Causes of Refinery Explosions

When certain chemicals, gases and other substances are kept in an unstable state or are exposed to heat, spark or fire, they have the potential to explode. When a substance explodes, it rapidly increases in volume, with a violent release of energy. The cause of a refinery explosion may be due to:

• Chemical spill
• Fire
• Electrical malfunction
• Defective machinery
• Maintenance or monitoring failure

The result is a blast of chemicals, high temperatures, and shock waves. Understanding where and how the different types of refinery explosions occur can help keep you, your co-workers, and your family safe.
