Abstract
⺠A forceful accidental outburst of 1100-3900 tonnes of CO2 is analysed. ⺠The CO2 accumulated in a valley and led to asphyxiation fatalities. ⺠Dispersion modelling predicts that the high-momentum release would dilute safely. ⺠Predicted concentration contours cannot explain the asphyxiation harm observed.
