Toxic Waste

Image taken by Pierre Malychef of a group of barrels from the ca. 15,800 barrels carrying the toxic waste trade. Some of the worn barrels contained Dicofol, a highly toxic pesticide whose production and use are banned internationally under the Stockholm Convention. Dicofol is a nerve poison that can also lead to skin and eye toxic reactions in humans and endamage the fertility of several birds, reptiles, aquatic invertebrates and algae. Since Dicofol can be stored in fatty tissues, intense activity or starvation may re-catalyze the chemical, resulting in the reappearance of toxic symptoms long after actual exposure.

Image taken by Dr. Pierre Malychef documenting the 1989 Dora Port Explosion and its aftermaths on March 30th 1989. A destitute hangar with a pressure-torn roof post-explosion. We see 5 frontal sacks with the same “Ammonium Sulfate, BASF, made in Germany” mark as in another image with a close up portrait view of one of the sacks, dfound in the same album. Similarly to Hangar 12, the hangar is filled with white sacks, akin to the ammonium nitrate sacks we all became familiar with in the last 3 years.
