Abstract

Abstract: Against a bulk cargo ship fatal explosion accident, the fire scene investigation was carried out. By means of X-Ray Powder Diffractometer(XRD), Handheld X-ray fluorescence alloy composition analyzer (XRF), combining with the theory of electrochemical and biological chemistry knowledge, the mechanism of explosion was explored, and the explosion reason of the accident was confirmed. At the same time, the fire scene investigation suggestions of ship explosion accident and the bulk cargo ship safety management countermeasures were put forward.
