Shell asks EPA for complete burn permit for Vulcanus
Shell Chemical Company asked the Environmental Protection Agency at a second public hearing in the Shamrock Hotel to authorize the incineration of the remaining 12,600 metric tons of organic chloride wastes from its Deer Park plant aboard the Vulcanus. The company cited prior data from a 4,000-ton test burn showing 99.9 percent combustion efficiency, less than 0.5 pH unit ocean alkalinity change, and no visible environmental stress in the fallout area.
