To take an advantageous stance in the recent
competition of semiconductor industries, companies have made
efforts to invest terms of technological advancements. From 1993
to 2006, enormous fire accidents occurred in three national
science parks in Taiwan. This research focused on whether the
very early smoke detection apparatus (VESDA), could adequately
assist the emergency response center (ERC) members to take
actions when alarm occurs. Besides, the research also analyzed
every VESDA alarm that happened from 2004 to 2006 for the
purpose of increasing ERC personnel’s experience and
coordinating ERC with departments of Safety management,
environmental protection, facility engineering, and equipment
sections together to investigate better solutions to related
problems.
