                EXPLOSION AND FIRE (FIRST CHEMICAL CORPORATION)

    

 

This investigation report examines an explosion and fire that occurred on October 13,

2002, at the First Chemical Corporation facility in Pascagoula, Mississippi.

The decomposition of mononitrotoluene inside a distillation column resulted in a runaway

reaction and explosion, with potentially catastrophic offsite consequences.

This report identifies the root and contributing causes of the incident and makes

recommendations on evaluating reactive hazards, applying lessons learned, layers of

protection, work practices, facility siting, and community notification.
