2012:26 Technical Note, Initial review of chemical and erosional processes within the buffer and backfill - Chemical erosion processes
The SR-Site documentation relevant to this review topic was found to be of sufficiently high quality overall to justify further consideration in the Main Review Phase of SSM’s PCS (Post-closure safety) project. Several specific topics for which complementary information and clarifications should be requested from SKB were also identified (Appendix 2). Specific review topics for consideration...

2011:22 Infiltration of dilute groundwaters and resulting groundwater compositions at repository depth
The planned Swedish concept for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel includes copper canisters placed in deposition holes at about 500 m depth in granitic bedrock. The copper canisters will be surrounded by bentonite buffer with the objective of inhibiting groundwater flow adjacent to the canister. It has been discovered that dilute glacial melt-water may induce erosion of the buffer material.

2010:43 Displacement along extensive deformation zones at the two SKB sites: Forsmark and Laxemar
The Fennoscandian shield is distinguished by that the exposed bedrock is mainly composed of Precambrian metamorphic and igneous rocks older than a billion or one and a half billion years with few easily distinguished testimonies for the younger history. Large parts of the present ground surface closely coincides with a late Precambrian denudation surface; the sub-Cambrian peneplain.

2011:09 Is Copper Immune to Corrosion When in Contact With Water and Aqueous Solutions?
The KBS-3concept implies that spent nuclear fuel is placed in copper canisters surrounded by clay and finally placed approximately 500 m down from surface into granitic bedrock, in order to isolate the spent nuclear fuel from humans and environment for very long time scales (i.e. millions of years). The concept is based on the multi-barrier principle, in this respect the barriers are the...

2010:33 Lineament interpretation Short review and methodology
This report concerns a study which was initially conducted for the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate (SKI), which is now merged into the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM). The conclusions and viewpoints presented in the report are those of the author and do not necessarily coincide with those of the SSM. In the characterization of a site that may have potential for hosting a...

2011:08 Workshop on Copper Corrosion and Buffer Erosion Stockholm 15-17 September 2010
In SSM:s preparation for reviewing SKB:s license application for disposal of spent nuclear fuel, a series of technical workshops have been conducted. The main purpose of this type of workshops is to get an overall understanding of the state of knowledge on interdisciplinary issues as well as of questions in the research front by inviting several experts. Previous workshops have addressed the...

2012:10 Technical Note, Review of the Geomicrobiological Aspects of SKB’s Licence Application for a Spent Nuclear Fuel Repository in Forsmark, Sweden
The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) reviews the Swedish Nuclear Fuel Company’s (SKB) applications under the Act on Nuclear Activities (SFS 1984:3) for the construction and operation of a repository for spent nuclear fuel and for an encapsulation facility. As part of the review, SSM commissions consultants to carry out work in order to obtain information on specific issues. The...

2011:21 Workshop on spent fuel performance and radionuclide chemistry -Rånäs 2010: Assessment of some outstanding issues
The safety assessment for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel has to comprehensively address the stage when containment barriers have failed and when radionuclide releases occur to the surrounding groundwater at repository depth. Essential processes for estimating risk/dose related to this scenario involve the release of radionuclide from the spent fuel surfaces due to radio-lytic oxidative...

2011:07 Workshop on Regulatory Review and Safety Assessment Issues in Repository Licensing
The Swedish Radiation safety Authority (SSM) is currently developing project plans for the review of the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co’s (SKB) planned license application for a spent nuclear fuel repository in Forsmark and an encapsulation plant in Oskarshamn. In support of the development of these project plans, SSM has carried out several international workshops during 2010...

1997:05 SKI SITE-94
The Swedish Industry program for deep geological disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste is now in the early stages of the site selection process, with feasibility studies underway in 5 to 10 municipalities. According to the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co., SKB (SKB RD&D Programme, 1995), the ongoing siting process involves selection of two sites for...
