韩政府:日本核污染水排海满一年,核辐射未超标
首尔,8月21日 – 韩国政府今日表示,日本启动福岛核电站污染水排海已满一年,其间没有发生任何核辐射安全值超标的事件。
韩国国务调整室国务第一次长金钟文在书面简报中指出,自日本政府开始排放核污染水以来,已进行了7轮正常的排放,目前正在进行第8轮排放。韩国政府自去年8月24日首次排放至今年8月19日期间,共进行了4.9633万次核辐射检验。检查结果显示,未发现任何核辐射超标的事例,并且也没有出现水产品消费减少、抢购囤积等国民担忧的现象。
金钟文强调,韩国政府将继续密切监测日本排海计划的执行情况,全力确保国民健康和安全。
据悉,自去年8月24日起至今年7月,东京电力已将5.5万吨核污染水分7次排入福岛核电站前的大海里。本月7日至25日,东京电力进行第8轮核污染水排放,排放量约为7800吨。
尽管韩国政府表示核辐射未超标,但部分民众仍对日本核污染水排海存有担忧。韩国政府表示,将继续加强监测,并向公众提供透明的信息,以缓解民众的担忧。
背景
2011年3月11日,日本发生9级地震和海啸,导致福岛第一核电站发生严重事故。事故造成大量放射性物质泄漏,并产生大量核污染水。日本政府决定将经过处理的核污染水排放入海,引发了国际社会的广泛关注和担忧。
专家观点
一些专家认为,日本政府的排海计划存在安全风险,可能会对海洋环境和人类健康造成负面影响。他们呼吁日本政府采取更安全、更负责任的处理方式。
另一些专家则认为,日本政府的排海计划经过了严格的评估,排放的核污染水经过处理后,其放射性物质含量已降至安全标准以下。他们认为,排海是目前最可行的处理方案。
国际反应
日本核污染水排海计划引发了国际社会的广泛关注和争议。一些国家和地区对日本政府的排海计划表示担忧,并要求日本政府提供更多信息,并采取更安全的处理方式。
日本政府则表示,排海计划符合国际标准,并已采取了必要的安全措施。他们呼吁国际社会理解和支持日本的行动。
未来展望
日本核污染水排海计划将持续数年,其对海洋环境和人类健康的影响仍需进一步观察和评估。国际社会将继续关注日本政府的排海计划,并要求日本政府采取负责任的行动,确保海洋环境和人类健康安全。

South Korea: No Radiation Levels Exceed Limits After One Year of Japan’s Wastewater Discharge
Keywords: One year of discharge, radiation levels within limits, South Korean government
Seoul, August 21 – The South Korean government today stated that no instances of radiation levels exceeding safety limits have been recordedsince Japan began discharging treated wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear power plant one year ago.
In a written briefing, Kim Jong-moon, the first minister of theOffice of Government Policy Coordination, noted that seven rounds of normal discharge have been completed since the Japanese government began the process, with the eighth round currently underway. From the first discharge on August 24, 2022, toAugust 19, 2023, the South Korean government conducted 49,633 radiation tests. The results revealed no instances of exceeding safety limits, and there have been no reports of decreased seafood consumption or panicbuying among the public.
Kim Jong-moon emphasized that the South Korean government will continue to closely monitor the implementation of Japan’s discharge plan to ensure the health and safety of its citizens.
According to reports, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) has discharged 55,000 tons of treatedwastewater in seven separate releases into the ocean off the Fukushima nuclear plant from August 24, 2022, to July 2023. The eighth round of discharge, from July 7 to 25, 2023, involved approximately 7,800 tons ofwastewater.
While the South Korean government asserts that radiation levels remain within safe limits, some members of the public remain concerned about the discharge of treated wastewater from Fukushima. The government has pledged to continue its monitoring efforts and provide transparent information to the public to alleviate these concerns.
Background
On March 11, 2011, a magnitude 9 earthquake and subsequent tsunami struck Japan, leading to a severe accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The accident resulted in the release of significant amounts of radioactive material and the generation of large volumes of contaminated water. The Japanese government decided to discharge treated contaminated water intothe ocean, sparking widespread international concern and apprehension.
Expert Opinions
Some experts believe that the Japanese government’s discharge plan poses safety risks and could negatively impact the marine environment and human health. They urge the Japanese government to adopt safer and more responsible disposal methods.
Other experts contend that the Japanese government’s discharge plan has undergone rigorous assessments, and the discharged contaminated water, after treatment, contains radioactive material levels below safety standards. They argue that discharge is currently the most feasible disposal option.
International Response
The Japanese government’s plan to discharge treated contaminated water has drawn significant international attention and controversy. Some countriesand regions have expressed concerns about the plan, demanding that the Japanese government provide more information and adopt safer disposal methods.
The Japanese government maintains that the discharge plan adheres to international standards and that necessary safety measures have been implemented. They appeal for international understanding and support for Japan’s actions.
Future Outlook
The discharge of treated contaminated water from Fukushima is expected to continue for several years. The impact on the marine environment and human health remains to be observed and assessed further. The international community will continue to monitor the Japanese government’s discharge plan and demand responsible actions to ensure the safety of the marine environment and human health.
