How radioactive is the release??

Without knowing the Bq/m^3 it is useless info.

The scientists studying the matter have chosen the safest method of disposal.
 Quoting: MarPep


Since they have tried to filter it numerous times...

And cand get the tritium out at any level, and wont disclose the the end result.

I would imagine it is quite high.

Nothing will happen. And, here is why: “ The March 2016 holding of tritium on-site was 760 TBq (equivalent to 2.1 g of tritium or 14 mL of tritiated water) in a total of 860,000 m3 of stored water. ”

Now add the 2.1 GRAMS of tritium to the oceans which contain 321,000,000 cubic MILES of salt water.

The half life of tritium is 12 years, it won’t last long.

Tritium is a low energy beta emitter, it is not dangerous externally, it’s beta particles are unable to penetrate the skin.

Finally, there is naturally occurring tritium in the oceans.

So doom off already!

Mercury is a far greater threat to your seafood. You are more likely to die from radiation from living at high altitude.

Edit: I have tritium sights on my pistol. Some people have watches with tritium hands and numbers.

Just in case a global viral pandemic, whose sources are still unclear and apparently now include human feces, wasn't enough, the global outrage meter is about to go "up to eleven" with Japan now set to flood the world's oceans with radioactive water.

In a move that will surely prompt a furious response from Greta Thunberg's ghost writers (unless of course it doesn't fit a very narrow agenda), a panel of experts advising Japan’s government on a disposal method for the millions of tons of radioactive water from the destroyed Fukushima nuclear plant on Friday recommended releasing it into the ocean. And, as Reuters notes, based on past practice it is likely the government will accept the recommendation.

Tokyo Electric, or Tepco, has collected nearly 1.2 million tonnes of contaminated water from the cooling pipes used to keep fuel cores from melting since the plant was crippled by an earthquake and tsunami in 2011. The water is stored in huge tanks that crowd the site.
 Quoting: Don Draper from Nantucket


Done slowly and carefully .. ita a good idea. its not actually that much... otherwise maybe fleet will cart it to the sun if permitted which will take care of it.

Russia might be able to help too.. they have been given technology on this sort of thing.

Big Plans For Small Nuclear Plants
Bruce Gellerman September 18, 2019

[link to www.wbur.org (secure)]


The United States produces more electricity from nuclear power than any other nation. Twenty percent of the nation's total electricity comes from nuclear, representing around half of our carbon-free electricity.

Kimmel says we can't afford to lose safely operating nuclear plants before there are carbon-free alternatives. But bailing out financially troubled nuclear plants is expensive. When reactor operators recently threatened to shut down plants in five states, ratepayers bailed them out. The costs could come to more than $15 billion.

"For nuclear, historically we always start with, 'What about the waste? What about the safety? What about proliferation?' And those are important issues we have to address," says Buongiorno. "But first, let's see why you'd want to mess with this technology to begin with."

Here's why: Just 97 U.S. nuclear power plants produce 20% of the nation's electricity — and more than half of our low-carbon power. Most were built over 40 years ago and many are scheduled for shutdown. Only one new reactor has been licensed in a quarter century.

"That has to change because we have a have a big problem, which is climate change," says Buongiorno. "And nuclear can be a big, big part of the solution."

---

At 76 feet high and 15 feet in diameter, a self-contained NuScale reactor would take up just 1% of the space of a conventional reactor. Buried deep in the earth and surrounded by millions of gallons of water, one reactor could power a remote region. Twelve modular reactors, stacked up like beer cans in six packs, could serve a city.

"The minute you get rid of two-thirds of the stuff, there's less stuff to buy and install, less stuff to operate and maintain, less stuff to break and go wrong," says Colbert. "It becomes safer, more cost-effective, easier to build."

To save on construction costs, NuScale plans to use a standardized design, mass producing modules in factories, transporting them to sites, and installing them in the ground. Colbert says they'll also be cheaper to operate.

"We're going to make nuclear cool again," says Perry. "For 30 years we've let nuclear sit there and atrophy."

----

The Russian state atomic energy corporation Rosatom recently delivered a floating nuclear power plant with two small reactors to eastern Siberia. Russian officials say it will be full operational by the end of December.

[link to d279m997dpfwgl.cloudfront.net (secure)]


Greenpeace calls the project "Chernobyl on Ice," warning of collisions with other vessels, terrorist attacks and storms. The Russian nuclear agency calls the concerns "unfounded" and says the floating reactors offer "clean, green, stable energy."

China has also announced plans to launch a fleet of up to 20 floating nuclear power plants. Construction of the first is set to begin soon.

A small team at MIT has been studying the feasibility of a similar idea. Buongiorno says the plan calls for building small reactors in shipyards then towing the nuclear platforms offshore where needed.

"It becomes a 'plug and play' energy source," says Buongiorno. "You build it, you float it out to the site and provide electricity. But if there is a more profitable site you simply move your power plant there."

The United States military did something like this 50 years ago, anchoring a reactor aboard a barge on a lake in Panama to power canal locks during a decade-long drought.

Now, as the climate rapidly changes, proponents of nuclear power say it's time to get back to the future. But former Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chairman Gregory Jaczko is dubious, saying that more mini-reactors on sea and land will mean more nuclear accidents.

I think we should decommission our nuclear plants that are aged and onland here in our Nation as permanent structure.
We have been inching closer to much larger the earthquakes and tsunamis, not to mention volcanic eruptions.
Even the talk about terrorist attacks upon them can be them upon our National land here in our Nation, which would be the same if they were on water.
That is what Millitary is for to prevent such from happening, they are the watchers of such things as terrorist movements and actions.

If we made them that were able to be moved then we could move them at the first subtle sign of threat to them, moving them outside the threat zone and to a safer place.
That is not an option when cemented in as a permanent land structure within a Nation.


Great idea it is to make them mobile.
The most precious things are the simple things in life, always present in the simplest of minds.

1.2 million tons is literally not even a drop in the bucket.

It will be diluted so much as to not matter.

Been 9 years and the Cs147 levels in seawater are still barely elevated ( and sometimes not at all) from pre-Fukushima levels---and still less than 5% of the levels measured back in the 1960s from nuclear bomb testing in the Pacific.

Not an ELE.
