  • 2012:63 Technical Note, Review of Radionuclide Sorption on Bentonite and Forsmark Bedrock Material

    Denna rapport granskar sorption-data för bentonit och berg vilka har använts i säkerhetsanalysen SR-Site. Det kan konstateras att härledningen av Kd-värden har gjorts på ett systematiskt sätt och att presentationen av resultat är uttömmande. Kontroller visar att härledning och överföring av resultat kan betraktas som spårbar. Det...

  • 2012:58 Technical Note, Independent radionuclide transport modelling – Reproducing results for main scenarios

    As part of the initial technical review of SR-Site, we applied a simplified model to approximate Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) computations related to the transport of radionuclides at the planned KBS–3 repository at the Forsmark site in Sweden. The objective was to provide insights and recommendations to the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) on potential...

  • 2012:60 Technical Note, Handling of climate related issues in the safety assessment SR-Site

    The application is based on research carried out over several decades and is an impressive compilation of data and knowledge of the site of Forsmark. The sections on climate, glaciations and permafrost have developed continuously through the earlier compilations reported (e.g. the SR-97-reports). Much has been improved over the years while new question marks have occurred and some known...

  • 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...

  • 2013:07 Corrosion of copper in distilled water without molecular oxygen and the detection of produced hydrogen

    In this report, results are presented for copper which has been exposed to pure anoxic water in the temperature interval of 21 °C to 55 °C up to a total of 19 000 hours. Characterisations of copper surfaces after exposure have been performed ex-situ, meaning after termination of the experiment and exposing the specimen to normal atmospheric environment. Ideally characterisation of surfaces...

  • 2012:68 Assessment of cost for dismantling of Ringhals 2 PWR

    The Financing Act stipulates that future expenses for dismantling of Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) shall be financed from segregated funds that are supervised by the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund (SNWF). Transparency of and confidence in the process to ensure collection of sufficient funds is fundamental for the acceptance and sustainability of the Swedish model for estimating environmental...

  • 2012:62 Technical Note, Review of the MARFA Code

    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 review SKB’s MARFA code and consider whether the technical arguments and assumptions used for developing the code are sound, appropriate and adequate to support its use in SR-Site. This Technical Note summarises the...
