Here's the IAEA report: https://www.iaea.org/sites/default/files/iaea_comprehensive_alps_report.pdf
I'm also curious about how much discharge nuclear generators normally produce. If they discharge a certain amount as part of normal operation then it seems to me to also become a function of how many nuclear generators are being operated globally.
The Hongyanhe reactor annually releases 4x as many becquerels of tritium. The Fukushima metldown released 5,000x as much. So this is obviously a non-issue being drummed up due to politics. ๐
