Fuku: Cooling stopped at reactor #5 sfp July6 | |
Citizenperth User ID: 59621818 Australia 07/06/2014 01:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Published yesterday by Fuku Diary, ANOTHER leak (or several) but this at the common sfp (the big one): Quoting: RadChick Contaminated groundwater has started breaking into common pool, to where Tepco is transferring the fuel assemblies from Reactor4 pool. From Tepco’s announcement of 7/3/2014, they found groundwater was leaking into the basement floor of common pool building from 3 points of through-hole for piping. They state the water is drained from the floor funnel to contaminated water circulating system. The water is reported to be just groundwater, however it is contaminated. Cesium-134 density : 21,000 Bq/m3 Cesium-137 density : 60,000 Bq/m3 All β nuclide density : 170,000 Bq/m3 It is not clear why the contaminated groundwater suddenly started breaking into the common pool. (end snip) Hmmm, wonder how this ties in with what is happening at #5?

Quoting: RadChick The original alert came from John Doe in Japan, an American in Tokyo who has been updating this from day 1. We have had cooling interruptions periodically and will continue to have them because of the bombardment from neutron beams and gamma...the affect on metals causes accelerated fatigue through crystalization of the metal matrix. Wigner effect. Corrosion. Previous damage from the eq/explosions, etc etc. In the past TEPCO has always been able to get it back online, once with sfp4 just in the nick of time. The problem with 'leaks' is the water is radioactive and makes it hard for workers to get close and fix what they nned to. From CP's post it looks like enough water leaked to be somewhat measurable... The rods need constant cooling though so every day the temp is going to rise in the pool. If it gets to the point of boiling, then we have big problems. They will likely bring in spray pumps or garden hoses to refill the pool before that happens. But this is far less effective than having direct cooling that works properly. Thank you, RadChick for all you do! It is you, Citizenperth, Kevin Blanch, Chugaikian, and others who keep us informed. I thank you all. If not for you guys, we would not know the truth. :nn12: A little to far with that statement yer stupid, or uninformed.. we don't all 'live' here, nor in our mother's basement.... i supposed if all the news simply came from TEPCO you'd feel safe, no? :hentaidoom: No , fuck Tepco , there are plenty of people fighting for the truth!

The system was halted after a leak near one of the valves was detected, according to the company’s press release. The cooling system uses seawater that is being first pumped into the decontamination system and is then being fed to the reactors and the spent fuel pools. According to TEPCO, the temperature of the coolant liquid in the spent fuel pools is currently 23 degrees Celsius and no changes in the level of radioactive contamination has been reported yet Read more: [link to voiceofrussia.com] |

Quoting: RadChick lol The real shit-kicker may be this: Typhoon incoming, and it's a strong one. It will weaken from a possible 5 to a 2 or 3 before it gets to Fuku, at least thats what Weather Underground is reporting - but that is still pretty strong...just updated on Jeff Master's blog: In the Western Pacific, Typhoon Neoguri has strengthened into a dangerous Category 4 storm with 140 mph winds this Sunday morning, and is headed west-northwest at 12 mph towards a Tuesday brush with Okinawa in Japan's Ryukyu island chain. Satellite images show a huge and well-organized system, with a prominent eye, and very intense eyewall thunderstorms with cold cloud tops. WInd shear is light, 5 - 10 knots, sea surface temperatures are a very warm 30 - 31°C, and very warm waters extend to great depth along the storm's path, giving the typhoon plenty of heat energy to power potential intensification into a Category 5 Super Typhoon...Although ocean temperatures will cool and wind shear will rise as Neoguri approaches Japan, weakening the storm, the typhoon is so large and powerful that it will likely make landfall at Category 2 or 3 strength, causing major damage in Japan. [link to www.wunderground.com] Our best hope for the hurricane, is that it dumps fresh water onto the reactor cores to keep them cool, oh, wait, this means more ground water to wash the radioactive soil into the pacific….

RadChick (OP) User ID: 53635335 United States 07/06/2014 07:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Since TEPCO is using seawater for many of its cooling needs at the power plant, it has previously encountered heightened levels of corrosion, in sensitive equipment. The cooling system at various reactors has also been beset by calamities – from rats short circuiting the control panel and forcing a blackout, to an employee “accidentally” switching it off, though all were resolved before rod pools overheated. At the same time, TEPCO is struggling to deal with ever-increasing volumes of contaminated water which is being stored in hundreds of tanks at the facility and frequently leaking and contaminating the soil beneath it. And the much publicized plan to stop contaminated water from leaking into the sea by building an ‘ice-wall’ and freezing soil and water around the facility is not working as well as Japanese officials had hoped. ^^ Yeah it was a total failure, because it WON'T FREEZE.
