  • 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...

  • 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,...

  • 2014:05 Technical Note, Assessment of flows to deposition holes – Main Review Phase

    SKB’s conceptual model for flow through the fractured rock at Forsmark is based on a division between highly fractured deformation zones (described in terms of deterministic geometry), and the more sparsely fractured rock (described in terms of statistical geometry). The model for the highly fractured deformation zones includes several assumptions that are not strongly supported by data,...

  • 2013:36 Technical Note, Review and assessment of aspects of the Qeq concept – Main Review Phase

    This technical review assignment considers the models and abstractions that Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) developed to represent transport of dissolved constituents in the near field at the Forsmark site, in particular the Qeq abstraction for diffusive transport. SKB uses the Qeq parameter to scale concentration gradients in order to estimate dissolved-species fluxes...

  • 2012:71 Identification of Brittle Deformation Zones and Weakness Zones

    In preparation for the review of Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company’s (SKB) license application for disposal of spent nuclear fuel, Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) is conducting studies to evaluate the performance of the multi-barrier principle on which the KBS-3 concept is based. Copper canisters containing the spent nuclear fuel are placed into granitic bedrock at...

  • 2012:67 Technical Note, Hydrogeological modelling of the Forsmark site

    A modelling study has been conducted using discrete-fracture network (DFN) models in combination with discrete-feature hydrogeological modelling methods for representation of other potentially conductive features such as the disturbed zone around repository tunnels. The principal results consist of hydraulic and transport property estimates for discrete-fracture network (DFN) models on block...

  • 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...

  • 2012:52 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...

  • 2012:42 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...

  • 2012:35 Technical Note, Review of SKB’s Code Documentation and QA for the SR-Site Safety Assessment

    This initial review examined the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) code documentation and quality assurance, which is important to the safety assessment SR-Site because the computer codes used must be both suitable for the analyses performed and capable of producing accurate results for those analyses. SKB has prepared a report that summarizes the code documentation...
