8 damages found on the stack for reactor1&2 / 66 m from the ground

According to Tepco, 8 points of the stack for reactor1&2 have the ruptures and rust.

The stack was used for venting in 311. It’s 120m tall and the damages were found at 66m point from the ground.

The stack has 440 joint parts. 8 parts of them are cracking, slipping and rusting.

M5.8 hit Fukushima plant area on 9/20/2013, but Tepco states it’s unlikely that the stack gets collapsed due to the damages.

They also stated the damage was caused by the earthquake of 311, not deterioration because of the high level of radiation.

8 points endommagés sur la cheminée des réacteurs 1 & 2, à 66 m du sol

 

Selon Tepco, 8 points de la cheminée des réacteurs 1 & 2 présentent des ruptures et de la rouille.

Les cheminées servaient à l’aération avant. Elles montent à 120 m et les dégâts ont été trouvés à 66 m du sol.
La cheminée porte 440 joints. 8 d’entre eux sont fêlés, ont glissé et rouillé.
Un séisme M5,8 a frappé la région de la centrale de Fukushima ce 20 septembre 2013 mais Tepco affirme qu’il y a peu de chances que les cheminées s’effondrent à la suite des dégâts.
Ils affirment aussi que les dégâts ont été provoqués par le séisme du 11-3 et non pas à cause de la très haute radioactivité.

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.
