1,388 m3 of groundwater used to flow into the plant everyday before 311

In early August, Tepco announced 1,000 m3 of groundwater flow to the plant every single day.

On 8/23/2013, Tepco revised their own estimate. They state it’s only 800 m3 based on their new simulation model.

However, their own record reports 1,388 m3 of groundwater (average) used to flow to the plant buildings everyday before 311.

This is stated 3 page before they mention 800 m3 of groundwater on the same report.

Now Tepco is struggling with the increasing groundwater on the seaside of reactor2, but reactor2 received the least groundwater according to Tepco’s report before 311, which is 80 m3/day.

This is only 27% of the groundwater to flow to reactor4.

There is a possibility that Tepco was having the press focus on the least serious problem among other risks.

You can ignore the truth but the truth won’t ignore you.

Avant le 11-3, chaque jour 1 388 m³ d’eaux souterraines s’écoulaient dans la centrale

 

Début août, Tepco avait annoncé que 1 000 m³ d’eaux souterraines entraient tous les jours dans la centrale.

Le 23 août 2013, Tepco rectifie ses propres estimations. Ils affirment qu’on n’a que 800 m³ selon leur nouveau modèle de simulation.
Or, leurs propres rapports disent qu’avant le 11 mars 2011, 1 388 m³ d’eaux souterraines (en moyenne) s’écoulaient chaque jour dans les bâtiments de la centrale.
C’est affirmé dans le même rapport 3 pages avant qu’ils mentionnent les 800 m³.
Tepco se débat actuellement avec la montée des eaus souterraines sur le côté mer du réacteur 2 mais le réacteur 2 est celui qui recevait le moins d’eau avant le 11-3, selon le rapport de Tepco, soit 80 m³/jour.
Ça représente seulement 27% de l’eau qui rentre dans le réacteur 4.

Il est possible que Tepco a tenu les regards de la presse figés sur le problème le moins grave par rapport aux autres risques.

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
