Eight characteristics of fire hazards

Firefighting work is a very social work. Fire hazards threaten the development of our economy and the safety of people's lives and property at any time and place. "Hidden dangers are in the fire, prevention is better than disaster relief, and responsibility is more important than Taishan" is Comrade Jiang Zemin's three words on how to do a good job in fire protection. The existence of hidden dangers will inevitably lead to the occurrence of accidents, and correctly understanding the characteristics of hidden dangers, familiarizing with and mastering the causes of hidden dangers, and timely researching and rectifying hidden dangers are an important link in economic construction system engineering.
Fire hazards in firefighting work refer to violations of fire laws and regulations, resulting in the possibility of fire or certain harmful consequences in the event of a fire. What characteristics does it have?

1. Concealment. The hidden danger is a hidden evil. It has the characteristics of concealment, hiding and lurking. It is a disaster that cannot be seen for a moment. It shows a state of static and invariance under a certain time, a certain range, and certain conditions, which often makes some people unable to see, be aware of, or feel the existence of it for a while. The maturity of objective conditions has gradually caused hidden dangers to form disasters. For example, the fire broke out in the Hangzhou Tianyuanyuan shopping mall on January 30, 1994. The cause of the fire was concealed in the ceiling of the No. 6 furniture room on the third floor of the mall. The power cord of the ceiling lamp caused a short-circuit fire, and the bead was splashed in the lower part. The fire caused by the flammable material on the mattress and spread.

2. Dangerous. Hidden dangers are a harbinger of accidents, and accidents are the inevitable result of the existence and development of hidden dangers. Many fire hazards are difficult to completely eliminate, and malignant fires can happen at any time. The lessons of countless blood have repeatedly proved this. On December 25, 2000, a fire broke out in the Dongdu Commercial Building in Luoyang City, Henan Province, causing 309 deaths. The reason was caused by four unlicensed welding welders illegally welding... Some of the major accidents in China showed: a cigarette butt Lights, a bead, a violation, and a small negligence can cause fire hazards.

3. Sudden. Everything has a quantitative change to a qualitative change, a process of gradual change to a mutation. Hidden dangers are no exception. It changes from small to large, and it is a big problem. A few years ago, a fire and explosion accident occurred in the Qingshuihe warehouse of Shenzhen Anshi dangerous goods storage and transportation company in Guangdong Province, killing 18 people and injuring 873 people, causing huge economic losses. The Qingshuihe warehouse was originally a dry goods warehouse, which stores general production and living items, warehouse structure, fire separation, water source layout, roads, etc., and then changed to store flammable and explosive chemicals, no matter from storage of dangerous goods. The fire protection level of the warehouse, the fire separation distance between the library and the warehouse, the setting of the fire hydrant and the water consumption are all inconsistent with the requirements of the fire protection regulations. There are serious fire hazards, and in the process of storage, serious violations of relevant national regulations will be Chemical goods with conflicting properties and different fire-fighting methods are mixed in a warehouse, which further causes hidden dangers to change from quantitative to qualitative, and changes from small to large, eventually causing a major fire and explosion accident that shocks the whole country. Hidden dangers are sudden disasters, which are the majority in chemical companies and must be highly valued.

4. Randomness. As the saying goes: "Safety comes from long-term vigilance, and accidents come from instant paralysis." The occurrence of hidden dangers and the scourge of disasters are directly dependent on the lack of people's fire-fighting awareness and lack of fire-fighting knowledge, the lack of fire-fighting awareness and the lack of responsibility. They are complementary, and they inevitably lead to arbitrariness in daily work. On March 7, 1986, a fire broke out in the finished product warehouse on the third floor of Hangzhou Yanqiao Dewatering Plant. After more than five hours of fighting, the fire was extinguished. The fire burned 180 square meters of warehouses, 50 tons of ginger slices, 5 tons of mushroom slices, and direct economic losses of 556,600 yuan. The cause of the fire was that the warehouse clerk violated the fire management regulations. After the cotton wire was burned by the scissors in the warehouse, the residual fire was not completely extinguished, and the fire caused the fire along the cotton line. The arbitrariness of hidden dangers is determined by the subjective will of the people, and most of these hidden dangers will cause harm in a short time.

5. Repeatability. After a fire accident, the repetitive nature of the fire accident is inevitable (especially for chemical companies) because it is not strictly handled according to the principle of “three nos.”. As long as the production methods, production conditions, production tools, production environment and other factors of the enterprise have not changed, the same hidden dangers will be repeated. The key question is how to learn lessons after the accident, improve measures, rectify hidden dangers, and adopt scientific and reasonable management methods. Advanced technical equipment to prevent the recurrence of hidden dangers.

6. Seasonal. There are quite a few hidden dangers with obvious seasonal characteristics that change with the seasons. In the summer, due to the hot weather, high temperature and high lightning, it is easy to make the flammable and combustible materials cause fire due to the high temperature or lightning strikes. In winter, the wind will be dry, the electricity will increase, and people's activities will decrease. It is easy to cause fires that are inadvertently used by electricity, and the wind is dry and heavy, people's activities are reduced, and it is impossible to find the initial fire in time, which is very likely to cause heavy and extraordinarily large fires.

7. Causality. Hidden dangers are caused by open flames, which is the causal relationship between fire hazards and fires. The objective law of firefighting work tells us that today's fire hazard is likely to be a fire tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and today's fire is a fire hazard yesterday. The hidden danger is the cause, the fire is the fruit, and the hidden danger is the prelude of the fire. As the saying goes, "There are certain factors, there must be a cause." In the production and management process of each unit, everyone's words and deeds will work on the safety management of enterprises. Producing different effects, especially the different attitudes of unit leaders on hidden dangers, often leads to completely different results in fire safety work. "Hidden" and "Ming" are dialectical unity. Fire accidents can only be avoided if the hidden dangers are discovered and eliminated in a timely manner.

8. Timeliness. The purpose of fire inspection is to identify and eliminate fire hazards. However, the elimination of fire hazards must also pay attention to timeliness. In the past few years, several fire accidents occurred in our province. Before the fire broke out, the local fire supervision department issued a notice of rectification of fire hazards repeatedly. This was because the responsible department did not implement the rectification in a timely and effective manner, resulting in casualties and property losses. The lessons are profound. To this end, rectification of fire hazards must pay attention to timeliness. If some rectifications are difficult, and the unit is indeed unable to solve the problem, it should take practical precautionary measures before rectification.

Fire prevention must become the basis and premise of fire protection work, and the central link and main content of fire prevention is how to eliminate fire hazards through the setting and implementation of various systems. It is impossible for a company or a unit to have no fire hazard or no fire hazard. It is only a difference between large and small, large and small. Therefore, the whole society, especially the leading cadres at all levels, must establish an ideology of preventing problems before they occur. It can be said that eliminating hidden dangers is the best defense. We should profoundly understand and grasp the law of the generation and development of hidden dangers, and make the fire protection work better and better.
