The leakage of the tanker is plugged.
At 10:52 am on April 9, there was a traffic accident 58km away from Tianjin on the coastal expressway. A tanker carrying dangerous chemicals leaked, and the people were trapped. The Qinhuangdao Fire Rescue Detachment took actions quickly, to rescue them with special tools, and successfully coped with the emergency.
After receiving the call, the Qinhuangdao Fire Rescue Detachment Command Center immediately dispatched firemen and 4 fire engines from the Wufengshan Road Fire Station of the Changli County Fire Rescue Brigade, and 5 rescue vehicles from Xingkaihu Road Fire Station and other fire stations.
The leaked substance was acrylonitrile, a highly toxic and flammable chemical product. The vapor is explosive in the air, which can easily cause combustion and emit toxic gases when exposed to open flames and high heat.
At that time, the acrylonitrile had leaked out and the smell was pungent. The firemen rescued the trapped persons immediately with demolition tools, and sent them to the hospital for treatment. After on-site investigation and judgment, they decided to cover the ground and the tanker with foam, and plug the leaks with non-sparking metal plates and glues.
