I could almost swear that somebody has been sneaking around on my territory.!! This bears a remarkable resemblance to Grangemouth Refinery.. :)
Great image ..never thought of using the stacks for this challenge, although I`ve photographed them many times...well done
By the way, if it is Grangemouth and these are smoking stacks and not steaming stacks..then I`m getting into the car and getting as far away as possible :)

like this one - 8
maybe you could crop 1/3 of the black area off the bottom my eye tends to be drawn to it looking for detail when it should be on the horizon / sky

I think this is too dark, has too much solid black area; adjusting exposure or lightening in post processing to give some details in the black would have improved it, or perhaps crop the bottom and emphasize the sky a bit more

Looks like either freaky whitebalance, or freaky sunset... I like it. 9

Nice composition and use of a sunrise/set to create a blocked shot. I like it.

great use of time of day. love the silouette and color of the clouds and "smoke/steam"

It's steam. Cropping out the pole & tanks on the right would have cleaned this up nicely.
