Narrative

An employee was working to unplug a 1.5-inch hydrated lime injection nozzle and disconnected a flexible hose at a camlock fitting to access the nozzle. When the line cleared, the hydrated lime released the blockage and blew into the employee's face. The employee ingested and inhaled hydrated lime (a respiratory irritant) and was hospitalized.
