道路和數百人傷亡的嚴重損壞洩漏引發的,它說。

每個加油機可攜帶18〜20萬噸丙烯,這將導致在發生事故的情況下更為嚴重的傷害,它補充說。

它會涉及較高風險,如果在高雄各石化企業開始利用油輪來運輸材料,該公司表示。

嚴格的管理和檢查監督的管道是最可行的方案,它補充說。

晚上11時至凌​​晨7月31日在高雄前鎮及苓雅區之間發生爆炸,造成至少28人,炸傷305,留下兩人失踪,據週一上午的官方統計數據。

這場災難被認為已經在使用李長榮化學公司的地下丙烯管道造成洩漏

調查爆炸發生正在進行中。
