(Plastemart) -- In addition to two
pressure tanks that have been shut, the Taiwanese government has ordered Formosa
Plastics Group to suspend use of four more pressure tanks at Mailiao
petrochemical complex. The shutdown, with effect from mid-August, is of the
tanks run by Formosa Petrochemical and Formosa Chemicals & Fibre, and has
been triggered by fear that the materials of the tanks are prone to explosion.
Safety checks will likely last for two months.
