Fuel removal machine for Fukushima Daiichi 3

Fuel removal machine for Fukushima Daiichi 3


 
A system has been developed specifically to remove the pile of machinery and debris atop the fuel pond at the damaged Fukushima power plant in Japan. The system consists of an 81.6-ton fuel handling machine and a 99-ton crane for delivering fuel transfer vessels. The crane can also seal the vessels and move them to the reactor building's ground floor.
