A glass product factory in Chongqing poured out a thousand-degree solution from the crack of the furnace.

The incident occurred in a glass factory in Beibei, and the fire officers and soldiers "blocked" the loopholes with water. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

　　Hualong. com-chongqing morning post reported on January 6th. On the one hand, we can only watch the fiery red glass solution pour out from the crack of the furnace, while on the other hand, fire officers and soldiers and workers set up dense water guns to spray at the crack. The fire can’t stop, the water can’t stop, the fire and water attack each other, and the steam is steaming. The night before yesterday, Beibei Dongyang Glass Products Factory made an emergency rescue. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

　　A thousand degrees of solution flows out like fire.

　　The night before last, on the first day after the New Year’s Day holiday, the night shift workers of Huangjue Dongyang Glass Factory in Dongyang Street, Beibei, as usual, stood in front of the melting furnace on the second floor of the workshop, carefully controlled the machine, and prepared to pour a batch of glass solution into the mold and pour the utensils.

　　"No, something’s wrong. The furnace is cracked and the glass solution is flowing out!" At 10: 11 pm, the first person to find the danger was the factory security guard patrolling to the second floor. He shouted in horror.

　　"Hurry to build a firewall to intercept." The security guard immediately told the workers to take measures and report to the factory. At this time, the furnace, which is about two stories high and contains 200 tons of glass solution, has cracked a hole in the middle and lower part. The solution of thousands of degrees Celsius, which was as dazzling as fire, poured out with white smoke, and it "snapped" everywhere, and soon spread to the second floor, and flowed to the first floor along the feeding iron frame of the furnace.

　　If there is a ceasefire, a batch of solution will be invalid.

　　Workers at the scene quickly set up a firewall about half a meter high and several meters long with fireproof bricks, but the high-temperature solution quickly penetrated the gap between bricks, which continued to endanger the finished glass piled up on the first floor.

　　If there is a ceasefire, all 200 tons of glass solution in the furnace will solidify into waste. In desperation, the factory has to let the workers keep the temperature of the furnace, and organize some workers to spray water on the leaking cracks with water guns to cool down, and at the same time ask the fire officers and soldiers for help.

　　"Flaming red, flowing like a waterfall." At 10: 30 last night, Beibei Chengdong Fire Squadron rushed to the scene after receiving the police, and found that the factory had lost control of the constantly leaking glass solution and could only cool the solution that flowed far away.

　　Vice captain Gan of the fire squadron immediately ordered the soldiers to lay a water gun array. One group concentrated on the water gun to cool the broken furnace body on the second floor, and the other group sprayed the solution flowing to the first floor with the water gun to avoid the explosion of the finished glass caused by high temperature.

　　The leak in the furnace wall was blocked by water.

　　After nearly 40 minutes of cooling, the high-temperature raw materials flowing to the first floor basically cooled into solid glass. Subsequently, two groups of water guns concentrated on spraying the cracks in the furnace, and the raw materials outside the cracks solidified and piled up bit by bit, finally covering the cracks and plugging the cracks in the furnace wall.

　　In order to prevent the solidified raw materials at the crack of the furnace from being melted by high temperature again, the workers set up a high-power fan at the scene to cool down with the water gun. The firemen didn’t leave until they were sure that there was no danger of another leak at the scene.

　　It is understood that this glass factory mainly produces glass containers, and the furnace where the accident occurred is made of fireproof bricks. According to the preliminary investigation, the fire brick in the middle and lower part of the furnace was aged and deteriorated after being baked at high temperature for a long time, resulting in leakage.

　　At 10 o’clock last night, the melting furnace of a glass factory in Dongyang Street, Beibei broke, and several tons of high-temperature solution leaked. Fire officers and soldiers were urgently removing the danger.
