[Sad news] South Korea sees that eight times as many pollutants as Fukushima were dripping into the Sea of ​​Japan

On September 5, South Korea ’s Ministry of Science, Technology, Information and Communication remarked on the issue of “tritium water” (treated water containing radioactive tritium) that continues to increase at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant site There is serious concern about the possibilities and the potential environmental impacts associated therewith, ”a letter was sent to the IAEA. The IAEA general meeting scheduled to be held in the middle of this month seems to appeal this issue to the member states (in other words, to make noise). By the way, Korea operates four CANDU reactors (heavy water reactors) at the Walsong nuclear power plant (however, Unit 1 was decommissioned last year), but this type of reactor has a higher tritium release than light water reactors. An order of magnitude larger. The annual release of tritium from the Tsukishiro Nuclear Power Station has been halved since 2010 due to the introduction of tritium recovery facilities and the shutdown of some reactors, but until 2009 it exceeded 400 terabecquerel. Even after only October 1999 when it entered the four-unit system, it has released tritium over 6,000 terabecquerel. Since the total amount of tritium stored at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant is 760 terabecquerel (as of March 2016), the cumulative release from the Tsukishiro Nuclear Power Station is about eight times that amount. Moreover, its destination is the Sea of ​​Japan. * Some excerpts from the link below.
