Possible melt-out in Fukushima Daini

Following up this article..Drug abuse of Fukushima workers

Mr. Suzuki suggests the possibility of melt-out in Fukushima Daini in his book.

 

福島第2原発・・・通称2Fの状況が明らかに異様だ。なにがあったとしかおもえない。

Fukushima Daini, 2F as they call, is very mysterious. Something must have happened there.

それほど2Fは汚染がひどい。

2F is that contaminated.

2Fの原子炉は4基、震災と津波によってそのすべてが停止している。冷却に問題はなく、原子炉の温度が安定しているが、復旧作業が行われたのは4号機だけだ。業者の証言を集約し、東電関係者に汚染の事実をぶつけると、急に腰砕けになった。

There are 4 reactors in 2F and all of them stopped. Coolant system is properly working and the temperature is stable, but it’s only reactor 4 to have been recovered. Collecting comments of subcontract companies, I asked about the contamination situation to Tepco workers. They turned to be helpless.

「たしかに・・・・まだ定検を開始していないのに、なんでこんなに汚染されているの?とおもいます。

最上階のオペフロ(オペレーションフロア)やコンクリート遮蔽プラグなんて信じられないほど放射能まみれ。・・・ペデスタルにも水が溜まっている。」東電関係者

“Yes, true.. I wonder why it’s so contaminated. The operation floor on the top and concrete shielding plug are unbelievably contaminated. Water is even in pedestal (=The room under pressure vissel).”

「ペデスタルに水が溜まってるといった・・・それが事実なら、すごい圧力がかかったということ

・・・制御棒か配管か、壊れた場所は特定できなくても、とにかく原子炉の底は抜けている。福島第1原発と同じく水素爆発があったと考えるのが妥当。ウランを核爆発させている原子炉格納容器・・・

つまり心臓部が破損したから、釜の上下に異常がある」某電力会社OB

A retired employee of an electric company said, “If water is in pedestal, it means pressure vessel had excessive pressure. Control rod or pipes are severely damaged. The bottom of the reactor is broken through. Like Fukushima Dai ichi, it is rational to think there was a hydrogen explosion.”
12月の終わりに東芝が3号機に入る予定だったのに、入らなかったんですよ。

Toshiba planned to enter reactor 3 it the end of December, but they didn’t.

8月の終わりに4号機に日立が入ったあとで、「4号機が爆発してるんじゃないか」というウワサが広がったの。

After Hitachi went into reactor 4 in the end of August, the rumor spread that reactor may have exploded.

メディアも事実確認に行ったけど、掴めなかったみたい。

Media tried to report but they couldn’t confirm.

現状に関しても、現場のごくごく一部の人しか知らないみたい。第二原発は一見普通に見えるんだけど、

Only few plant workers know the current situation. 2F looks normal but

炉心周りの業者に聞くと、みんな「怪しい」と口をそろえるわけ。

Subcontract companies to work around the vessel all say it’s suspicious.

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.
