Jack Rabbit: Chlorine Properties

Jack Rabbit: Chlorine Properties is a 28-minute video that uses footage from the Department of Homeland Security’s Jack Rabbit release trials to demonstrate chlorine’s dispersion properties. The video covers the following topics:
- Introduction
- Dispersion
- Pressure Differentials, Phase Changes, and Thermal
Considerations
- Density
- Different Atmospheric/Land Conditions

This should be required viewing for anyone that lives near a railway. Excellent video! Thank you for your efforts to keep us safe!

I am here after the chlorine gas that was dropped in jordan after a chain snapped moving it to the ship.

0:53 I love how you can see the unadulterated color of chlorine on the left, whereas the other stuff either has HCl fumes or dust clouds or even droplets of liquid chlorine. Terrifying

[chrism]

The narration has such a cheerful tone.

The chlorine cloud rushing towards the camera around 1:08 was horrifying. All I could think about was the soldiers in WWI seeing something like that.

It's nutty watching something so incredibly deadly, then just having a guy explaining it super casually.

Chlorine is an insanely important and interesting element.

[Hardys-Mods]

here after the horrible shipping incident

rest in peace poor workers. What a way to go... it was crazy to see such a big cloud in a "real" evironment.

Chlorine Institute?
That's one highly specific channel.

don't underestimate...the effects of inhaling a light concentration of chlorine gas are debilitating.
Thankfully, the odor of chlorine is intense; providing an opportunity to take protective measures.

Watching all that chlorine spill out is scary.

Excellent video - it demonstrates the flows of the gases. Great for training purposes.

I used to see trucks carrying chlorine gas on my way home from work the wall thickness of those cylinders was insane.

[charlesthepaperman]

Very interesting.
Especially the chlorines behavior due to self refrigeration.
I must wonder why retreating to an attic shall not be done (mentioned at 20:40) despite the supposed urgency of moving to the highest level possible.... 🤔

As I understand, the electrolysis of seawater creates a lot of caustic soda and hydrogen. The caustic soda is used a lot in industry and so it the hydrogen. Chlorine is considered a byproduct and has created a glut in the market. Therefore all this chlorine released was probably excess chlorine.

very good awareness and useful in practical field

[Godwhsperer]

My thoughts were on the chlorine attacks of world war 1. For the first time seeing in color what a massive chlorine release looks like and the color of the landscape through a chlorine lens, like the soldiers saw through their gas masks.

Is there a posibilty to see the ammonia video ? Amazing content ! Im a first responder !

[sebassanchezc-]

Came to confirm or not the accident in port city of Aqaba Jordan

[darylcheshire]

similar releases of fluorine would be more dramatic. Iodine releases would be boring.
