College authorities soon evacuated all the students and sent five of them to a hospital because they felt sick. Medical examination showed they had no problem.
Air quality in the region returned to normal two hours later. Officials said liquid ammonia in a condenser leaked from a valve. The factory, which belongs to Zhengding County Forestry Bureau, has been suspended.
The cause of the accident is still under investigation, the paper said.
