Shandong Luxi Suffered A Fire Accident in Plants. (May 1, 2023-May 7, 2023)

Editor:ACMI-Silicon Jul-17-2023

On May 1, an explosion and fire accident occurred in the hydrogen peroxide plants of Luxi Chemical Group under Sinochem Holdings Co., Ltd, causing a great number of casualties. The accident was preliminarily attributed to as follows: When the reactor of the hydrogen peroxide device was used to recover the working liquid, it inhaled 70% concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the large amount. Impurities may exist inside the reactor, causing violent decomposition of hydrogen peroxide and triggering over-pressure explosions in the configuration reactor. The company has shut down the devices involved in hydrogen peroxide, caprolactam - nylon 6 and polyol. The specific resumption time is yet to be determined, and the direct losses caused by the accident are still being counted. Luxi Chemical apologized to all entailed parties in public.
