Deficiencies and developing requirements of monitoring technology for chemical defense summarizing from “Tianjin Port 8·12 Explosion Accident”: A discussion / 国际药学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

“Tianjin Port 8·12 Catastrophic Explosion Accident” is making us alert. And how to learn lessons from the accident, how to form effective prevention and control strategies, which make us much ponder over. Based on summarizing the experiences of the previous chemical emergencies, from the aspects of monitoring and early warning, disaster assessment, on-site detection, and remote telemetry, this paper expounds the importance of the related mechanism and the hardware construction. Then the serious “bottleneck” in the construction of Chinese chemical defense was pointed out as well as introducing the new development direction of foreign military monitoring and detecting equipments. Our aim is attracting much attention of peers within the discipline, so as to effectively enhance the abilities of monitoring and early warning and emergency handling for chemical defense in China.
