A new approach for explosion accident prevention in chemical research laboratories at universities
The study analyzed two explosion accidents in university chemistry labs and found common contributing factors related to lack of standard operating procedures, insufficient safety awareness, poor communication, and ineffective safety management systems. It proposes using the SHEL model (Software, Hardware, Environment, Liveware) for accident investigation and analysis in university labs to identify systemic issues and improve safety practices by addressing both local workplace factors and organizational factors.
