thanks to all for the replies.
I wonder why the storage of 2 MIL liters of new radioactive water on site would be so expensive for Tepco. It would be a short time temporary storage of about 15 max 20 years to get down to < 100 Bq/l. No special tanks required I suppose since it is "just" tritium...
Dear all,
I studied nuclear engineering and like to share thoughts about energy issues all the way round from renewables to nuclear.
I am currently interested in nuclear safety , energy policy and tecnology transfer.

Hello there,
maybe I am wrong but I found something inconsistent between the espected tritium concentration in Newly RO Treated Water (6.7 10^4 bq/l --> graph at pag. 16 here) and last measurement published by Tepco on 22th of August at the Water Treatment Facility (1*10^3 bq/cm3)
