Tritium density in seawater spiked triple times higher in 5 days, “2,200,000 Bq/m3″

(Before It's News)

According to Tepco, Tritium density increased to be three times higher within 5 days.

Having measured extremely high level of Tritium from groundwater, they are analyzing seawater.

From the sample of 7/1/2013, they measured 2,200,000 Bq/m3 of Tritium. It was 760,000 Bq/m3 from the sample of 6/26/2013.

(cf, [Tritium overflow] Tritium detected from 11 locations in the sea, average 340,000 Bq/m3 [URL])

The sampling location is North side of reactor1~4 water intake channel.

They took a sample from the same location on 7/3/2013 as well but the results are still “under analysis”.

In this test, Tepco entirely excluded Strontium-90 from the nuclides to analyze for some reason. We cannot know Strontium-90 density of seawater.
