About 40 residents in a city in northeast China were hospitalized after a sulfur dioxide spill from a petrochemical company, local government sources said today.
The spill occurred around 9:00 a.m. Tuesday at the Jinzhou Petrochemical Industrial Co Ltd, in Liaoning Province, according to the Jinzhou City Work Safety Administration.
The leak lasted ten minutes and five kilograms of sulfur dioxide were released, the administration said.
All the residents who fell ill complained of pain in the throat and chest, and were taken to nearby hospitals.
A two-millimeter crack on a pipe led to the spill, according to the administration.

Kazakhstan to look at oil[- and sulphur] transit discounts for Ukraine
Kazakhstan will consider a 40-percent discount on oil transit and a 30-percent discount on sulfur transportation from Kazakhstan to Ukrainian sea ports and border crossings with third countries. This is provided for by the protocol signed by Ukrainian-Kazakhstani intergovernmental commission for economic partnership.
Alongside this, Kazakhstan will look into creation of competitive tariffs for Uzbek cotton transit via Ukraine and Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan will report the results to Ukraine within a month. The parties will also keep working on the new Silk Road linking China, Kazakhstan, Ukraine and Western Europe.
