Final repository and the reception conditions have been determined. After the reactor was shut down in 1988, safe confinement was planned. However, after radioactive contamination was discovered in the soil and groundwater in 1999, the federal and state governments agreed to completely dismantle it.

on safe nuclear energy. But the dream shattered after numerous safety deficiencies and incidents. In 1978, significant amounts of strontium 90 and tritium leaked from the reactor into soil and groundwater. Both can cause leukemia, and strontium 90 can also cause bone cancer. Nevertheless, the reactor continued to operate at a temperature that was far too high. The final shutdown took place 26...

of the powdery tailings protrudes from the water and is dispersed by the wind, causing it to be lost to extraction and polluting the environment.' Without a seepage seal, the groundwater also becomes radioactively and chemically contaminated. The lake is 12 km from Baotou city center and 10 kilometers from the Yellow River. When producing rare earths,...

THTR Circular No. 136 July 2011
During the water leak, which was classified as a normal accident in 1978, highly radioactively contaminated water from the reactor vessel was pumped out into the ground beneath the reactor and into the groundwater. The specific effects of this contamination remain obscure to this day. About the associated health risks and a possible connection with increased leukemia diseases in...

To date, the Japanese government and the operator TEPCO do not have the situation under control. The destroyed reactors cannot be entered, and radioactive water contaminates groundwater and the Pacific Ocean. This must be kept in mind in order to be able to assess the degree of irresponsibility of the Japanese government in its decision to...

Chunks weighing several thousand tons threaten to break out of the ceiling. Large cracks have formed. Environmentalists fear a cloud of radioactive dust and groundwater contamination if the salt dome were shaken and started to move. Since then, the operators have had to hurry to fill the 20 "mines" with almost 700 cubic meters of hollow space with salt crushed...
