In a large city with a huge population, there is a sewage treatment facility for every apartment or industrial complex. Recently, sewage and wastewater are treated together with stronger chemicals and methods. As a result, gas poisoning accidents often occur in wastewater treatment plants. What kind of toxic gas causes accidents at water treatment facilities?
Generally, hydrogen sulfide(H2S) is generated in excess in the sewage treatment facilities. Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic, colorless gas that smells like rotten eggs, and is frequently generated in large quantities.
Time-weighted average (TWA) exposure standards indicate that safe levels of hydrogen sulfide gas concentrations should not exceed 10 ppm to avoid affecting workers 8 hours a day in hazardous work environments. Exceeding this can cause severe eye pain, and inhalation can paralyze the central nervous system or cause death by suffocation.
How to manage such a hazardous work environment where hydrogen sulfide, a toxic gas corrosive and dangerous to workers, is generated? We recommend Radionode’s RN400-T2GS product
- RN400-T2GS guarantees the precision of H2S density, and you can receive the real-time notification about high-concentration levels
- Check the gas concentration change trend and current concentration only by scanning the QR code, and decide whether to enter the interior
- It is designed to be IP65 waterproof and dustproof
- Measurement values are transmitted to the destination server via Wi-Fi
- In the event of a wireless communication failure, the measured data is stored in internal memory and sent back to the cloud when the Internet is available.
- The initial installation is very simple and the deployment cost is low.
From 2022, the Korean government has implemented the Act on Punishment of Serious Accidents in Workplaces. In case of violating the safety and health measures resulting in personal accident such as death it is a serious crime punishable by the law and the person in charge is subject to imprisonment or a fine of not more than 4.5 million dollars.
