On the morning of June 15th, according to the Propaganda Department of the Wenling Municipal Party Committee, the explosive vehicle was a liquefied petroleum gas tanker with a license plate of Zhejiang CM9535. It drove from Ningbo to Wenzhou, and reached the G15 Shenhai Expressway towards Fujian. The middle of the lower ramp of the Wenling West exit occurred. A total of 20 people were killed in the accident, including 24 people with serious injuries and stable vital signs. The whereabouts of the two drivers remain unknown, and 300 villagers are transferred.
Tank truck overloaded!
LPG tank trucks are mobile pressure vessels that store and transport liquid petroleum gas. Because LPG is flammable and explosive, at least 15% of the space must be reserved for tank trucks equipped with LPG. The tanker of this accident was filled in the morning, and its filling volume exceeded 90%. At noon, the temperature rises, direct sunlight hits the road, the saturated vapor pressure in the tank rises, and the expanding liquefied petroleum gas bursts the tank. According to calculations, the liquefied petroleum gas running out of the tank truck is more than 10,000 cubic meters, and then the explosive gas mixture formed is hundreds of thousands of cubic meters. Its explosive power is equivalent to more than 100 tons of TNT explosive.

The fourth is to increase law enforcement management of road traffic and pavement. It is necessary to give full play to the advantages of Shanxi public security big data, improve the data sharing mechanism of hazardous chemical, hazardous explosive production and use, transportation enterprises and practitioners, transportation vehicles, etc. in the province and often coming to our province, and incorporate it into the platform management to fully gather , Master all kinds of data information throughout. Focus on hazardous chemicals, dangerous explosives transport vehicles, heavy goods vehicles, tourist chartered vehicles, passenger shuttle buses, etc., and strictly investigate and deal with traffic violations and crimes such as speeding, fatigue driving, overcrowding, drunk driving, etc., especially for traffic violations. Enterprises with a lot of accidents should undergo strict audits. It is necessary to strictly regulate the standards of practice, and those who have a history of drug abuse, history of drunk driving, serious traffic violations, and other criminal convictions must not be allowed to practice. At the same time, do a good job in service, put management in service, and promote the implementation of corporate responsibility for production safety.
Fifth, strengthen the control of dangerous-prone and dangerous explosives accident-prone sections. Comprehensively investigate hidden safety hazards on the routes and sections where dangerous and explosive vehicles are concentrated. Departments at all levels should immediately and in-depth and carefully examine the signs and markings of key routes and road sections within the jurisdiction, improve road safety infrastructure, and strengthen the management and control of special road sections such as tunnels, long downhill slopes, sharp bends, steep slopes, ramps, etc. Guide dangerous and explosive vehicles to drive safely.
The sixth is to strengthen the propaganda of dangerous vehicles and dangerous explosives. Make full use of channels such as radio, television, newspapers, "two micro-ends", vibrato, etc. to carry out massive publicity work to create a strong atmosphere and strong momentum.

Eighth, we must combine the current eight projects of “reduction control” to strengthen the management of hazardous chemicals, explosives and summer road traffic safety, strengthen emergency drills, and strengthen severe traffic such as fatigue driving and drunk driving. The intensity of investigation and punishment of illegal acts ensures that the road traffic safety situation in our province is stable.
Some chemical prices or callback
The Wenling incident once again strengthened the inspection of the entire hazardous chemical industry operation and road transportation. It is expected that the safety rectification of chemical companies in various regions will continue to upgrade.
According to industry insiders, as the relevant departments strengthen the management of the transportation of dangerous goods, the transportation of dangerous goods after the accident may adopt a strategy of peak-to-peak travel. Short-term logistics may have some congestion, or further aggravate the pressure on the logistics link. Due to the increase in responsibility and security inspection, the transportation cycle and process may be increased, resulting in increased transportation costs. In addition, chemical inventory costs may be further increased. This event will have a greater impact on LPG, methanol and styrene in bulk markets. On the disk, under the dual background of macro risk and industry risk investigation, it may lead to a correction in commodity prices.
