High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Ajka alumina sludge spill was an industrial accident at a caustic waste reservoir chain of the Ajkai Timfoldgyar alumina plant in Ajka, Veszprem County, in western Hungary. On 4 October 2010, at 12:25 CEST (10:25 UTC), the northwestern corner of the dam of reservoir no. 10 collapsed, freeing about a million cubic metres (35 million cubic feet) of liquid waste from red mud lakes. The mud was released as a 1–2 m (3–7 ft) wave, flooding several nearby localities, including the village of Kolontar and the town of Devecser. At least nine people died, and 122 people were injured. About 40 square kilometres (15 sq mi) of land were initially affected. The spill reached the Danube on 7 October 2010.
