• 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...

• 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,...

• 2014:33 Technical Note, Reproduction of SKB’s Canister Failure Calculations - What-If and ‘Residual’ Scenario to Illustrate Barrier Functions

  The Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) included analysis of a range of scenarios in its SR-Site report. SKB grouped these scenarios into two categories—main and residual. The main scenario included a likely scenario (corrosion failure) and a less probable scenario (seismicity-induced shear failure). The residual scenario included two unlikely scenarios—isostatic-load and...

• 2014:17 Technical Note, Assessment of radiological effects on non-human biota –Main Review Phase

  This report presents a review of SKBs assessment of the long-term radiological effects on plants and animals of a deep geological repository as described in SKB report TR-10-08. The SKB report is one of a number contributing to the overall safety assessment, referred to as SR-Site, for the repository. The conclusion of the SKB report was that the ‘study gives no reason to assume that any of...

• 2014:23 Technical Note, Workshop on Rock Mechanics Issues and their Implications for Groundwater Flow – Main Review Phase

  This report describes the outcome of the workshop organized by SSM on Rock Mechanics and Hydrogeology that was held in Stockholm on the 30/9 and 1/10, 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...

• 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...
