An explosion occurred in the center of Moscow


There was an explosion in the Panorama business center in Moscow. The center is located on 2nd Brest Street.



It is assumed that the epicenter of the explosion was on the eighth or ninth floor of the building (depending on whether the first floor is the location of the hall). Rescue and other emergency services arrived at the scene.

According to Moscow journalists, repair work was carried out on one of the upper floors of the business center building. What exactly repair and construction crews did there is not yet reported. According to one version - “an oxygen cylinder exploded”, however, there are no official confirmations or refutations of this version at the moment.

Eyewitnesses report that cars parked near the building of the business center suffered from the explosion. Many of them have broken glass, damaged headlights.

The territory of the business center is cordoned off, there are emergency personnel.



Glass with a frame on the 9th floor of the building is broken (if the floor of the main hall is considered the first floor).

      Traffic on 2nd Brest Street is completely blocked. Drivers are advised to go around this section on 1st Tverskaya-Yamskaya, the center for traffic management in Moscow said.

          No wonder: my neighbor's batteries were changed: Gaster came and brought two cylinders of oxygen and acetylene to the floor. The cylinders are old, rusty - I wanted to see the stamp of the last check - figs found - everything was erased. There are no flywheels on the valves on both cylinders - they open them with an adjustable wrench in dirty gloves (oil, not oil, don't care), the hoses from the times of "Ochakov and the conquest of the Crimea" do not hold the connections, hisses, it stinks of acetylene on the entire staircase-like, let's "cook" ... I hear, bang, bang, the mixture breaks, but then it seemed to be brewed normally. When they took away their device and left, I crossed myself.

        Named the cause of the explosion in a business center in Moscow. Workers violated safety precautions, which led to the depressurization of the oxygen cylinder. After the explosion, a small fire started, which was quickly put out by the emergency workers who arrived at the emergency site.

          and what will happen? the rag will light up and that's it. in the worst case it will rip out the WB (balloon valve) and this piece of iron will fly out into the street, BUT it will not burst. it has a wall thickness of 8 mm, it needs to be shot from an RPG. I have a gas cutter experience of 30 years, so I know what I'm talking about. Here’s a propane bottle, in inept hands, a terrible thing.

            It is not a fact that an oxygen cylinder specifically exploded, very often explosions occur due to oxygen leakage. Although if you drop the oxygen cylinder, and even so that you would rip out the valve ... yes in a closed room! Also, there will be no weak "bang", taking into account the consequences.

            The measurement units are confused. More precisely, 14,7-19,6 MPa. And it explodes, as already mentioned, in the presence of oil.

              when I was taught, I didn’t use any MPa. the pressure unit was ATM. I didn’t mix anything up. I need to drown it in a barrel with oil. What you write is a test pressure of 150 atm.

                and for him to take off, he must be drowned in a barrel of oil.

                Enough key in oil and a little leak. Unfortunately, I witnessed the explosion, a long time ago it was - 25 years ago. The gas welder was then badly burned, plus he was concussed, but he remained alive, thank God. Yes, the balloon itself does not explode, but sharply released oxygen produces something like a volume explosion.

                  I’ve never seen anything in my life, but already in retirement. I’ve lived all my life at defense plants, and there’s a step to the right, a step to the left of TB and PB, give me your coupon and retake the factory commission. And every year I pass exams on gearboxes , cutters, cylinders and the rules for their operation. then passing exams on fire safety rules for firefighters. for 30 years, everything has eaten into the brain, wake up at night, it will bounce off teeth. how many times I walked along the street, watched how clummers work, watched and quietly .After 5 minutes, the equipment and documents for the hot work would be lost. And then they are surprised at, AX EXPLOSION OF A CYLINDER.

                    This is yes! Elementary rules for working with lifting devices are not followed, where there are more complex things. By the way, we have not only "kalym workers". Just this week I watched the work of the emergency brigade of our local Vodokanal. It's just that the eye catches automatically: how much distance should there be between the propane tank and the oxygen one? And they stood next to them, less than a meter, plus the carver itself a little more than a meter from the cylinders is working - it's scary to even look.

      An explosion occurred in the center of Moscow


      Why does the author not observe the good-lookingness of Putin’s newspeak:

      COTTON - explosion.
      Flooding - flooding with an arbitrary number of victims.
      SMOKING - fire.
      FALLING OF PLASTERS - the destruction of the ceiling in residential buildings, medical and educational institutions, caused by their dilapidation.
      HARD LANDING - a plane crash in a collision with the ground; the plane fell apart and burned out.

      God forbid to fall under this business. About 15-20 years ago it was. Somehow he walked along the street past a welder, he cooked some kind of pipe with gas, he just walked 20-30 meters behind him as he bangs, I turn around welded, my clothes are torn, a gas bottle is torn apart, a rag burns about meters 10 from the weld and his cap hangs on the wires. It’s true I didn’t even have time to get scared, I just almost jumped from surprise and roar, then I just realized. So lucky.

      God forgive me ... If it explodes, then it is either propane or acetylene. No way the oxygen cylinder can not get it. This is a very perverse need. And in the end everyone wants to live.
