HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Kucitseka kwemakhemikhali esikhungwini setimboni eLa Porte kubulale bantfu lababili kwalimata labanyenti ngaLesibili ebusuku. Lekhemikhali inetinhlobonhlobo tekusetjentiswa, kufaka ekhatsi kudliwa bantfu. Kepha ngendlela yayo lehlantekile, ingagcoba, ivutse futsi ibulale.
Lengoti lesendzaweni yase LyondellBasell yakhipha cishe emaphawundi langu 100,000 e-acetic acid, leyabangela kushiswa kanye netinkinga tekuphefumula kulabasindzile.
I-Acetic acid yintfo lesemantini lengenambala, inhlanganisela lephilako leneliphunga lelibi lesetjentiswa ekwakhiweni kwemapendi, tintfo tekuvala, kanye netinamatseli. Kuphindze kube yincenye leyinhloko yeviniga, noma ngabe lokuhlushwa kwayo kungaba ngu-4-8% kuphela.
Ngekuya kwemibhalo lekuwebhusayithi yaLyondellBasell, ikhicita lokungenani tinhlobo letimbili te-acetic acid ye-glacial. Lemikhicito ichazwa ngekutsi ayinamanti.
Ngekuya kweliphepha lemininingwane yekuphepha yalenkampani, lenhlanganisela iyavutsa futsi ingakha umhwamuko loqhumako ngesikhatsi sekushisa lokungetulu kwa-102 degrees Fahrenheit (39 degrees Celsius).
Kutsintsana ne glacial acetic acid kungabangela kutfukutsela emehlweni, sikhumba, emphumulweni, emphinjeni, nasemlonyeni. Umkhandlu we-American Chemistry utsi kugcwala kwale-compound kungabangela kushiswa.
Lizinga lelincane lekuchayeka lelibekwe nguMnyango Wekuphepha Nemphilo Emsebentini tincenye letingu-10 ngesigidzi (ppm) ngesikhatsi semahora lasiphohlongo.
Sikhungo Sekulawula Nekuvikela Tifo seluleka kutsi nangabe uhlangene naleli gciwane, kufanele usheshe utfole umoya lomusha, ususe tonkhe timphahla letingcolile, bese ugeza lendzawo lengcolile ngemanti lamanyenti.
