Fire in chemical unit

A fire in a  chemical unit in Udaipur has gutted the unit. In the pictures in the news report in this link, you can see remnants of barrels that have caught fire. Often, plants store chemicals in barrels on roads due to lack of space. This practice is a waiting time bomb. Barrels exposed to heat from a fire can explode violently and  spread the fire rapidly.
