Inadvertent mixing incident causes chlorine cloud

More than 100 people were treated for respiratory problems after an inadvertent mixing of chemicals caused a large gas cloud at a plant in Kansas, USA. The two chemicals involved in the spill were identified as sulfuric acid and sodium hypochlorite, which mixed to create a chlorine cloud.
Are you training personnel on the inadvertent effects of mixing of chemicals?
