The operator of Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), has launched the third release of treated water, Japanese news agency Kyodo reported on Thursday.
As part of the third treated water discharge, TEPCO plans to release around 460 metric tons of substance per day, which is around 7,800 cubic meters of water to be discharged at a distance of about 1 kilometer (0.6 mile) away from the coast by November 20, the news agency reported.
The company's data shows that the concentration of tritium in the water to be discharged is 55-77 becquerels per liter, which is significantly less than the maximum allowed level of 1,500 becquerels per liter.
