"In Japan the situation is potentially very serious." With these words, the Japanese government has summarized the state of things in the Land of the Rising Sun. A country that was hit by an earthquake of unprecedented violence followed by a tsunami. After 24 hours with the threat of new tsunami and aftershocks continue trying to make up the damage. The budget is worsening by the hour, while increasing the concern about the situation of nuclear power plants. For the World of Health, WHO, officially at least 621 are confirmed dead, while 645 and wounded 1,040 missing. It is, however, provisional results and that certainly will be updated on the upside. This is because the 8.9-magnitude earthquake that struck the Asian country was an act of violence unprecedented in Japanese history. From different areas of the country
Asian multiply in fact, the news increasingly dramatic. At least 9,500 people are missing the call to Minamisanriku in Miyagi Prefecture. Minamisanriku is located about 466 km north of Tokyo. According to several Japanese media, the city was literally blown away by the tsunami that hit Japan yesterday. It is in fact the whole north-east coast to have been swept away. Honshu Island has been submerged by waves that have destroyed more than 3 thousand homes. The Defence Minister said that about 1,800 houses are destroyed, go to Minami Soma, Fukushima Prefecture. While the authorities have spoken of Sendai 1,200 homes swept away by the tsunami. A Rikuzen Takata have been destroyed at least 5 thousand of the total 8 thousand homes. However there are thousands of homes destroyed along the coast. At the time there were no casualties among foreigners, although this eventuality is taken into consideration. The earthquake before and after the tsunami showed severe damage in five prefectures: Iwate, Miyagi, Fukushima, Ibaraki, Aomori. At least 1.4 million households in Japan are without water. In thousands, the Japanese, they form long lines to receive their drinking water is distributed and collected in containers of luck. One hundred tankers have already reached the worst affected areas. About 3 million people are without electricity and the service provider has announced that it will take time to restore service. Meanwhile a team of doctors, nurses and radiation experts at the National Institute of Radiological Sciences in Fukushima was sent as a precaution. The Japanese authorities are ready to distribute iodine to people living near nuclear plants in Fukushima. Iodine, which was also distributed at Chernobyl, used in anti therapies. According to the Jiji Press agency, three employees of central Fukushima Daiichi, where there was an escape, were exposed to radiation. The Japanese government submitted a report all'Angezia UN nuclear watchdog, IAEA, in which to explain the accident happened at the Fukushima nuclear power plant, one of the four involved in the alert nuclear fire in the country. In the document it has been classified as an accident in the fourth degree of international Ines. A scale that goes from the first level, corresponding to an event, until the seventh, matching a serious accident. While the fourth level corresponds to a nuclear accident with consequences such as a local minimum release of radioactive material. The Japanese authorities have informed the IAEA that the reactors were shut down and the population was evacuated within a radius of ten kilometers. The evacuation within a radius of ten kilometers from the center had not yet been completed when there was also an explosion in the installation of central Fukushima I. The explosion caused the collapse of the roof and walls with a consequent spread of ra
dioattività. Now the government has expanded to twenty kilometers radius of the area to evacuate as a precaution. An explosion occurred, fortunately, is of chemical origin, related to the presence of hydrogen reacted with oxygen, and non-nuclear and therefore is not comparable to that of Chernobyl in 1986 because Fukushima Daichi and Fukushima Daini reactors are stopped by 24 hours. The company that operates the plant in Japan's Fukushima, Tokyo Electric Power, TEPCO has confirmed that the explosion did not cause any damage to the reactor vessel of the No. 1 nuclear power plant. Confirmation that also came from the Japanese government which has announced that the explosion of plant Fukushima I did not relate to the reactor and that the radiation level has dropped after the explosion. In the meantime, you are using sea water to cool the reactor at the Fukushima plant I. According to security experts, this procedure is provided by the nuclear safety of nuclear power plants in garanzia del funzionamento del sistema di raffreddamento di emergenza. Un’operazione, quella dello spegnimento del circuito primario che raffredda il reattore, che provoca la formazione di vapore acqueo che esce all’esterno sotto forma di fumo bianco. Il raffreddamento, in condizioni normali, di fatto avviene con l’acqua che circola in continuo attorno al reattore, l'acqua viene vaporizzata e il vapore viene successivamente fatto condensare. Il terremoto ha invece provocato lo spegnimento automatico della centrale e a quel punto è stato necessario scaricare il vapore in eccesso all’esterno nell'atmosfera. Secondo gli esperti è possibile che il vapore rilasciato possa essere debolmente radioattivo. Poichè il rilascio del vapore in excess is part of the safety procedures, the values \u200b\u200bof the radioactive material may be present in the steam within the normal releases approved for use in nuclear power plants. Only in the event of damage to the reactor with smoking may be granted a higher level of radioactive material. But this is not the case of the two plants Fukushimache are just 150 kilometers north of Tokyo and less than 12 km from each other. More than 210 thousand people evacuated as a precaution, around two nuclear power plants in Fukushima Daichi and Fukushima Daini. Meanwhile, the capital of Japan, Tokyo stores, especially those of first necessity, have been under assault as well as there are long lines to distributors di benzina. Molti dei residenti infatti, stanno lasciando la città specie dopo le notizie che giungono da Fukushima. Nel frattempo, gli sfollati si preparano ad affrontare la seconda notte da sopravvissuti al devastante terremoto/tsunami che ha colpito ieri il loro Paese. Sono già circa 21mila le persone che sono state accolte nelle tendopoli che le squadre di soccorso hanno realizzato nelle provincie di Iwate, Miyagi, Fukushima, Ibaraki, Aomori. Purtroppo l'area colpita è situata in una delle zone più fredde del Giappone. Oltre al cibo, medicinali e pannolini mancano le coperte. Da ieri è impossibile utilizzare i telefoni cellulare e la compagnia telefonica NTT ha annunciato d'aver reso gratuito l'utilizzo dei telefoni pubblici nelle zone colpite. In many areas at risk of tsunami, residents spent last night in the military systems that will join the civilian relief workers.
