In 2019 CSIRO was charged with breaching federal work health and safety laws over an explosion which occurred on 6/06/2017 at a Melbourne research facility. A researcher was conducting an experiment that involved sawdust being heated at pressure using hydrogen gas in an autoclave. Gas leaked from the autoclave and ignited, causing injuries to the scientist, extensive damage to the building, and debris being thrown up to 20 metres away. on 16/03/2021 the charges were withdrawn as CSIRO will spend $1.5 m on WHS measures as part of an enforceable undertaking with Comcare.
