Back in November 2013, an explosion rocked an incineration plant in Tuas in a chemical accident, causing a blaze that unfurled over an area the size of two football fields.
Years since the incident, waste management company Veolia Environmental Services Singapore has since been fined $135,000 over the explosion that injured three of their workers, The Straits Times reports. The firm pleaded guilty to contravening the Workplace Safety and Health Act — they failed to conduct thorough testing of a waste liquid before mixing it with a chemical liquid.
