Abstract

안전성 향상을 위한 노력에도 불구하고 연구실험실에서의 화재, 폭발 등 각종 사고가 지속되고 있으며, 이에 따른 인명 및 재산 손실 또한 상당한 수준에 이르고 있다. 실험실 사고는 비슷한 유형의 사고가 주기적으로 반복되는 특성을 가지고 있으며, 안전성 향상을 위한 예방적 차원의 안전관리 체계가 절실하게 요구된다. 연구실험실 종사자들은 앞으로 국가의 과학기술 발전에 이바지할 젊은 과학자들로서 국가적 관점에서 상당한 손실이 아닐 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 과거의 사고 및 연구실 안전관리에 대한 연구의 분석결과를 기반으로 연구실험실에 상존하는 잠재적 위험성 저감 및 안전성 향상을 위해 요구되는 안전관리 중점요소들을 파악하였다. 궁극적으로 근본적인 실험실 안전성 향상을 위해 실험실 안전관리 매뉴얼, 실험실과 관련한 관리 시스템, 교육관리 시스템, 화학물질관리 시스템 및 실험실 자체안전점검 시스템으로 이루어진 화학 및 화학공학 실험실에 적합한 실험실 안전관리 시스템을 제안하여 실험실의 안전성 향상을 꾀하고자 하였다.

There are many accidents such as fire and explosion in laboratories that have caused a great loss to lives and property in spite of the effort to the enhancement of laboratory safety level for years. Development of laboratory safety management system is a necessary to improve safety level because the accidents of similar types have periodically occurred in laboratories. The laboratory safety management system may reduce many accidents and a serious loss in laboratory. In this study, we summarized major items for a risk management and safety improvement based on the analysis results of various accidents in the laboratories. And then the laboratory safety management system was developed containing a laboratory safety management manual, a laboratory management system, a education management system, a MSDS (material safety data sheet) management system and a laboratory safety audit system. It may have a potential application for the laboratory safety management in the chemical laboratories.
