Abstract

Hardware -- Power and energy -- Impact on the environment

Hardware -- Power and energy -- Thermal issues -- Temperature monitoring

Bangladesh is a developing country as recognized by the United Nations. The development of industries is one of the main rationales behind this huge achievement. But the safety measures and precautionary systems for industrial hazard management is nowhere to be improved in Bangladesh. Boiler explosion has been a major setback and has lashed the industry for years due to various reasons including ignorance of officials, lack of awareness and sometimes even due to lack of proper facilities. As a matter of fact, the accountability in this sector is thin and has been worsening as time elapses. This paper looks into the cases and analyzes the reason behind the incidents that have taken place in the history of boiler explosion. After much scrutiny, this paper deciphers the ignored parameters that have led to such menaces and thus points out measures to help create awareness and prevent the cases of boiler explosion and loss of lives and property.
