• 2010:12 An Evaluation of Models of Bentonite Pore Water Evolution

  The pore-water composition of a KBS-3 bentonite buffer may gradually change as a result of reaction between groundwater and buffer minerals. The rather minor occurrences of the most rapidly reacting minerals in the buffer will have the most immediate and observable influences, but contributions from slow reactions of the main bulk clay phases cannot be ruled out. The performance implication...

• 2010:09 Copper Thermodynamics in the Repository Environment up to 130˚C

  The mechanisms of copper corrosion for a KBS-3 repository for spent nuclear fuel need to be known with a high level of confidence. This is because the overall rate of copper canister corrosion (accounting for corroding species concentrations, geochemical conditions and the mass transport through surrounding barriers) provides an essential performance indicator in safety assessment. A...

• 2009:28 Biogeochemistry of Redox at Repository Depth and Implications for the Canister

  The present groundwater chemical conditions at the candidate sites for a spent nuclear fuel repository in Sweden (the Forsmark and Laxemar sites) and processes affecting its future evolution comprise essential conditions for the evaluation of barrier performance and long-term safety. This report reviews available chemical sampling information from the site investigations at the candidate...

• 2010:05 Discrete-Feature Model Implementation of SDM-Site Forsmark

  SSM has been following the investigations of the two candidate sites for a repository for spent nuclear fuel that the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) have been undertaking. SKB has reported the results of the investigations as site descriptive models. These models will be used to underpin the safety analysis following the license application of the repository planned...

• 2010:18 Radionuclide Transport: Preparation During 2009 for the SR-Site Review

  Post-closure safety assessments for nuclear waste repositories involve radioecological modelling for an underground source term. Following several decades of research and development, the Swedish Nuclear Waste Management Company (SKB) is approaching a phase of license application. According to SKB’s plans, an application to construct a geological repository will be submitted by the end of...

• 2009:35 Evaluation of SKB/Posiva’s report on the horizontal alternative of the KBS-3 method

  The KBS-3 method, based on multiple barriers, is the proposed spent fuel disposal method both in Sweden and Finland. The method has two design alternatives: the vertical (KBS-3V) and the horizontal (KBS-3H). SKB and Posiva have conducted a joint research, development and demonstration (RD&D) programme in 2002-2007 with the overall aim of establishing whether the KBS-3H represents a...

• 2008:03 Myndigheternas granskning av SKB:s preliminära säkerhetsbedömningar för Forsmark och Laxemar

  Detta dokument redovisar SKI:s och SSI:s granskning av SKB:s preliminära säkerhetsbedömningar för Forsmark och Laxemar. Myndigheternas syfte med denna granskning är att bedöma om SKB:s inledande platsundersökningar har tillräcklig omfattning, håller tillräckligt hög kvalitet och omfattar de data som behövs för kommande säkerhetsanalyser.

• 2007:32 Low pH Cements

  Concrete and cement are used in constructions as well as in conditioning of waste in repositories for radioactive waste. The development of low pH cements for use in geological repositories for radioactive waste stem from concerns over the potential for deleterious effects upon the host rock and other EBS materials (notably bentonite) under the hyperalkaline conditions (pH > 12) of cement...
