2012:32 Technical Note, Groundwater Chemistry in SKB’s Safety Assessment SR-Site: Initial Review
This preliminary review of SR-Site is focused specifically on the treatment of groundwater chemistry in the description of the Forsmark site and in the long-term safety of a deep geological repository at Forsmark. Data for the chemical and isotopic compositions of groundwaters have contributed to a site descriptive model (SDM) for Forsmark. In that SDM, groundwater chemistry is interpreted...

2012:17 Technical Note, Corrosion of copper canister
It is expected that the inflow of ground water to the deposition holes and tunnels in the Forsmark repository will be very slow. Thus, it might take some few hundred years up to thousand years before the deposition holes are filled with ground water and it might take 6000 years or more before the bentonite buffer is fully water saturated and pressurized. The copper canisters will therefore...

2012:52 Technical Note, Shear movement of near-field rock due to large earthquakes
The review assignment concentrates on the possible impact of large earthquakes on the shear deformation of large fractures in the repository volume. For this purpose a general review of some of SKB‘s top-level reports was carried out. The reports draw a generally consistent and to a considerable extend comprehensive picture of the potential impact on the repository integrity in case of the...

2012:65 Technical Note, Review of the Nuclear Criticality Safety of SKB’s Licensing Application for a Spent Nuclear Fuel Repository in Sweden
The Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company in 2011 applied to the Swedish government for approval of a proposed solution for disposal of used fuel from Swedish nuclear power reactors and some relatively minor quantities of other fissile material. This Technical Note contains results of a recent nuclear criticality safety review of the overall prospects of the application being able...

2012:42 Technical Note, Initial review of physical properties and processes of the buffer and backfill – Installation and initial state
The technical note briefly summarises the proposed designs and functions of the buffer and backfill, and examines SKB’s progress in manufacturing, installing and testing its proposed solutions. In brief, the review suggests that there are some procedural and practical engineering aspects (e.g., quality assurance procedures, backfilling rates) and several physical processes to do with the...

2012:29 Technical Note, Initial review of chemical and erosional processes within the buffer and backfill – Geochemical processes
De dokument i SR-Site som är relevanta till detta granskningsområde bedöms vara generellt i tillräckligt hög kvalitet för att utgöra underlagsmaterial för vidare granskning i huvudgranskningsfasen av SSM:s GLS- (granskning av långsiktig säkerhet) projekt. Behov av kompletterande information eller förtydliganden har dock identifierats inom...

2012:64 Finansiella aspekter vid avveckling av kärnkraftverk (BWR)
I studien presenteras i vilka situationer som en parametrisk ansats är tillämplig. Resonemang sätts in i en autentisk kontext genom att referenser görs till de förberedande aktiviteter som idag genomförs vid Barsebäcksverket. En tentativ slutsats är att den valda metoden är lämplig för att göra uppskattningar av de framtida kostnader...

2009:33 Workshop on spent fuel performance, radionuclide chemistry and geosphere transport parameters, Lidingö 2008: Overview and evaluation of recent SKB procedures
The safety assessment for disposal of spent nuclear fuel canister in the Swedish bedrock should thoroughly address the time period after a containment failure. Such a failure could be expected as a result of corrosion damage or mechanical failure due to rock movement. This report mainly covers some issues connected to parameters used for radionuclide transport calculations in the areas of...

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...
