Primes¶
- Bypassed Safeguard
- The hazard was a runaway reaction in a methyl-isocyanate storage tank, and the plant carried four engineered safeguards against it: a refrigeration system to keep the tank cold, a vent-gas scrubber to neutralize escaping gas, a flare tower to burn off vapour, and a water curtain to knock down a release.
This sourceForensic account of the engineered safeguards (refrigeration, vent-gas scrubber, flare tower, water curtain) each routed around in enacted practice; the standard narrative confirms each was shut off, on standby, down for maintenance, or undersized at the time of release.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
