"Praxair: Explosion unlikely"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "An explosion like the one that erupted at a Praxair Inc. plant in St. Louis last week is unlikely to ever occur at the company’s Town of Tonawanda facility, company officials said.
A chain of explosions at the Missouri gas packaging plant June 24 sent huge fireballs shooting into the sky and forced nearby residents to evacuate their homes. Hundreds of missile-shaped containers of propane and the highly flammable chemical acetylene exploded and dozens were propelled into surrounding neighborhoods, according to Steve Selk, who is heading a government team investigating the incident.
There were no injuries.

The Town of Tonawanda facility is an engineering center, she said, made up of mainly offices with a few research and development labs. The outfit where the explosion occurred is a gas-packaging plant, where bulk volumes of gas are delivered and packaged into metal cylinders.
“Our research and development labs will use gases as part of their research, but it’s nothing like the St. Louis facility that had thousands of cylinders” of gas, she said. "
