The storage of hazardous chemicals is an important link in the supply chain. Improper storage of hazardous chemicals can cause great security risks. The occurrence of hazardous chemicals accident not only causes economic losses, but also destroys environment. Much of this is due to the lack of effective means of storing hazardous chemicals. With the continuous development of modern science and technology, many new technologies have been used, such as RFID technology in the Internet of Things. However, many enterprises are still in the traditional stage in the storage of hazardous chemicals. If RFID technology is combined with the storage of hazardous chemicals, it is an effective way to improve management efficiency, reduce operation cost and enhance safety level. In this paper, we use RFID technology to establish the storage management system and traceability system of hazardous chemicals based on Internet of Things. Through the establishment of these two systems, it can effectively save costs, reduce security risks, improve safety levels and increase consumer confidence.
