After heavy lobbying by the chemical industry, which still uses asbestos diaphragms to produce a third of the nation’s chlorine, it now may be up to 12 years before the last chlorine company converts to non-asbestos technology. The mine was closed in 1990, but its asbestos dust has so far been tied to 400 deaths and 2,400 cases of disease.
