Near the end of the year, as the chief engineer of Sinochem Shenyang Chemical Research Institute, Cheng Chunsheng is busy with several major projects: building the key Laboratory of Hazardous chemical Safety Risk warning and intelligent control technology of the Department of Emergency Management, building the Sinochem Chemical Safety Technology Innovation Center, and leading the formulation of national standards for chemical safety... Although these projects may sound obscure, they are closely related to the clothing, food, housing and transportation of ordinary people.
In 1979, Cheng Chunsheng, who had outstanding achievements in chemistry, was promoted to Sun Yat-sen University, which opened her insoluble relationship with the chemical industry. At that time, China's chemical industry was still relatively backward. Taking pesticides as an example, most important pesticides are produced by importing or imitating foreign processes, with low benefits and many hidden dangers.
How to close the gap? In order to find out more safe and environmentally friendly chemical process technology path, Cheng Chunsheng "white and black" busy: soaking in the laboratory during the day to do experiments, record data, find problems; In the library at night, since the founding of the American Chemical Abstracts in 1907, I began to sort out English publications and dig technical routes and clues... The technological difficulties of a large number of important products have been overcome.
However, the safety of chemical production has always haunted Cheng Chunsheng. In 2005, Cheng Chunsheng decided to get involved in the chemical reaction risk research field and established a reaction risk research platform with Chinese independent intellectual property rights.
Hard work pays off to those who wait. Since 2017, the chemical reaction safety risk assessment technology developed by Cheng Chunsheng and his team has been promoted and applied in the fine chemical industry across the country, and the product yield, "three wastes" emission, and million-hour injury rate of related enterprises have reached the international advanced level.
