7 injured in pesticide plant explosion

A news article mentions about an explosion in a pesticide plant in China. It appears to be an explosion in a solvent storage tank. Storage tanks are often not given the importance they deserve. For one thing, they are located away from the plant and the further away from the plant, the more likely it is going to receive less attention. It is a good practice to conduct surprise audits of your storage locations to check any deviations from the safety systems provided.
Read the article ( it has got pictures in page 2 and 3 also) in this link.
