2020:01 Sulphide-induced stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen absorption incopper exposed to sulphide and chloride containing deoxygenated water at 90°C
SSM perspective Background The concept that the Swedish nuclear power industry plans to utilise for the final disposal spent nuclear fuel is called KBS-3 method, which is based on three different barriers to prevent spreading of radioactive substances: copper canisters, bentonite buffers and the surrounding Swedish bedrock. In the current KBS-3 design, the spent nuclear fuel will be placed in...

2002:18 A Review of Models for Dose Assessment Employed by SKB in the Renewed Safety Assessment for SFR 1
This document provides a critical review, on behalf of SSI, of the models employed by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co (SKB) for dose assessment in the renewed safety assessment for the final repository for radioactive operational waste (SFR 1) in Forsmark, Sweden. The main objective of the review is to examine the models used by SKB for radiological dose assessment in a series...

2002:16 Epidemiologic Studies of Cellular Telephones and Cancer Risk – A Review
Cellular telephones emit and receive radiofrequency (RF) signals between about 450 and 2200 MHz which fall in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. A RF wave from a cellular telephone contains billions of times less energy than an x-ray and is not capable of inducing ionizations or damaging DNA. The rapid and widespread use of this technology, however, has raised concern over...

2002:17 Review of Project SAFE: Comments on biosphere conceptual model description and risk assessment methodology
The Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company’s (SKB’s) most recent assessment of the safety of the Forsmark repository for low-level and intermediatelevel waste (Project SAFE) is currently undergoing review by the Swedish regulators. As part of its review, the Swedish Radiation Protection Institute (SSI) identified that two components of SAFE require more detailed review: (i) the...
