I am wondering how the blast set off the fires at the other locations? None of the news show the plant I suppose because of the no fly zone. How did the other structures catch fire?
They will bring in a team of blast expert's like arson investigator's and find the source.
Then there will be a team of Root Cause Failure Analyst piece together the cause with a timeline of event's, this could take months to know what really happened. Being reported by the USGS reported that the blast registered a 2.1 on the Richter scale.
There are a ton of way's that the secondary fire's get started.
The shock wave has massive power from an explosion like that, along with all kind's of missile's from the flying debris of the blast. I haven't made ammonia since the mid seventies, if it does catch fire it is very hard to see until it get's big. Ninety nine percent of the time the big explosion is the secondary to third effect in a chain of event's.
That may never find some of the people in the plant. The houses and other buildings mean nothing all that can be rebuilt, just money. There are many people's families that will be changed forever over the loss or injury of a loved one.
All we can do is pray and ask God to comfort them and assit them in rebuilding there lives.
There are so many thing's we use in our daily lives we take for granted, that are dangerous to make.
