Emissions events anyone?


To call the recent events at Equistar Chemicals a Chinese fire drill would be an insult to the Chinese, so we won't do that. Suffice it to say, they're trying to figure out why the Halon fire extinquisher system prematurely discharged yesterday.

Meanwhile, in the town that time forgot, the Chevron Phillips refinery in Sweeny released 8,893 lbs of ethylene.
