#Fukushima Now – Current State of Post-Accident Operations at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (August 2024 to January 2025)

Excerpt: State of #ContaminatedWater

"Contaminated water countermeasures at #FukushimaDaiichi #NuclearPower Station (#FDNPS) can be broadly divided into three areas: 1) Reduction of #groundwater flowing into buildings, 2) Reduction of #ContaminatedWater flowing into the sea, and 3) Reduction of the toxicity of contaminated water.

"Countermeasures implemented to reduce water inflow into the buildings are, from higher elevations downward, (A) Pumping up groundwater at the groundwater bypass and releasing it into the sea (953,611m3 up to February 10, 2025), B) Installation of a frozen earth barrier (on-land water barrier, total length roughly 1,500m) surrounding FDNPS Units 1-4, C) Pumping up water at the subdrains and releasing it into the sea (1,801,404m3 up to February 9), and D) Paving of the site with asphalt to suppress permeation of rainwater into the soil. Measures to prevent the discharge of contaminated water into the ocean include A) Groundwater leakage prevention by a steel water barrier on the sea-side and B) Pumping up of groundwater dammed up behind the sea-side water barrier from the well points and groundwater drains. Due to these measures, the volume of contaminated water discharged, 540m3/day in May 2014, fell to 80m3/day in FY2023, and was below 100m3/day in FY2024.

"In the reduction of the toxicity of contaminated water, cesium and strontium are removed, and after the removal of impurities using a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane, the multi-radionuclide removal equipment (ALPS – Advanced Liquid Processing System) then removes 62 radionuclides [NOT COMPLETELY!!!]. The water is then stored in tanks (containing 1,297,190m3 as of January 30, 2025. However, due to past equipment #malfunctions and operational policies, around 64% of the stored water exceeds the notification concentration).

"Oceanic release of the ALPS-treated contaminated water began on August 24, 2023, a total of 78,285m3 being released in ten batches by January 2025. Table 2 shows the amounts released in each release and the total amount of tritium released. The concentration is gradually rising. One further release is scheduled during FY2024. In addition, roughly 15,720m3 of water remain in buildings, and a further 8,946m3 of strontium-treated water, etc., 5,644m3 of water treated by RO, and 9,463m3 of concentrated wastewater, etc. also exist onsite."

Day 29 - #disneyboundingdiscord - Makeup Day - Under the Sea. In honor of the 1954 film, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and the various versions of The Nautilus that have been at Disney World, Disneyland Paris & Tokyo Disney Sea. We wore these underwater themed hand me down dresses to match the vibes of the Monterey Bay Aquarium during our recent visit. 🌊🦑⚓️

The image features two women standing side-by-side in front of a body of water, posing for a photograph. The woman on the left has shoulder-length blue hair and is dressed in a black top paired with a long skirt adorned with a vibrant blue design. Her counterpart on the right boasts purple locks that fall to her shoulders and wears a white dress featuring a floral pattern, complemented by a light grey cardigan draped over her shoulders. In the background, a serene body of water stretches out beneath an overcast sky, providing a tranquil setting for the photo opportunity.
The image depicts a woman standing in front of a body of water, likely an ocean or lake, with a cloudy sky above. The woman is positioned centrally in the frame, facing forward and slightly to her right. She has long purple hair that falls down her back, and she wears a white cardigan over a blue-and-white floral dress. Her attire suggests a casual yet stylish approach to dressing for an outdoor setting. In the background, the body of water stretches out, its surface reflecting the cloudy sky above. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of serenity and tranquility, with the woman's relaxed posture and the peaceful surroundings combining to create a sense of calm.
The image features a woman standing on a bridge overlooking the ocean, dressed in a striking blue dress adorned with black swirls that evoke an underwater theme. In the foreground, the woman's vibrant attire is complemented by her bright blue hair and dark tights. Her left arm rests casually on the railing of the bridge, while her right hand hangs loosely at her side. The background showcases a serene ocean view, complete with gentle waves and a cloudy sky.
The image features a woman standing in front of a large circular window, which appears to be part of an aquarium or similar underwater exhibit. The woman has long dark hair and is wearing a white dress adorned with blue floral patterns. She stands with her hands by her sides, facing the camera directly. Her attire suggests she may be on vacation or at a tourist attraction. Behind her, the circular window offers a stunning view of the ocean floor. The water is a vibrant turquoise color, illuminated by sunlight filtering through the glass. Several yellow objects are visible in the background, possibly coral reefs or marine life. The overall atmosphere of the image suggests a sunny day at an aquarium or similar location, with the woman posing for a photo opportunity amidst the beautiful underwater scenery.
