Dismantling of Fukushima radioactive material began
Souce
After facing serious setbacks, the Tokyo Electric Power Company, better known as Tepco, has begun an absolutely crucial operation at the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan. This action marks a decisive moment in the long and complex process of complete dismantling of the plant that was devastated. by the Tsunami in 2011.
The plant houses around 880 tons of highly radioactive material, to put it in perspective that amount is enough to cause devastating impacts if not handled with extreme care, the removal of the debris is one of the biggest challenges in the decommissioning project, A job that will last decades, the robotic arm can extend up to 22 m in length, allowing it to penetrate the reactor and collect less than 3 grams of radioactive material.

Greetings!
The Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan is back in the news.
Thank you for sharing the details about this operation.
Cutting-edge robotic technology that extracts radioactive debris in the decommissioning process.
Despite the gigantic task that will last decades, I hope the impact on nature will be as minimum as expected
