General Chemical Or Chemtrade:
The General Chemical (now part of Chemtrade) chemical plant in Illinois is a key facility in the production and distribution of industrial chemicals. The plant primarily handles a variety of chemicals including sulfuric acid, alum, liquid aluminum sulfate, and water treatment chemicals. With a workforce of approximately 200 employees, the plant operates on a large scale to meet the demands of various industries such as water treatment, pulp and paper, and chemical manufacturing.
Workers at this plant can come into contact with hazardous chemicals like sulfuric acid, which is highly corrosive and can cause severe burns upon contact with skin or eyes. Inhalation of sulfuric acid mist can lead to respiratory issues, including chronic bronchitis and lung damage. Aluminum sulfate exposure can cause skin and eye irritation, and inhalation can result in respiratory distress.
