Contaminated water crisis

92,000,000 Bq/m3 of all β nuclides detected from the new boring at 38 m from the sea

According to Tepco, high level of all β nuclides (such as Strontium-90) were detected from the new boring.

The reading was 92,000,000 Bq/m3. Tepco hasn’t tested a sample from this boring before.

It’s situated at 38 m from the sea. It’s also in the mountain side of the boring where they measured the highest reading of 630,000,000 Bq/m3 Tritium.

92 millions de Bq/m³ de β nucléides dans le nouveau forage à 38 m de la mer

 

Selon Tepco, des niveaux élevés en β nucléides (comme le strontium 90) ont été relevés dans un nouveau forage..

Le relevé est de 92 000,000 Bq/m³.(92 millions) Tepco n’avait pas encore pris d’échantillon dans ce forage.
Il est à 38 m de la mer. Il est aussi côté montagne par rapport à celui où ils avaient relevé le record de 630 000 000 Bq/m³ de tritium.

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.
