• 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...

• 2014:54 Technical Note, Further Modelling Comparison of Simple Reference Biosphere Models with the LDF Modelling Approach – Main Review Phase

  This Technical Note describes further use of simple reference biosphere models for SSM’s review of the Landscape Dose Factor (LDF) approach adopted by SKB in the SR‑Site safety assessment for the proposed final disposal of spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site.  Simple biosphere models for the Forsmark site under temperate climate conditions were previously developed for SSM’s review and...

• 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...

• 2014:50 Technical Note, A Study of Availability of Fuel Data for Sweden’s Spent Nuclear Fuel

  The study covers all types spent fuel planned to be placed in the final repository. It was carried out by selecting a sample of spent fuel and investigating the information available at the Nuclear Power Plants (NPP’s) in Sweden, the Central interim storage facility (Clab) and Studsvik. The results indicate that the required data is available and can be obtained for fuel unloaded after 1980.

• 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...

• 2014:47 Technical Note, Assessment of groundwater salinity evolution at repository depth and especially the impact of dilute water infiltration

  Groundwater compositions entering deposition holes in the repository will be progressively diluted over time because of expected changes of topographic and climatic conditions at Forsmark.  This is a long-term safety issue because very dilute water could destabilise compacted bentonite and erode buffer, leading to advective movement of sulphide-containing water to the canister surface. ...

• 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...

• 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...

• 2014:43 Technical Note, Workshop on general corrosion of copper

  This report describes the outcome of the workshop organized by SSM on general corrosion of copper that was held in Stockholm on the 26-27th of August, 2013. The report summarizes the issues discussed and extracts the essential viewpoints that have been expressed. It should not be considered as a comprehensive record of all the discussions at the workshop and individual statements made by...

• 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...
