2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。
日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。
日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。
事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。
因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。
日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。
《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。
德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。
日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。
国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。
太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。
Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business
By John Lee
(ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year.
Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business.
The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year.
The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public.
In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run.
Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public.
The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution.
The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community.
The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses.
According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan.
As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment.
However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact.
Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad.
The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies.
If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
【网络强国这十年】志翔科技蒋天仪:“跨向”新赛道,有偶然也有必然****** 【网络强国这十年——行业回顾篇】 传统模式下,电力公司主要依照“首次强制检定、限期使用和到期轮换”的计量法律法规和检定规程措施规定来进行智能电表的运行管理。 这种方式需要耗费大量的人力物力,且在高效解决智能电表运行期内状态监测和评估问题方面,还有较大提升空间。为此,志翔科技发挥自身大数据分析技术优势,推出了智能电能表状态评价与更换产品,帮助电力企业解决电表状态评估和失准分析等难题,让智能电能表的检定和轮换由传统人工拆回或现场检定、“8年到期轮换”,转变为在线实时诊断和有针对性的“失准更换”。 近日,志翔科技总裁蒋天仪做客光明网“网络强国这十年”专栏,畅谈大数据技术如何助力电力行业进行数字化转型。 在2014年志翔科技初创时,团队定位于通过大数据技术切入安全领域。此后,经过两年时间的不断打磨,产品初见成效,并开始向更多行业进行市场拓展。 谈及为什么从数据安全赛道“跨”到工业互联网领域、深耕电力行业,蒋天仪表示,存在“偶然中的必然”。 他介绍,最初接触电力行业的需求后,团队发现相比数据安全,这个行业在通过数据采集和挖掘分析,来应用于业务风险管控和精细管理、提质增效等方面,如计量器具误差分析、窃电防范、线损治理等问题上有着迫切和现实的需求。因此,出于对电力市场和其未来可延伸的工业大数据分析领域增长空间的看好,志翔科技作出了在电力大数据方向上延展和加大投入的决策。志翔科技的安全产品平台,原本就基于大数据架构和底层技术平台自主研发设计,经过几年在安全领域应用的不断打磨迭代,底层大数据分析平台已具备精细化分析海量电力大数据的潜力和能力。在此基础上志翔开始大力投入于电力业务的学习和理解。从2016年起开始了数据模型结合实际业务验证的不断迭代和优化,最终以智能电能表的失准分析作为切入点,打开了电力行业的大门。并以此为起点,利用失准分析同源技术,开始逐步在电力、泛电力和能源等其他领域的大数据分析领域取得拓展成果。 电表的准确计量既关乎电费结算,又影响着各项电力技术经济指标的正确计算以及电力工业的健康发展。据了解,过去为保证电力计量的准确和安全、实现用电结算公平公正,国家计量主管部门规定,民用智能电能表以8年固定周期进行检定和更换。蒋天仪告诉记者,全国现有约6亿只在运行智能电表,按照8年到期更换要求,平均一年需换表近8000万只,所需资金投入则超过百亿元。而拆卸下来的电表,据之前某地区部分抽检的数据显示,只有不到千分之五的概率是故障的。“一刀切”式的到期更换工作,给电力企业带来在资金、人力、物力等方面的巨大投入和消耗。 2018年,志翔科技推出智能电能表状态评价与更换第一代产品。“通过分析这些用电数据,可以远程发现什么地方的电表有问题,有问题再去有针对性的检测更换,避免造成浪费。”蒋天仪说,目前,该产品已服务于全国30多个网省超过5亿只电表,极大改善了原有的智能电能表状态评估模式,在不停电的情况下在线对智能电能表进行检定,发现运行误差,每年为电力企业节省数十亿换表和运营成本,同时减少数千吨电子垃圾。 “行业发展已从过去的‘粗放型’转变成‘精细化’。精细化发展的前提是对业务数据以及业务状态有更加精确的了解,才可以做到更好的数字化管理。”在蒋天仪看来,电力行业是大数据应用的优质沃土,电力市场蕴藏着丰富数据价值待挖掘。 监制:张宁 李政葳 采访/撰文:李飞 孔繁鑫 后期:刘昊 (文图:赵筱尘 巫邓炎) [责编:天天中] 阅读剩余全文() ![]() 历峰彩票地图 |
