Explosion turns waste plant into an inferno (8:11)
(CNN) -- An explosion at a hazardous waste plant rocked suburban Detroit late Tuesday, sending fireballs and billowing smoke hundreds of feet in the air.

Authorities with the Romulus police department and the fire department said the explosion happened at a chemical plant shortly after 9 p.m. and that a one-mile radius around the facility has been evacuated, including a nearby Ford plant.

Some workers were inside the waste plant at the time of the blast, but all of them got out safely, said Kathleen Trent, spokeswoman for the city of Romulus. No injuries were reported.

Some witnesses described the explosion as big enough to send a mushroom cloud 500 feet into the air.

Video from the scene showed bright orange flames lighting up the nighttime sky, with occasional explosions sending the flames even higher. The fire engulfed much of the facility and spread across nearby grassy areas.

Authorities identified the plant as the EQ Resource Recovery, a hazardous waste treatment and storage facility. The plant's Web site says it "accepts bulk and containerized liquid and solid wastes," including 400 different types of waste such "as high boiling solvents, lean waters and non-dispersible solids."

The Environmental Protection Agency is en route to the city, and will monitor the surrounding air using aircraft and a mobile unit, Trent said.

The evacuation order affected about 100 homes, she said. "Luckily, the area where this plant is located is not heavily populated." About 50 people were at a shelter in Romulus, Trent said, and about 100 at a shelter in nearby Wayne.

"I'm sure (the order will) stay in effect until the fire is extinguished or burns itself out," she said.

The plant is located near the Detroit Metropolitan Airport, but airport spokesman Michael Conway said the fire was not affecting flights in and out of the airport.

Amy Middleton, a spokeswoman for Oakwood Annapolis Hospital in nearby Wayne, said at least nine people living in the area surrounding the plant had sought treatment there for respiratory distress. None of the injuries was serious, she said
