  • TEPCO finds minor leaks in reactor cooling system

    Tokyo Electric Power Company, or TEPCO, resumed the operation to cool damaged reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant on Tuesday. But it says it found minor water leaks in a newly-installed cooling system.

    TEPCO said it traced the leak to a joint connecting plastic hoses near a pump injecting water.

    It also says 14 tons of recycled water and 2 tons of fresh water have been injected into the reactors per hour.

    TEPCO's "circulating injection cooling" operation is designed to decontaminate radioactive wastewater in the reactor and turbine buildings and then use the treated water to cool the reactors.

    The system stretching 4 kilometers is equipped with devices to filter radioactive material, oil and salt.

    TEPCO believes the system holds the key to stabilizing the reactors and reducing the amount of contaminated water that is accumulating and threatening to overflow.

    It halted the system after only 90 minutes on Monday when treated radioactive wastewater was found to have leaked from a joint connecting hoses. The joint was near a treatment tank.

    TEPCO did not check the possibility of a water leak in starting the system on Monday.

    The utility says it will continue to inject water while watching out for more leaks.

  • @Edano So really they are recirculating water but the level of decontamination is unknown ? is the 14tons per reactor or total ? I am so sick of this the IAEA have spent our money on their merry jaunts and lavist summit but the result seems to be even less news
