Horlivka Chemical Plant remediation The Horlivka Chemical Plant, located in the City of Horlivka in the Donetsk region of Ukraine is an abandoned industrial site that is highly polluted and poses a significant and immediate threat to the health of the local population. A former chemical and explosives production facility, the site contains thousands of tons of mononitrochlorobenzene (MNCB), a blood toxin, and approximately 30 tons of trinitrotoluene (TNT), an explosive and poisonous toxin as well as a known carcinogen, that are stored in flooded underground tanks and are leaking into soil and groundwater. The Government of Ukraine allocated USD 7.5 Mio for the on-going safe disposal of MNCB. However, the TNT stored at the site represents a secondary complicating factor and magnified risk. An accidental explosion due to TNT could directly release into the air enormous amounts of MNCB, and consequently affect the entire population in town (260,000 inhabitants).  The main objective of the project is thus to assist the Government of Ukraine to urgently, comprehensively and safely address the issue of toxic pollution and its human health effects caused by the presence of TNT at the Horlivka Chemical Plant.  The main outcome will be an improved health, safety and environmental situation in Horlivka resulting from the removal of TNT and associated refin
