Oh just another toxic spill no matter. Just 30 min later oh don’t even worry about it.
Balloons every day last week. Toxic release everyday this week.
I assume I was right in thinking it might not be a big deal on the surface since it breaks down into harmless shit, but isn’t exactly going to break down in the water supply?
it breaks down into NOx, toxic and oxidizing gases. and the process of it “breaking down” just means its reacting with other stuff in the environment, which will have unpredictable effects. it was only one tanker tho
Should break down via Heat + light -> NO2, O2, H2O which isn’t the worst, but there’s little heat + light under ground
NO2 is a NOx. NOx gases also dissolve in water at relatively high concentrations. it will also form NOx when reacting with other chemicals, and nitric acid will react with almost any organic chemical
