In today's episode, we look around an abandoned bromine factory that started the extraction of bromine from sea water in 1953. The bromine was reacted with ethylene to produce di-bro-mo-ethene, a key component of leaded petrol. In the 1990s, the sale of leaded petrol was in decline, so the plant diversified into making other bromine based chemicals. In 2003, the company took the opportunity to open another plant, located in the dead sea, that produced 14,000 parts per million compared to only 65 parts per million in the factory. In 2004 the factory closed its doors leaving over 100 people unemployed. Join us on this explore as we take a look around this old industrial site
