No one wants to talk about the one valve design flaw… lets just circle jerk and talk about the heros instead of the bomb in the middle of the poors neighborhood so we can build a chatgipity porn bot center. What a way to drive down home prices. The levels of dumb fuckery is astounding. What a fucking dog and pony show. It was like just fucking blow up already… east palestine all over again. Ohh thank gawd not … don’t chu worry disater is just around the corner… it is by design… O0oO0Hhhhh tHe hUmAn!+y … They still talking about the one white removed nancy but fuck the kids in GAZA. We are a fucking evil people… some just stoopid some too ambitious with no common sense. Oh gipity
I think there’s probably people who would be interested in talking about a valve design flaw, but based on the Wikipedia article, seems like the valve may not be to blame. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_Grove_chemical_leak
Not really sure what your comment is about, but I am really interested in how a situation like this could be handled. The polymerizing chemical probably caused an isolation valve to stick shut. Sounds like the relief valve was working and by cooling the tank with water firefighters were able to decrease the pressure enough to have the relief valve close.
I guess I’m still a little confused about where the rupture hazard was coming from if the tank wasn’t over pressurized and it wasnt really hot enough (~100 F) to decrease material properties of the tanks.
Maybe they were worried about the situation that they seemed to have under control turning into a runaway reaction?
