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...

2012:08 Deterministic Assessment of Future Costs for Dismantling (FA)
In this study a model for advanced deterministic cost calculation has been used to find a parametric value on the cost for dismantling of the FA-facility. The study gives good description of good practise to collect, test and utilise input data in a systematic way in order to make prudent cost estimates for any particular nuclear installation The Swedish Law stipulates that future expenses...

2012:06 Decommissioning Cost Assessment
The future costs for dismantling, decommissioning and handling of associated radioactive waste of nuclear installations represents substantial liabilities. It is the generations that benefits from the use of nuclear installations that shall carry the financial burden. Nuclear waste programmes have occasionally encountered set-backs related to the trust from society. This has resulted in...

2011:34 Evolution of hydrogen by copper in ultrapure water without dissolved oxygen
One result from this research was that the experimental difficulties of repeating Hultqvist and co-workers work are considerable and were initially underestimated. The main challenge was to obtain satisfactory tightness of all connectors involved in the experimental set-up. The problems with leakage resulted in that the research program originally planned for in this project had to be reduced...

2011:10e Review and evaluation of the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company’s RD&D Programme 2010. Statement to the Government and summary of the review report
In accordance with Section 25 of the Ordinance (1984:14) on Nuclear Activities (Nuclear Activities Ordinance), the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) shall review and assess the research, development and demonstration programme (RD&D programme) that the reactor licensees are obligated to establish in accordance with the Act (1984:3) on Nuclear Activities (Nuclear Activities Act).

2011:31 Allocation of Decommissioning and Waste Liabilities
A crucial task for the present generations is to ensure that environmental liabilities are identified sufficiently well so that it may be possible to accumulate the corresponding necessary financial assets in the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund. Adequate funding will provide forthcoming generation’s with the financial means to decommission and dismantle older nuclear facilities that are part of...

2011:26 The influence of temperature and fluid pressure on the fracture network evolution around deposition holes of a KBS-3V concept at Forsmark, Sweden
In preparation for the review of SKB’s license application for disposal of spent nuclear fuel, SSM is conducting studies to evaluate the performance of the multi-barrier principle on which the KBS-3 concept is based. Copper canisters containing the spent nuclear fuel are placed into granitic bedrock at about 500 m depth and embedded in clay. Thus, the rock, the clay and the copper canister...

2011:22 Infiltration of dilute groundwaters and resulting groundwater compositions at repository depth
The planned Swedish concept for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel includes copper canisters placed in deposition holes at about 500 m depth in granitic bedrock. The copper canisters will be surrounded by bentonite buffer with the objective of inhibiting groundwater flow adjacent to the canister. It has been discovered that dilute glacial melt-water may induce erosion of the buffer material.

2011:21 Workshop on spent fuel performance and radionuclide chemistry -Rånäs 2010: Assessment of some outstanding issues
The safety assessment for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel has to comprehensively address the stage when containment barriers have failed and when radionuclide releases occur to the surrounding groundwater at repository depth. Essential processes for estimating risk/dose related to this scenario involve the release of radionuclide from the spent fuel surfaces due to radio-lytic oxidative...

2011:12 Analysis of Barrier Performance: Modelling of Copper corrosion scenarios with and without buffer erosion
The purpose of this project was to develop a numerical modelling capacity to address the corrosion of the copper canister under gradually changing transport conditions caused by buffer erosion and removal of buffer mass. Due to the complexity of this task, such a model cannot be realistic in all respects, but the present effort should address the feasibility of solving numerical and...
