Research Content & Progress:
To meet the requirement on the control of the major environmental pollution incidents in China, the project is aimed at the development of general technologies for the risk warning of major environmental pollution incidents, and the formation of the integrated technical system that could be used in the risk warning of chemical industrial parks, megacities and drinking water resources. Based on the selection of typical pollutants involved in the pollution incidents, physical models of multimedia transformation and transportation of typical pollutants in water and soil are established to simulate their environmental processes and to estimate related parameters. Digital models incorporated with 3S technology are developed for fast and accurate risk prediction and warning. The overall risk assessment including vulnerability assessment, risk characterization, post accident assessment, and effectiveness assessment of emergency measurements are investigated, and the selection technology for the key nodes in risk control is proposed. The indicators and criteria appropriate for risk warning and prediction are constructed.
