The Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011 became a turning point for the world, although nuclear power is characterized by a very large amount of energy produced from a very small amount of fuel, and the amount of waste produced during this process is relatively small, the accident caused a loss of public confidence, not only in nuclear safety but in comprehensive energy policy. once the environment is contaminated, it takes many specialized technologies, and large amounts of resources and duration to clean-up the environment. To protect humans from harmful effects of radionuclides released to the environment, one needs to holistically and systematically consider the environmental remediation of the contaminated sites and eliminating relevant pathways to humans.
