The World waiting for another industrial catastrophic
It may be near to you and bomb is ticking and waitingfor men made
disaster. Wehumanbeingsinviting thesedisaster becauseof negligence
and not reporting anyincident about industrialmismanagement.
A recent Beirut incident shockthe whole world, more than100 people dead
and 4000 peoplegot injured in thiscatastrophic. But questionstill in our
minds, what another catastrophic waitingfor and how many people lose
their preciouslife just becauseof other faults.
Industrialsafetyprocedures alreadyin place to protect people’s life, but
ignoring safetyprocedures, it will lead to men madecatastrophic. Which we
seen in manyoccasions, Lebanon catastrophiccanbeavoid if authorities
took actionagainst ofabandoned ammoniumnitratestocks. It looks like a
another Hiroshima and Nagasakiafter bombing.
World Most Major Industrial Catastrophic
OPPAU EXPLOSION,GERMANY
Thisincident took placein 21 September 1921in BASF chemical plant,
approximately 4,500 tonnes of a mixtureofammonium sulfateand
ammonium nitratefertilizer stored, got exploded and morethan 600
people died and 4000 people got injury. Industrialinvestigationreport said
incident tookplace becauseof not maintaining industrialsafetymeasures.
THE DISASTER OF COURRIÈRES(FRANCE)
March 10th, 1906 is the dateof the worst mining accidentever happened in
Europe: in the French town of Courrièresan explosionof the local coal
minecaused the death of 1099 people. One of the hypothesized causes
was the ignitionofmethanefor the presence of a naked flame. Thisincident
investigationleadstonot following safetystandards.
THE EXPLOSION OF BENXIHU COLLIERY (CHINA)
On April 26th, 1942, in thecoal mine of Benxi, China, an explosion of gas
and coalpowders caused the death of 1549 miners. Only few were killed
by the explosion itself, while most suffocated becauseof the consequent
shutdownof the ventilationsystem. Safetystandardsnot following is one of
the mainreasonbehind of it.
BHOPAL ACCIDENT,INDIA
On December 3rd, 1984, over 40 tons of Methyl Isocyanate leaked
from the Union Carbide India Limited (UCIL) plant in Bhopal, India.
The causesof the disaster wereattributed tothe negligence and the
inadequate industrial safety measures adopted bythestaff. The
effects of toxic gasare still felt today, as malformationsand dysfunctionin
newborns and diseases among thepopulation.killed more than15,000
people and affected over 600,000 workers.
THE DEEPWATER HORIZON OIL DISASTER
The worst environmentaldisaster in Americanhistory: onApril20th, 2010,

group, was drilling the MacondoProspect offthe Louisiana coast. An
explosion on the platform killed 11 people while 17 were injured. The
consequent oil spill lastedfor 106 days, bearing seriousconsequences
for marinelife and local population’shealth. BP cost is in excess of 62
billion dollars.
THE CHERNOBYL DISASTER (UKRAINE)
The last industrialaccident welist is the most famousone. On April26th,
1986, a humanerror (together with structuralproblemsofthe system)
caused a series of explosions insidethe Chernobyl nuclear power plant that
destroyed the reactor and annexed buildings, causing therelease of a
radioactivecloud. 43 workers died immediately, about 125,000 people
were killed inthe following years by cancer or other illnesses caused by
radiationexposure, thousandsofUkrainianswereforced to move.
Chernobyl is also themost expensive industrialaccidentever, as its total
economic impact isestimated in about 200 billion dollars.
Industrial Accident Reasons
Country Condition
Without destructionno development and it’s a difficult taskto maintain
integrityinindustrialdevelopment. Whenwe talk about developing and
underdeveloped countries, theyprovide manfacilitiestoinvestors
otherwise, otherwiseinvestorswill pool backtheir investments. Sosome
ignorancefactor allowing tosetup any industrialplant inparticular
countries.
Management
It’s depend upon management thinkinghow to operatetheir respective
industry. Industry safetystandard need aninvestment to carryout any
safety operations. But as we know management peoplearelooking for cost
reducing option, and not spending money on safety measuresreally impact
to safety of the people.
Bribery & Corruption
Wastemanagementisexpensive processand hugeinvestmentsare
required for disposal. For saving that money industriesdump their
untreated wasteinriver or land. Local authoritiesareinchargeof thisto
forcefully apply these laws on industries. If authorities not perform their
dutiesand responsibilitieslead to disaster.
Employment
Industriesarethe mainsourcefor employee generation, without industry
development employee generationisdifficult task. Government can’t
providejobs to everyone, it should be go through a different mode of
employment. Industry createsmorethana 40% employment in the world.
These are mainfactorsbehind of any catastrophic reasons, not following
safety measuresand profit oriented approach leadsto men madedisaster.
Summary
Don’t give reason to support any wrong thing it’s becomehabit for anyone.
Industrialdevelopment really need for any countries, but giving leniencyon
safety measureswith justificationleadsto a different dimensions. Countries
have to changetheir industrialpoliciestoprotect integrityand peoples
lives. These catastrophiccomeswith massiveimpact, economywillgo down
and peoples lost lives. Billions of rupees have to spend to clear these kind of
mess, as we seen in man industrialaccidents.
Industrialdevelopment policiesshould be revised with moreaccountability
and responsibility. Lawsand regulationshould be revised on this kind of
negligence. An internationalforum should be introduced totacklethis kind
of issue in future, so accused businessman will not run awayfrom justice.
