A plant located in Luoyang producing hydrocarbone including n-Heptane, n-Hexane broke out of fire on 1:30am of 30th Sep. 2020. 30 fire trucks and 100 fire fighters go to the site of the accident to control it. luckily, no casualties reported.
This plant is key supplier of low assay n-Heptane and n-Hexane in China, but recevied penalty in 2016 for its weak security measure.
It is predicted that the price of n-Heptane and n-Hexane will rise sharply because of this incident. it give us warning for our own plant which need to pay more attention on security for these flammable liquid, whatever production or storage.
PS: Our plant of n-heptane & n-Hexane is running well
