Smoke rises from a Total petrochemicals

Smoke rises from a Total petrochemicals plant in Carling, eastern France, after an explosion that killed two people, injured five and left others buried under rubble on July 15, 2009. A score of fire engines and 50 firefighters were sent to the plant after the blast in a steam-cracking furnace which damaged equipment but did not cause a fire. The oil giant's Carling plant produces a range of petrochemicals including ethylene, propylene, methane and styrene, and plastic consumer products such polyethylene and polystyrene, according to Total.
