Cs-134/137 level in the groundwater of the seaside of reactor2 increased 6 times much as 10 days before

According to Tepco, Cesium-134/137 density in the groundwater marked the highest in seaside of reactor2.

The sample was taken from one of the borings in the area surrounded by the impervious walls.

Cs-134 density was 13,000 Bq/m3, Cs-137 density was 31,000 Bq/m3.

The past highest readings were 3,200 Bq/m3 of Cs-134 and 4,300 Bq/m3 of Cs-137 measured on 8/19/2013.

The main nuclide in the groundwater used to be Tritium. It is not known why Cs-134/137 density is increasing.

Sur le côté mer du réacteur 2, la radioactivité en césium 134/137 des eaux souterraines multipliée par 6 en 10 jours

 

Selon Tepco, la radioactivité en Cs 134/137 des eaux souterraines marque un record sur le côté mer du réacteur 2.

L’échantillon provient d’un des forages de l’intérieur de la zone encerclée par des murs étanches.
Le Cs 134 y est à 13 000 Bq/m³, le Cs 137 à 31 000 Bq/m³.
Les records précédents étaient à 3 200 Bq/m³ pour le Cs 134 et 4 300 Bq/m³ pour le Cs-137 et datent du 19 août 2013.
Le nucléide principal des eaux souterraines était le tritium. On ne sait pas pourquoi la radioactivité du Cs 134/137 augmente.

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.
