Fukushima: Reactor 4 is fully covered! | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 41348913  Japan06/12/2013 07:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OKUMA, Fukushima Prefecture--A canopy has been completed over a heavily damaged reactor building at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant in preparation for removing the spent nuclear fuel inside. Tokyo Electric Power Co. allowed reporters to tour part of the facility, which experienced reactor meltdowns after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami disaster, on June 11. The upper part of the No. 4 reactor building was blown off in a hydrogen explosion. The canopy covering it will prevent further leakage of radioactive substances when workers remove spent nuclear fuel from the building. The No. 4 reactor had been shut down for regular maintenance when the tsunami struck, but its storage pool contains 1,533 spent fuel rod bundles that still generate large amounts of heat. TEPCO has said it will equip the canopy with a hoist to remove spent nuclear fuel from the pool as part of the decommissioning process at the crippled plant. Source: [link to ajw.asahi.com]  |

You can see it also via the Cam from our glorious Friends of Tepco  Are they still letting radioactive water flow into the ocean or collecting it for municipal consumption now? I never forgive and I never forget I am a licensed firearm holder. I will, under protection of law, use lethal force if attacked.  |

No, they didn't letting Radioactive Water flow to the Ocean since more than 700 Days but soon they want to release a bit of lightly contaminated Water, afir. 0,60 Bq a Liter! |

You can even see the Rods of Nr. 4 Sfp! Believe in Physics when you don't trust the so called Reality! The pool did go dry, I saw the pics from Tepco. Which is why they were trying to dump water in there from a tall crane designed to pump water/concrete for construction purposes. The rods can still be visible while they are dripping fuel/rod material. If the rods are knocked out of place and piled together chaotically, they can create enough heat to boil off the water in days. In fact, cooling pools need to be cooled. Which it was not for the longest time after the disaster. Physics, that's another story. Every great Physicist knows real life is the say all, not the other way around. Since there was substantial neutron bursts from reactor 4 in the past during the disaster, we can be sure there was a run away fission event inside. WHich WILL lead to a corium blob at the lowest level. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33825975 Way too little way to late. Afaik this is Bs. we would be literally Death in that case! Also how did the Fire extinguish? According to all the professional Fearmongers such a Fire would burn until the final Days/ Eternity but this not happened! Ergo: The Pool didn't burn up! |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 41578462 Japan06/12/2013 09:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | @ Voltaic, After the hydrogen explosion in unit 4 early on Tuesday 15 March, Tepco was told to implement injection of water to unit 4 pond which had a particularly high heat load (3 MW) from 1331 used fuel assemblies in it, so it was the main focus of concern. It needed the addition of about 100 m3/day to replenish it after circulation ceased. [link to world-nuclear.org] |
