Why does nuclear waste appear here?

I'm talking about the electrolyzers. Sometimes it just starts to pool there. 

The electrolyzers seem to overheat sometimes (I'll fix that soon), but instead of water trickling out on the floor, it's nuclear waste. The whole thing is pretty close to the surface, but as you can see the radiation from space ends at the insulation under the hydrogen generator.

I would suggest checking from where you are pumping water to electrolyzers... If somehow liquid nuclear waste gets to electrolyzer it will spill out and damage electrolyzer. I had similar issues when accidentally get PW to electrolyzers.

Better question how nuclear waste got into your water source... Maybe you have beetas running freely and dying in your base because of warmth, then solid nuclear waste falling into water, melting and getting pumped to electrolyzers... Or you have radbolts collisions somewhere above your water source... Can't think more of different ways to get nuclear waste to electrolyzers.

I fixed the electrolyzers and checked my water pool. Turns out I ordered duplicants to store solid nuclear waste in the underwater bins, along with oxylite and polluted dirt. The pool varies in temperature so it might have melted and got pumped. 

Thank you for help, I didn't even think this was an option
