  • 2012:11 Issues in the corrosion of copper in a Swedish high level nuclear waste repository

    The objective with this research project was to increase knowledge in the area of copper corrosion in the planned repository environment and obtain information on how copper corrosion evolves during the assessment period of 100 000 years. The equilibrium chemical composition of groundwater close to the canister as a function of temperature has been calculated by use of a thermodynamics code...

  • 2014:55 Technical Note, Further Reproduction of SKB’s Calculation Cases and Independent

    Som en del av säkerhetsanalysen SR-Site presenterar SKB modellresultat som illustrerar kapseln och buffertens säkerhetsfunktioner. I var och en av de fem beräkningsfallen är delar av kapsel och/eller buffert frånvarande i modellen av slutförvarssystemet. Modellresultaten jämförs inte med säkerhetskriterier eftersom beräkningsfallen innehåller...

  • 2012:55 Technical Note, Review of SKB’s Radionuclide Transport Methodology

    As part of SSM’s Initial Review Phase of SKB’s SR-Site safety assessment of the final disposal of spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site, Quintessa has been requested by SSM to consider whether SKB’s methodology to abstract FEPs (features, events, processes), as well as site information and other data, into assessment models for radionuclide transport is appropriate and sufficient for its...

  • 2014:44 Technical Note, Independent evaluation of the number of critical canister positions in the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark – Main Review Phase

    Independent calculations were carried out to estimate Ncrit, the number of canisters in critical positions that can be expected in the proposed repository at Forsmark, based on statistical simulations of SKB's geological discrete-fracture network (Geo-DFN) models, and taking into account SKB's full-perimeter criterion (FPC) and extended full-perimeter criterion (EFPC) to screen out...

  • 2014:46 Technical Note, QA in SKB’s Groundwater Flow Modelling

    The general objective of the project is to provide review comments on SKB’s postclosure safety analysis, SR-Site, for the proposed repository at Forsmark. The specific objective is to get an understanding and an assessment of SKB’s quality assurance of the groundwater flow modelling in connection to SR-Site. The reliability of the results of the groundwater flow modelling depends inter alia...

  • 2012:38 Technical Note, Radiological effects on non-human biota - initial review

    The focus of this review was SKB’s assessment of radiological effects on non-human biota in SR-Site according to present regulations and guidance from SSM and it was conducted by Karolina Stark at the Department of Systems Ecology, Stockholm University. In short, the results from this review show that the completeness of the safety assessment can be questioned regarding considered...
