Tiwest are in fine form again tonight with two visible out of the ordinary plumes, one from the emergency stack around 7pm - suspected Titanium Tetrachloride and the biggest from the finishing building stack suspected Titanium Dioxide (Ti02) which has been listed as an IARC-2B carcinogen.
Emissions like this from Tiwest have become an all to common occurrence of late, so what is actually going on at Tiwest?
Runners up:–
BP for its highly visible particulate plume from the cat cracker stack – what happened to the filter that BP won the awards for?
Wesfarmers CSBP for its highly visible ammonium nitrate plume that has become the norm but never should have done had our so called protectors not continued to ignore our concerns.
All this from our "Green and Clean" Kwinana Industry.

Our friends from industry have been in fine form for weeks. What we would like to know is where has the DEC been hiding.
They have a strange way of protecting workers as well as communities. This is more of the head in the sand syndrome.
The stench also in the Rockingham areas just keeps on, keeping on.
Steve, stop assuming what you do not know. How do you know the DEC has done nothing??? as you have eluded??
One thing you may know, is assuming WILL make an ASS out YOU but not me!
Anonymous, I have spoken to the authorities about this and they have towed the CSBP line, "the plume is only visible because of the cold weather conditions" which does not explain why the plume was still visible in the afternoon on a day in the high 20 degress c.
I have lived in Kwinana for well over 30 years and I believe this plume has not been so visible for such a continued period before.
My suggestion was that either something is wrong with the filter system or it is being overloaded.
Anonymous seeing as you have so much to say regarding who knows what, how is it you've forgotten your own name or should you be known as the ASS?
I was once told by an "Industry Spin Doctor" that the plume i saw was only steam condensate. Why then did it smell like hyrogen sulphide/hydrocarbon and irritated my eyes,throat and caused wheezing in my chest. Let her breathe it in and tell me its only water vapour.
