Introducing a case of hydrogen sulfide poisoning that occurred during sludge removal work at a thermal power plant.
While the operator was discharging sludge in the circulating water receiving tank, they inhaled hydrogen sulfide generated from the sludge, suddenly lost consciousness, and collapsed. A worker who entered the tank to rescue them also lost consciousness and collapsed. Workers equipped with oxygen tanks and respirators rushed in, entered the tank, and rescued the two individuals. When measuring the hydrogen sulfide concentration at the location measured before the work, it was found to be over 100 ppm. 【Suggestions】 ■ Use gas detectors to confirm the effectiveness of ventilation ■ Work while confirming safety with portable gas monitors *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
