有福島前車之鑑後,外媒很難不關注台山核電廠的後續發展。

“However, concern was significant enough that the National Security Council held multiple meetings last week as they monitored the situation, including two at the deputy level and another gathering at the assistant secretary level on Friday, which was led by NSC Senior Director for China Laura Rosenberger and Senior Director for Arms Control Mallory Stewart, according to US officials.

The Biden administration has discussed the situation with the French government and their own experts at the Department of Energy, sources said. The US has also been in contact with the Chinese government, US officials said, though the extent of that contact is unclear.“

“法國原子能公司先是於5月底聯繫美國能源部,告知台山核電廠有潛在問題,接著在本月3日提出營運安全協助請求,正式要求允許他們分享美國技術援助以解決緊急安全事態,同時告知美國官員,反應爐正在外洩裂變氣體。

之後,根據CNN取得的備忘錄,法國原子能公司於本月8日進一步聯繫能源部,要求加速審查這項請求,內文提到:「現況對廠址和大眾而言是迫切的輻射威脅,法國原子能公司緊急要求技術資料轉移和協助的許可,好讓電廠恢復正常運作。」

CNN報導,文件還顯示,法國原子能公司向美國能源部求援,是因為中國政府機關持續提高這座電廠在不關閉的條件下可安全釋出氣體的上限。美國能源部並未直接回應相關說法。”

"聲明表示,台山核電廠1號機組堆芯共有60000多根燃料棒,目前推算燃料棒包殼破損數量約為5根左右,破損燃料棒佔總數比例小於0.01%,遠低於設計中假設的燃料組件最大破損比例(0.25%)。"

"聲明稱,中國國家核安全局審查批准的是台山核電廠一迴路化學與放射化學技術規範中「反應堆冷卻劑惰性氣體放射性比活度」的相關限值,這個限值用於運行管理,與核電廠外輻射檢測無關。"

有興趣者可以參考國際經濟開發合作組織核能署(OECD/NEA)這份140頁的核能電廠爐心燃料破損與處理經驗文件, 直接從第15頁看起:
