Russia is offering a ‘water cleaner’ used on decommissioned nuclear submarines, to Japan.
State-run Rosatom corporation, which is involved with taking apart old nuclear submarines, has a device that ‘cleans’ low level radiation from water. TEPCo has to periodically release low level radioactive water into the ocean, to maintain operational safety at the damaged Fukushima Daiichi plant.
Also, Reactor 2 continues to dump high level radiation contaminated water into the ocean. However the Russian water cleaner can not handle the higher levels of radiation.
The Russian water cleaner is a 65 meters (213 feet) long floating platform that was build with money from Japan. Rosatom officials say they are ready to tow it to Japan, if requested.
