    Yeah, that’s why I have concerns about constant tritated waste dumping from an active plant. Not so much in this case. It’s a very small amount over a very long time.

    Edit: and in regards to it using it as hydrogen, even in that case, the tritium will likely damage whatever it’s made into and quickly turn back into water.
