As a major fire breaks out at a Lithium Battert Recycling plant triggering explosions leading to mandatory evacuations
30 Oct 2924
Watch as numerous fire departments rush to the scene of a major fire at a lithium battery recycling plant in Fredericktown, Missouri, earlier this evening.
The blaze, which broke out at the 225,000-square-foot facility owned by Critical Mineral Recovery, led to shelter-in-place advisories and mandatory evacuation orders in the surrounding area.
According to its website, the company uses this facility to “recycle lithium-ion battery materials from battery manufacturers, automotive OEMs, battery dealers, recyclers, and processors worldwide,” describing it as “one of the largest lithium-ion battery processing facilities in the world.”
All plant workers have been safely accounted for, with only minor injuries reported

Commentary:
the folks who have houses that were in that smoke plume have no idea what they are in for ... smoke is nothing more than a mixture of microscopic particles ... those particles fall to the ground sooner or later and cover everything ...
Smoke alerts kept advising folks to stay indoors.
Everything in that battery plant fire smoke plume will be finely coated with a highly toxic witches brew of lithium compounds and other compounds ... people there are going to slowly sicken and die and their properties will become worthless ... by then, there will be nobody to sue ... in the mean time, though,Trump 47 needs to make sure that the Feds don’t cover this up due to their irrational love of highly toxic lithium battery technology ...
Looks like Service Pro has a job to do here after the smoke clears.
