2014:38 Technical Note, Detailed assessment of radionuclide Kd-values for the geosphere-main review phase
The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) is reviewing an application submitted by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) in 2011 to construct and operate a deep geologic repository for spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site in the municipality of Östhammar, Sweden. SKB has presented details of its long-term safety assessment, SR-Site, in a main report (SKB, 2011,...

2014:57 Technical Note, Issues in the Corrosion of Copper in a Swedish High Level Nuclear Waste Repository: Phase III. Role of Sulphide Ion in Anodic and Cathodic Processes
The most important findings of this research project show that: In the case when the bentonite buffer between the copper canister and the granitic rock is not damaged, we can neglect the possibility of general corrosion damage being a threat to canister integrity over a 100,000 year storage period. However, if the bentonite buffer is damaged for any reason, and does not act as an engineered...

2015:08 Technical Note, Rheological properties of the Bentonite Buffer
Rheological properties for bentonite at high densities The properties of bentonite at high densities are extremely important and it appears as it has been to a certain extent well researched and understood, although further investigations regarding swelling of the bentonite would be welcome. What, however, seems to be missing is a comprehensive constitutive model capturing all the different...

2015:37 Models for axial relocation of fragmented and pulverized fuel pellets in distending fuel rods and its effects on fuel rod heat load
Haverifall med kylmedelsförlust (LOCA) i lättvattenreaktorer kan leda till överhettning av bränslestavar, utvidgning av stavarnas kapslingsrör, samt axiell omflyttning av bränslekutsfragment i de delar av stavarna som expanderat. Bränsleomflyttningen kan koncentrera värmebelastningen till en begränsad del av stavarna och därigenom öka risken...

2014:48 Technical Note, Independent assessment of groundwater sulphide content in the long-te
Groundwater sulphide content is a key factor in the determination of canister lifetimes because of its role in corrosion of copper. SKB has based the canister lifetime analysis on a distribution of measured sulphide concentrations which are assumed to apply throughout the long-term analysis period. The distribution is based on expert judgement in the selection of samples that are regarded as...

2014:41 Technical Note, Review of Radionuclide Abstraction and Selection in the SKB Safety Case -Main Review Phase
As part of the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) review of the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) SR-Site safety assessment for a spent nuclear fuel repository in Sweden, this technical note documents the Center for Nuclear Waste Regulatory Analyses (CNWRA®) review of the abstraction and selection of radionuclides in the SKB safety case. Specifically, CNWRA...

2015:22 Technical Note, Further modelling and sensitivity study using the GEMA-Site “alternative biosphere models” and review of material from SKB’s RFI response
Denna rapport har upprättats som en del av SSM:s huvudgranskning av SKB:s säkerhetsanalys av den långsiktiga säkerheten för KBS-3 (SR-Site), en geologisk slutförvarsanläggning, som SKB planerar uppföra i Forsmark. Granskningen tar upp de metoder som används för dosberäkningar i SR-Site, speciellt vad gäller transporter, ackumulering och...
