Sounds like Ammonium Nitrate stored in a warehouse from this long abandoned vessel https://www.fleetmon.com/maritime-ne...rhosus-beirut/ was ignited by welding spark.
If you'd like to believe that it's somehow comforting that:
- Extremely hazardous materials routinely pass through port cities though means of transit that are generally in poor repair and staffed inadequately
- Levels of government and their enforcement bodies are so inept that they seize hazardous materials they are in no way equipped to deal with safely
- Bureaucracies are so overburdened that they can forget/choose not to deal with 3000lbs of volatile explosive materials stored near densely populated areas in a timely matter
- Such levels of hazardous materials being woefully cared can be well documented through news agencies and still result in nearly no public outcry
Sure, I guess that's the "comforting" storyline we're accepting here? I mean ineptitude is no where near as glamorous as conspiracy but no less terrifying in my opinion.
I thought ammonium nitrate had to be mixed with something for it to go big kaboom?
Should be picked back up in the BF forum please n thanks.
Wasn’t looking for terrorist related stuff. Just asking as I’m not an explosive expert.
I though ammonium nitrate when it gets wet or breaks down creates nitrous oxide
Which is not a high speed explosion. However if you add certain additives and compress it. It will have a detonation of over 10000 m/second.
