The factory was trying to open post lockdown when styrene gas leaked. At least eight persons, including two senior citizens and an 8-year-old girl, died and over 5,000 people fell sick. A large number of animals including pet dogs, livestock, and birds have died. People are being advised to wash their homes once with plain water to clean any particles of the styrene.

The LG Polymers industry was established in 1961 as Hindustan Polymers for manufacturing polystyrene and its co-polymers in Vizag. It was merged with Mc Dowell & Company Limited of UB Group in 1978. The plant makes polystyrene and expandable polystyrene, a versatile plastic used to make a wide variety of consumer products like toys and appliances.

Styrene monomer is normally in a liquid state and is safe below a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. But, because of the malfunctioning of the refrigeration unit, the chemical started gasifying.

How the gas leaked and why the neutraliser at the plant did not prove effective in containing the leak will all be investigated. Styrene, though, is not a poisonous gas and can be fatal only if inhaled in excess quantity.
