Bhopal Disaster by shafinsq is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The Bhopal Disaster on December 3, 1984, involved the release of approximately 30,000 kg of methyl isocyanate, resulting in over 4,000 deaths and 170,000 injuries. The gas escaped due to a refrigeration failure that allowed water to mix with MIC, generating heat and pressure, ultimately leading to a catastrophic release. Key safety systems were non-functional, and there was a lack of emergency preparedness among both employees and the surrounding community.
