Hydrogen Peroxide is not combustible but it is a STRONG. OXIDIZER which enhances the combustion of other substances.

It's 15 miles away and your first concern is an Airbus plant?

Just put peroxide on a paper cut, #metoo. It’s a dangerous world, be careful out there.

That’s about 20 mins from me.
Hopefully no injuries.
I always assume the worst with these chemical plants

Probably lost refrigeration. It's probably not like the stuff we use at home. Almost guarantee it is pure peroxide and not diluted and if so organic peroxides will start self decomposing once they get above freezing and then boom. Similar thing happened at the Westlake plant in Geismar years ago. They were using organic peroxides in their PVC reactors and the building lost its refrigeration unit and it went up.
