Risk Evolution Mechanism and Safety Control of Microchemical Processes

Dongmao Yan, Deputy Dean, Institute of Strategic Materials and Components, Shenyang University of Chemical Technology

Microchemical technology has achieved industrial application in the safe production of hazardous chemicals. In the scale-up process, however, high-intensity operating conditions adopted to boost production capacity will drive the system away from its ideal state, thereby inducing potential new safety hazards. This presentation elaborates on the fundamental principles of microchemical engineering and typical hazardous reactions. It analyzes the evolution characteristics of risks under intensive operation, clarifies the instability mechanism, and explores targeted regulation strategies. The concept of "Dynamic Safety Boundary" is further proposed. It aims to advance microchemical technology from simple usability toward high reliability and controllability, and provides theoretical basis and technical support for risk prevention and control in practical industrial deployment.
