What happened

Fire and several explosions occurred at Sunflare Industrial Supply Corporation's used-oil-to-diesel facility in the Powerplant Industrial Park after electricity returned following a local brownout. Eight fire engines reportedly responded, and the fire was declared out at about 00:10 on 27 November. No casualties were reported because the plant was not operating at night. Police and municipal officials opened a joint investigation; an anonymous source alleged that an overheated conversion oven caused the initial explosion, but that claim was not adopted as a finding. The incident occurred on 26 November 2019—not 25 November or circa 2018 as suggested by relative-age search metadata.

When cited sources give different casualty, damage or spill figures for this event, they’re reported side by side above rather than merged into one number. See how confidence levels work.
