Nuclear crisis: the impact of dumping radioactive water into the sea
IAEA: Did not take sufficient measures to prevent nuclear accident
Fukushima started pouring thousands of tons of radioactive water into the sea
Fails second attempt to try to seal leakage of radioactive water
The Japanese company TEPCO, operator of the nuclear power plant in Fukushima, began to pour 11,500 tons of radioactive water from the central Pacific Ocean.
Tokyo Electric Power (TEPCO) says that the concentration of radioactivity in water is one hundred times the legal limit. According to the Japanese press, the radioactive water comes from special deposits of the nuclear power plant.
The objective is to enable space at these locations to be able to move there the water with an even higher radioactivity, which floods the turbines of the reactors 1, 2 and 3 buildings, and seriously hindering the work of the operators of TEPCO to cool them.
What does this imply?
The effects on the environment are undeniable, but, as does not know with certainty the substances released into the sea, only you can talk about assumptions.
At the core of a nuclear reactor there are more than 60 radioactive contaminants from the fission of uranium, some of very long life and other very short-lived.
Among these pollutants, which would have major consequences for the environment would be iodine, strontium 90 and caesium (C-137). "Iodine affected immediately and stop mutations in the genes, from which it can then develop thyroid cancer."
Meanwhile, the strontium is accumulated in bones at least 30 years, as if it were calcium, and for years still radiating the Agency; "while the caesium is deposited in the muscles".
"Long-term nuclear contamination is deposited on the ground and at sea, and is incorporated into the food chain of fish, which are the basis of the diet in Japan, from the rest of animals, the plants"", fruit, vegetables", spoke.
"This process will be bioacumulando, i.e. it is passing an if I live to another and it is going to get worse." "An example of this is that of the thousands of reindeer that had to be sacrificed in the Arctic after Chernobyl, because they were absolutely contaminated through the lichens that had eaten"
It should be noted that another element that can be released in a nuclear accident is uranium. The isotope 234, one of three that can be found in a natural way, has a half-life of 247,000 years.
In addition, forms 238 and 235 of the uranium, which are used as fuel in the majority of the reactors in the world, have a length of 4.5 billion years and 710 million years, respectively.
and I think,... AND THE WATER IN SEAS AND RIVERS ARE EVAPORATED, IS CONDENSES AND IS TRANSFORMED IN RAIN.
THE WINDS ARE CLOUDS....
RADIOACTIVE RAIN...
DOES THE CHAIN OF FOOD TO WHERE IT CAN POLLUTE?...
OR WE JOIN OR US EXTERMINATED.
