Huge Lithium fire
Did anybody see that huge fire at the lithium recycling plant in Fredricktown, MO ? The plant was reportedly the largest plant of its kind in the western hemisphere. Luckily all employees got out safely.

They at least have a good evacuation plan. Now they need to work on a safety plan for the processing.

Why did the fire department spray water on the fire?

A company I used to work for lost a site to a drum of LiIon batteries… Some politics involved but the drum was supposedly the culprit that started the ball rolling.
