We do have an EO plant on site along with about 10 other units. The fact is you don’t use EO gas to make MDI. If it’s used to make polyols that’s great. Polyols is the part b for most applications and the EO at that state would be reacted out and not nearly as dangerous as the pure EO that is at ...

I’ve worked in an MDI plant for the last 12.5 years we don’t use EO or PO. We use CO to make phosgene. The only plus to working at an MDI plant is no highly volatile gases....

We as union operators are the ones pushing for more stringent safety rules. Most people clump all unions together without having ...

Personally i got a good bit out of culinary school. My wifes cousin is currently enrolled at Nichols she enjoys it. You need to let your daughter know that the life of a professional chef is not what you see on TV. The hours are long and the pay is not great everywhere. Also you will work nights...

For hotel pans buy them new. You can find them locally at Sams. You might also want to look at Ducote's on Florida Blvd. I have found them to have the best prices in BR and they carry some used equipment. BigTray.com is also a good web site....
