TEPCO Demonstrates New Radioactive Contaminated Water Processing Facilities

OKUMA, JAPAN - OCTOBER 16: A purification equipment, which reduce existing radioactive nuclides, including strontium, is seen at Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant on October 16, 2014 in Okuma, Fukushima, Japan. TEPCO's goal of purifying all highly radioactive water stored by the end of the fiscal year has proven to be increasingly difficult, despite additional steps implemented by the utility. In the water purifying process, cesium is first removed from the water. Then 62 additional radioactive substances, including strontium, are eliminated using ALPS. The first units of ALPS were set up in March last year. As of Oct. 14, 355,000 tons of highly radioactive water from which just cesium has been removed is stored in tanks on the plant site.
