Firefighters from Milan’s provincial command (who came to the forum with the Nbcr nucleus and the division crew via Darwin) and Corsico’s carabinieri are also on duty. Take steps to disperse the leaking vapors: Firefighters open all the doors and windows of the system and position the fans to force air circulation.
Chlorine Leak in Forum: What Happened
Human error may have caused the leak during the maintenance phase of the pond. An outside company employee would pour chlorine into a box at the bottom of the pool. Subsequently, this material may come into contact with sulfuric acid, another substance commonly used to clean tanks, initiating a chemical reaction.
Through Giuseppe di Vittorio the whole structure was expelled as a precaution because the material entered the air ducts and spread over 5 floors scattering throughout the 45 thousand square meter system.
