Abstract

As the application of nuclear technology expands, nuclear safety concerns have become increasingly prominent. In response, countries around the world are intensifying their investment in and research on nuclear emergency response equipment, recognizing that maintenance and support are critical components for managing biochemical crises. The maintenance and support of nuclear emergency response equipment have thus emerged as key elements in ensuring preparedness for such emergencies. The Chemical Defense Unit of the Armed Police, being an elite force in disaster response and rescue, plays a vital role in managing chemical accidents. However, several challenges currently undermine the maintenance of nuclear emergency equipment within the Armed Police, including inadequate self-sufficiency in maintenance, excessive reliance on local resources, and difficulties in ensuring effective support during mission execution. To address these challenges and improve maintenance support capabilities, this study proposes several key strategies: enhancing the maintenance support system, advancing the informatization of equipment, and strengthening personnel training. These measures aim to improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of equipment maintenance and to bolster the overall capacity to respond to nuclear safety incidents, thereby safeguarding national and public security. Research findings underscore the importance of establishing a robust support system, which will positively influence future emergency response efforts.
