• 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...

• 2012:59 Technical Note, Initial review phase – Dose Assessment Methodology

  This report has been prepared as part of the Initial Review Phase of SKB’s SR-Site performance assessment of the long-term safety of the KBS-3 geological disposal facility (GDF) proposed for construction at Forsmark. The review addresses the methodology employed in the dose assessment calculations of SR-Site. In this respect the review has a natural focus upon biosphere modelling aspects of...

• 2012:46 Technical Note, Review of Landscape Models used in SR-Site

  As part of SSM’s Initial Review phase of SKB’s SR-Site safety assessment for the proposed final disposal of spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site, Quintessa was given the assignment to consider whether the landscape models and supporting data utilised by SKB are appropriate and fit for purpose. This Technical Note summarises the findings of Quintessa’s review. SKB’s approach to the...

• 2012:49 Hydrogeological characteristics of sites for low- and intermediate-level waste disposal

  The Forsmark area with its selected two sites and the Laxemar-Simpevarp area with its two sites are broadly similar in terms of lithology, rock ages, and tectonic histories. The two areas differ in terms of degree of deformation, and tectonic fabric. Some lithologic and tectonic differences are noticeable between the two sites in the Forsmark area and between the two sites in the...

• 2012:48 Technical Note, Use of Solubility Limits in the SR-Site Safety Assessment

  In a radioactive waste disposal environment, in some potential situations (scenarios) a disposed canister containing spent fuel may be breached and the fuel may come into contact with groundwater. The concentration of a radioactive element such as uranium may rise to a level where the solution is saturated. No more of the radioactive element may dissolve and a precipitated solid may be formed.

• 2012:61 Geochemical Constraints on Buffer Pore Water Evolution and Implications for Erosion

  Mineralogical data from the Forsmark Site show that smectite and calcite occur at all depths in Forsmark fractures, with no evidence for removal/dissolution by previous glacial episodes. This natural analogue information implies that these minerals may not have been eroded/dissolved during previous glacial episodes. Available thermodynamic data suggest that repository-depth Forsmark...

• 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...

• 2014:48 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 as...
