#Fukushima's Contaminated Wastewater May Be A Bigger Problem Than Realized
Tom Hale, August 2020
"[A] new study published in the journal Science suggests this plan is currently a riskier move than previously assumed.
"Marine chemists at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution argue that #tritium is not the only problem after finding that other isotopes including carbon-14, #cobalt-60, and #strontium-90 still remain in the treated wastewater.
"'The concentrations of these radioactive isotopes are orders of magnitude lower than tritium but highly variable from tank to tank,' the study authors write.
“More than 70 percent of the tanks would need secondary treatment to reduce concentrations below that required by law for their release,' they added."
