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.
nitric acid is extremely hygroscopic; its really hard to separate it from water. cleanup will likely not be done properly
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
Inside air: COVID stew
Outside air: Mustard gas
