JapanShe started draining radioactive waterfrom Fukushima Daiichi atomic power plant to the ocean.
Japanese public broadcaster study NHK of June 6, he confirmed this movement, saying that the Tokyo electrical Power Company (TEPCO) began releasing irradiated seawater afternoon June 5. The water was released into a specially built submerged tunnel that would drain contaminated water into the sea.
TEPCO estimated that the tunnel would be filled with about 6 tons of seawater by noon on June 000. It was previously stated that all construction works would be completed by the end of the month.
But according to a separate study China DailyThe trial was conducted "in secret". This is due to the fact that Tokyo's unilateral decision to drop more than 1.3 million metric tons of treated but inactive radioactive water into the ocean has sparked continuous organization protests in Japan and beyond.

The parties that opposed this decision were China and the Pacific Island communities. The decision besides met the outrage of civilian society groups in the most affected prefectures specified as Fukushima, Iwate and Miyagi.
According to the nipponese government's plan, the tunnel, which was completed in April of this year, will lead the polluted water from Fukushima's shot down atomic power plant to an area about a kilometer from the shore. The full release strategy is almost complete at the time of writing, but for the tank that will store contaminated water before release.
The amount of irradiated water to be dropped would fill about 500 Olympic pools, according to China Daily. The Tohok earthquake and tsunami in 2011 damaged Fukushima power plant cooling systems, causing 3 reactors to melt and release large amounts of radiation. The water to be dropped was utilized to cool the highly radioactive reactor cores.
Expert: The discharge of radioactive water from Fukushima may take 100 years
However, a atomic expert noted that a drop of radioactive water from Fukushima power plant in Japan may last until the next century. Shaun Burnie, elder atomic Specialist at Greenpeace East Asia, presented this forecast at a press conference in April 2023 in South Korea's capital, Seoul.
"These drops can start in July, possibly later and last for many decades" - he said. "Not only 30 years, but possibly 50, 60, 70 or 80 years. The next century is truly possible."
Burnie besides condemned the decision to release the water, arguing that there is adequate retention space close the site of the current decommissioning plant. He considered the drop a deliberate choice to unnecessarily contaminate and contaminate the environment.
The Greenpeace East Asia specialist besides questions the effectiveness of an advanced fluid processing strategy (ALPS) utilized to clean contaminated water before discharge. According to Burnie, about 70 percent of the water in retention tanks inactive requires further processing before release.
Experts stressed that water processed utilizing ALPS is free of radioactive elements. They besides stressed that the tritium, of which tiny amounts stay in the water treated by the Alps, does not pose a threat to human health. But Timothy Mousseau, a biological discipline expert from University of South CarolinaHe begged to differ.
"When the trit gets inside the body, it is at least as dangerous as any another radionuclide" - he said during the same press conference. "The tritium molecule enters inside the cell and ejects the electron. It's like a bullet fired from a gun. This bullet hits something like DNA."
Mousseau added that the high-energy electron moves slowly. It hits different parts of the body, causing "confused damage".
"The consumption is truly the most dangerous. People said the tritium wasn't dangerous, based on fears of external exposure. But utilizing the same argument, you would say uranium-235 is not dangerous.
