Natrium Gas Plant: Benzene-led volume
Among the 339 Natural Gas Processing facilities in this database, Natrium Gas Plant reports the 156th-largest volume (27.4K lbs). Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Benzene alone is 79.3% of the total. Carcinogen-classified chemicals make up 79.3% of the reported pounds, not just of the chemical count. Scale peers outside West Virginia include Mertzon Gas Plant and Thompsonville Gas Plant.
Concentrated means ≥60% of Natrium Gas Plant's pounds in one chemical - here Benzene at 79.3%. Not a toxicity score.
