Abstract

Nitric acid is classified as dangerous substances under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, accident preparation substances and toxic substances under the Chemical Management Act, and sixth-class dangerous substances and oxidative liquids under the Dangerous Goods Safety Management Act. Nitric acid substances cause very intense chemical reactions with metals, and steam inhalation alone can cause serious damage to the human lungs, so they should be handled very carefully. Nitric acid accidents occur at an average of more than 11% per year in all chemical accidents, and the causes of accidents occur due to non-compliance with safety standards, facility defects, and transportation accidents. In the problem of accident occurrence, improvement measures were studied in four stages: prevention, preparation, response, and recovery.
