This was the third seminar on nuclear decommissioning in the last two years. This year’s seminar covered the following lectures, delivered by presenters from organizations: on-site response under severe environments in the Fukushima Daiichi NPS after the tsunami, status of investigation inside the primary containment vessel (PCV) and technology development for fuel debris retrieval, technology development of investigation robots developed by Hitachi-GE, IRID’s member organization, and the current status of contaminated water and radioactive tritium management.
