Posted by Mochizuki on April 26th, 2013
According to Tepco, they are ready to discharge pumped ground water to the sea. Currently 400 tones of ground water flows to the plant everyday. To control this water, Tepco made 12 wells to pump up the water before flowing to the plant. Tepco is now ready to discharge the water pumped from 4 of [...]

Posted by Mochizuki on March 19th, 2013
Tepco is going to discharge the pumped ground water to the sea if it’s lower than 1,000 Bq/m3. There is no explanation about the nuclide. Tepco is trying to pump up the ground water to reduce the amount to flow into the plant. As Fukushima Diary reported on 3/1/2013, they are to discharge it [...]

Posted by Mochizuki on March 12th, 2013
According to Tepco, radioactivity density of seawater jumped up in all of the reactors on 3/11/2013. Tepco is running out of the capacity to stock contaminated water. On 3/7/2013, Fukushima Diary reported “Radiation level in sub-drain of reactor1 and 2 picking up” [URL 1]. It can be suspected that the contaminated water is already leaking [...]

Posted by Mochizuki on March 5th, 2013
According to Tepco, tritium and Sr-90 density in sea water picked up last December. The sampling location is about 30m point in north of reactor5 and 6 discharge channel. Officially they haven’t discharged the retained contaminated water to the sea. Tepco releases the report about tritium and Sr-90 density irregularly, and they don’t release the [...]

I asked him why he doesn’t analyze food for tritium along with cesium-134/137. Tritium is radioactive water. It’s really hard to remove and causes lymph related cancers etc.. He said he won’t do it because even if he measures tritium from food or tap water, he can’t do anything. He measured a lot of food [...]

Posted by Mochizuki on March 4th, 2013
Tepco is going to discharge contaminated water to the sea, however, they would take over 56 years to discharge all tritium to the sea according to Tepco. The tritium is contained in the contaminated water. This is on the assumption that the retained water does never increase even by 1cc for the rest of time, [...]

Posted by Mochizuki on March 1st, 2013
On 2/28/2013, the current Fukushima plant chief Takahashi stated Tepco is going to discharge underground water to the sea this April at the earliest. 400 tones of underground water is flowing into the plant everyday. To reduce this amount, Tepco is now digging 12 wells in the upstream of the plant. They are going [...]

Posted by Mochizuki on March 1st, 2013
Tepco is planning to discharge the contaminated water to the sea. To ease the repellence of local residents and stakeholders, Tepco is going to operate ALPS (Advanced Liquid Processing System), which removes 62 sorts of radionuclides from contaminated water. However, the radioactive water, Tritium can’t be removed even by ALPS. (cf, Tepco to discharge 2,000 [...]

Posted by Mochizuki on January 28th, 2013
Tepco is going to discharge contaminated water to the sea. (cf, Tepco officially announced to discharge contaminated water into Pacific ocean [URL]) Tepco states the discharged water will be purified by the purifying facility “Alps”, but it can’t filter out the nuclide called “tritium”. Tritium is radioactive water. It is estimated that the water contains [...]
