Fukushima block 2 heats up to 82 degrees C
Stricken Japan nuclear plant 'heating up'
How has TEPCO responded?
Under Japanese nuclear safety regulations, operators are obliged to begin cooling methods when temperatures rise above 80 degrees Celsius.
Authorities at the Fukushima plant have been pumping more water and boric acid into the feed water system and into the core spray system in attempt to bring the temperature down. Boric acid is included in the water to mop up stray neutrons.
