Cost Calculation of Hazardous Chemical Accidents
Risks derived from hazardous chemical accidents have a deeper impact than the sole damage suffered by the affected zone and its population.Hazardous chemical accidents not only result in loss of lives,goods and infrastructure,but also deteriorate the natural environment.The enormous economic losses suffered by public institutions,businesses and individuals present many complex emergency management challenges.While significant improvement in cost calculation has been noted in recent years,the current literature reports on a series of efforts aimed to calculate losses by utilizing one-dimensional calculation element,yet no two-dimensional element system exits.This paper establishes two-dimensional element system on cost calculation of hazardous chemical accidents from the view of bearer and economic characteristics of the loss.Calculation methods of each element are described and applied to a case.In this presentation,two-dimensional element system which distinguishes economic losses suffered by the government,the company and the individual can also solve the double-counting problem of the loss.It is suggested that,attention on cost calculation study of hazardous chemical accidents from the government perspective can reveal the problem that large hidden and long-term losses are taken by the government,while enterprises pay for the low compensation.This method can help government develop and improve relevant laws and regulations and provide the scientific basis for dealing with accidents.
