Nine injured in east China chemical plant blast
An explosion at a chemical plant in east China late Saturday injured nine people with 150 firefighters battling the resulting blaze, state media reported.
The blast comes after 121 people were killed in massive explosions last week at a hazardous goods storage facility in the northern port city of Tianjin.
The incident Saturday occurred at a plant in Huantai county near the city of Zibo in Shangdong province, Xinhua news agency said, citing the official Sina Weibo microblogaccount of the Zibo public security bureau.
The plant is a subsidiary of Shangdong’s Runxing Group and produces chemicals including adiponitrile, a combustible chemical mainly used in the production of nylon, it said.
