On the same day, two workers in the membrane filtration post of the extraction workshop of Yidu Dongyangguang Biochemical Pharmaceutical Company had an accident while cleaning the transfer tank of erythromycin fermentation broth. Kong Mingming, a post operator, died of suffocation on the spot, and another worker, Yang Haibo, was seriously injured.
The reporter learned in a hospital in Yidu that the injured Yang Haibo was rushed to the hospital for treatment after the incident, showing symptoms of poisoning. At present, he is still receiving treatment in the ICU of the hospital, and he is still unconscious at the time of publication. It is understood that Yang Haibo, who was 28 years old at that time, lived in niejiahe Town of this city. He had just worked in Dongyangguang Biochemical Pharmaceutical Company for one year and had a son under 6 years old.
A worker of Dongyangguang Company told the author that according to the regulations, the workshop should clean the transfer tank of erythromycin fermentation broth filtrate every other week or so. At the time of the incident, the pores first entered the water tank for cleaning. Yang Haibo, who was outside the tank, found that there was no sound inside, so he entered the rescue, only to be knocked down. Other workers found out and rescued them from the tank, but by this time, Kong Mingming was dead and Yang Haibo was in a coma. Some workers said that it may be caused by some waste gas generated in the tank.
After the accident, Yidu Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government attached great importance to it. Zhuang Guangming, deputy secretary of Yidu Municipal Party Committee and mayor, Jiang, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and executive deputy mayor, and deputy mayor immediately led government offices, safety supervision, environmental protection, public security, commerce, labor and other departments to rush to the scene to set up accident handling working groups such as medical treatment, accident investigation and after-treatment and start work.
