Japan announced that it would discharge nuclear waste water into the sea, which caused controversy. Where should nuclear waste go?
It should be clear to everyone that the nuclear sewage produced by the nuclear leak in Japan will be discharged into the sea, which has also caused widespread controversy. Many people in Japan and abroad are fighting the epidemic, mainly for the sake of food safety in the ocean and the safety of the surrounding people.

However, the Japanese government has decided to require the Japanese electric power company to purify the nuclear sewage to be discharged within two years before discharging it. This incident has also aroused many people's protests, including some international protection organizations on the island of Japan and internationally, and they have come forward one after another, hoping that the Japanese government can think twice. In fact, as far as the current law is concerned, it is actually possible to restrict Japanese companies from making such decisions, but such decisions may be difficult and may require the joint control of many countries.

So why resist Japan's discharge of nuclear sewage into the sea? The main reason is that its radioactive elements are too strong. According to the calculation of a German marine science and technology company, most of the Pacific Ocean will be covered within 57 days, and it will have an impact on the United States and Canada two years later, which will have a great impact on the life safety or biodiversity of the global oceans. Especially for the population of neighboring coastal countries, it will cause certain life safety. We can refer to the Chernobyl incident in Belarus. Its nuclear radiation has not completely dissipated yet, and it will take many years to open to the outside world. Then it would be irresponsible to see Japan discharge nuclear sewage in this short period of more than ten years.

Well, how to deal with it as nuclear waste? In fact, there are four aspects: 1 is recovery and purification, some nuclear fuels that are useless or not used up at present, the second is the purification and purification of some nuclear fuels produced by zinc, the third is the extraction of useful fission products, and the fourth is the safe disposal of final radioactive materials. In fact, the biggest reason for this disposal is that its economic benefits are very high, and we all know and reflect that the cost is very high. If we protect it like this,

For some radioactive wastes, including nuclear fuel, there are actually many ways to separate or treat them, mainly according to their material state. If it is gas, it may be discharged to the outside in the later stage, and if it is solid, it may be buried. There must be many specific methods. With the development of science and technology, there must be more ways to deal with it.
