KNOWLEDGE OF Capitán Bermúdez
Capitán Bermúdez is a small city in the province of Santa Fe, Argentina, located within the metropolitan area of Greater Rosario, north of the city of Rosario, on the western shore of the Paraná River. It has a population of about 27,000 inhabitants (as of the 2001 census).
The town was founded in 1889, and officially became a city in 1970. Its name is an hommage to Justo Bermúdez, a captain of the rebel forces of General José de San Martín during the Battle of San Lorenzo.
The city hosts important industries that make use of environmental harmful chemicals, including a petrochemical plant and a paper mill. According to studies conducted in the 1990s by Greenpeace, the paper plant (property of Celulosa S. A.) is responsible for contaminating the Paraná River with chlorine-derived chemicals and others (methoxyphenols such as chloro-guaiacol, di- and tri-chloro-phenols, alkylbenzenes, sulfur compounds, long-chain hydrocarbons, and chloroform). Similar charges have been made about the petrochemical plant Electroclor, owned by ICI, which manufactures chlorine.
