Bhushan Steel Suffers Explosion & Fire
Written by John Packard
Last week Bhushan Steel, an Indian steel mill known for its exports of coated steel products to the United States, suffered a devastating explosion and fire which has killed at least one person and injured five others. The blast occurred when Bhushan was attempting to commission a blast furnace.
Reports out of India suggest that molten pig iron came into contact with water resulting in a severe blast and fire.
