Financial Associated Press, January 2 - an explosion occurred in Linfen dyeing and Chemical Group Co., Ltd. in Linfen, Shanxi Province on December 28, 2021, killing four people. After preliminary investigation and analysis, the direct cause of the accident was that there was a leakage point in the discharge steam jacket pipe from the nitrification separator to the water washing boiler in the No. 2 nitrate workshop. When the hot work ticket and safety measures were not completed, the leakage point of the jacket pipe was repaired in violation of regulations (electric welding), resulting in the thermal decomposition and explosion of 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene in the discharge pipe. At present, the detailed cause of the accident is under further investigation.
