Six workers in the Indian factory died of inhaling toxic gas, and more than 20 people were sent to hospital. How did this poisonous gas come from?

Toxic gases come from chemical reactions. A factory illegally discharged chemicals into the river. These discharged chemicals react with another chemical in the river to produce toxic and harmful gases, which eventually lead to inhalation poisoning by passing workers.

The illegal discharge of chemicals itself is an extremely dangerous thing. They will not only pollute the environment, but also produce toxic and harmful substances, endangering nearby creatures.

Poisonous gas poisoning in India led to the death of workers, and the production of toxic gas could not be separated from the following two factors.

1. Factory chemicals randomly emit toxic gases from the original clean and clear streams near the factory. Because of the construction of factories, they have become waste disposal sites. Many factories discharge unqualified waste directly into rivers.

The root cause of the accident was that the factory illegally discharged dangerous chemicals into the river without permission. Factory managers, when discharging dangerous substances, may not have expected such serious consequences, and they themselves will be severely punished by the regulatory authorities for this behavior.

Second, chemical reactions produce toxic and harmful gases. It is simply that the factory discharges chemicals in violation of regulations, which may not produce toxic gases and cause poisoning symptoms to workers passing through here. The poisoning incident occurred because the factory discharged chemicals, and the water already contained chemicals, which caused a chemical reaction. Under the reaction of the two, toxic and harmful gases are produced.

These toxic and harmful gases will be inhaled into the lungs after spreading into the air. The amount of inhalation determines the degree of poisoning of workers. Six workers died from inhaling too much toxic gas.

Through this incident, we saw the horror of chemicals and understood that it is a very dangerous behavior for factories to discharge toxic substances at will. For such factories, the regulatory authorities should impose heavy penalties and strengthen daily supervision.
