However, their susceptibility to thermal runaway poses significant risks of fire and explosion, making safety a critical concern. To address this challenge, smoke detectors are commonly employed in BESS containers for early warning, which need to be connected via cables/lines for power and signal transmission. Nevertheless, the current arrangement of smoke detection systems predominantly relies on semi-quantitative experience and regulations, lacking a scientifically rational design methodology. This may lead to a smoke detection system with unsatisfied detection sensitivity or unnecessary wires. To overcome this limitation, an optimized layout design approach for smoke detection systems based on the black-winged kite algorithm (BKA) is proposed, aiming to minimize wiring length while fulfilling system response time requirements. First, a simulation model of the BESS container is established using fire dynamics simulator (FDS), and the smoke detector's obscuration rate over time is obtained. Second, an optimization model is constructed to achieve the technical and economic targets, which is reducing the wire length while guaranteeing the detection system's sensitivity. The BKA is utilized to derive the optimal smoke detector arrangement. Finally, the robustness of the detection system is evaluated based on the cumulative failure probability of detectors. Case studies demonstrate that, compared to traditional optimization algorithms, the BKA exhibits significant advantages in convergence speed and accuracy. The proposed method ensures that the system can reliably trigger an alarm within 10 s during a thermal runaway fire in any battery cabinet with the minimum number of detectors. The robustness analysis results confirm that even under detector failure conditions, the system can still maintain reliable alarm performance within 10 s. The proposed smoke detector layout design approach reduces installation costs by 33.39 % compared to an additional redundant detector. This study provides theoretical support and practical references for the scientific design of fire detection systems in BESS containers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16291,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Loss Prevention in The Process Industries","volume":"100 ","pages":"Article 105879"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145747528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Minimum Ignition Temperature (MIT), as a core parameter for evaluating the risk of coal dust explosions in industrial process safety management, is influenced by multiple coupled factors including water immersion time, coalification degree, volatile matter content, and particle size distribution. This study systematically investigates the mechanism by which coal dust characteristics affect the MIT in the context of industrial water-related coal handling processes and builds a multi-factor predictive model using experimental testing and machine learning methods—with the goal of providing a tool for process safety risk mitigation. The Godbert-Greenwald furnace was employed to measure the MIT of coal dust clouds under various water immersion conditions. Key influencing factors were identified through Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses, with a focus on their relevance to process parameter optimization. The XG-Boost algorithm was utilized to develop a predictive model with features such as water immersion time, volatile matter content, active functional group content, median particle size, dust cloud concentration, and wettability. The results indicate that the volatile matter content (Pearson coefficient −0.78, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &lt; 0.001) and active functional group content (Spearman coefficient −0.71, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &lt; 0.001) are strongly negatively correlated with MIT, serving as key determinants influencing MIT in coal-related industrial processes. Water immersion time shows a moderate negative correlation with MIT (Spearman coefficient −0.50, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &lt; 0.001), with prolonged immersion reducing MIT by 60°C—this elucidates how moisture (a controllable process factor) changes the hydroxyl content and pore structure of coal dust surfaces, thereby lowering the activation energy of oxidation and increasing process safety risks. The XG-Boost model ranks feature importance as follows: volatile matter content &gt; active functional group content &gt; water immersion time &gt; wettability &gt; dust cloud concentration &gt; median particle size—providing clear guidance for prioritizing process parameter monitoring.

Guided by the Risk Information Seeking and Processing (RISP) model, the field investigation employed semi-structured street interviews (n = 33) to explore patterns of public risk perception and behavioral responses in Natech scenarios. The findings reveal that Individuals with dual identities (the workers at chemical and distillery factories and residents) tend to have a higher Natech risk perception. In addition, behavioral responses are influenced by risk perception, while decision-making is shaped by perceived barriers and response evaluations. Moreover, insufficient Natech risk information drives risk communication only when individuals are willing to reduce Natech risk but lack the information for effective responses. Lastly, a social expectation bias exists between actual Natech risk perception and behavioral responses and the intentions expressed in interviews.

While BORA is traditionally used to assess the performance of safety barriers, it has limitations, particularly in dynamic risk assessment, handling dependencies, and managing uncertainties. To address these issues, fuzzy logic is applied to transform generic data into fuzzy sets, using the cumulative inverse method to derive crisp values using screened OREDA, ICSI, and SINTEF datasets supplemented by calibrated expert triplets to address data gaps and imprecision. This approach enables a more accurate representation of frequency and failure probability values. By incorporating a BN, the framework yields a versatile model capable of probabilistic reasoning. This enhancement enables real-time updates of risk levels by considering the interdependencies of safety barriers while incorporating the latest available data. The suggested approach involves transforming BORA into a network of probabilistic variables, enhancing predictive accuracy and decision-making processes. The importance of this approach is underscored through uncertainty and sensitivity analyses. A case study in the CP2K Unit Reactor showcases the practical benefits of using the fuzzy BORA-BN in industrial processes.
