Tepco, “The pump leakage was caused by the change of air temperature, countermeasure is “patrol” “

About the major leakage of highly contaminated water, Tepco is transferring water from the crippled reservoirs to the safer tanks and other reservoirs.

However, even in the transferring, they had water leak from the pump.

(cf, [Can’t stop leaking] 6.4 billion Bq leaked from the pump on transferring to the safer reservoir [URL])

This pump leakage is affecting the other transferring to cause the delay of the entire plan.

(cf, Tepco postponed transferring contaminated water due to the pump leakage [URL 2])

According to Tepco, the pump leakage was caused by “the change of air temperature”. Their actual countermeasure is only “patrol”.

Tepco : La fuite de la pompe est due à un changement de température de l’air, la contre-mesure est de “patrouiller”

 

Concernant les fuites majeures d’eaux extrêmement radioactives, Tepco transvase l’eau des réservoirs endommagés dans des citernes et d’autres réservoirs.
Cependant, même pendant le transvasement, ils ont eu une fuite à une pompe. (cf. [Ça n’arrête pas de fuir] 6,4 milliards de Bq ont fuit à partir de la pompe de transvasement vers un réservoir plus sûr)
Cette fuite de pompe perturbe les autres transvasements en provoquant des retards au planning entier. (cf. Tepco repousse le transvasement des eaux extrêmement radioactives à cause de la fuite à la pompe)

Selon Tepco, la fuite de la pompe a été provoquée par ‘le changement de la température de l’air”. Leur réelle contre-mesure se réduit à “des patrouilles seulement”.

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.
