The blast
happened at a power plant in Dangyang, in the central province
of Hubei, on Thursday afternoon, state television said.
Deadly accidents at industrial plants in China are relatively
common, and repeatedly raise questions about the country’s
safety standards.
China vowed to improve industrial standards after chemical
blasts in its port city of Tianjin last August killed 165
people.
