| Abstract |
Report on a fatal accident that occurred to workers removing shuttering from a concrete floor cast over 3 wooden tanks impregnated with creosote, intended for storage of soy sauce. When the liquid residue in the tank was stirred during reconstruction of the accident, 600-1,100ppm H2S was detected in the air, but the O2 concentration did not change appreciably. In a model experiment with samples of the liquid in the tank, a higher concentration of H2S was generated by stirring while water was added than by stirring alone. The accident was attributed to H2S that had been generated under the particular conditions of storage. Summary in English. |
