  • 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...

  • 2011:10e Review and evaluation of the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company’s RD&D Programme 2010. Statement to the Government and summary of the review report

    In accordance with Section 25 of the Ordinance (1984:14) on Nuclear Activities (Nuclear Activities Ordinance), the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) shall review and assess the research, development and demonstration programme (RD&D programme) that the reactor licensees are obligated to establish in accordance with the Act (1984:3) on Nuclear Activities (Nuclear Activities Act).

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 2009:28 Biogeochemistry of Redox at Repository Depth and Implications for the Canister

    The present groundwater chemical conditions at the candidate sites for a spent nuclear fuel repository in Sweden (the Forsmark and Laxemar sites) and processes affecting its future evolution comprise essential conditions for the evaluation of barrier performance and long-term safety. This report reviews available chemical sampling information from the site investigations at the candidate...

  • 2010:05 Discrete-Feature Model Implementation of SDM-Site Forsmark

    SSM has been following the investigations of the two candidate sites for a repository for spent nuclear fuel that the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) have been undertaking. SKB has reported the results of the investigations as site descriptive models. These models will be used to underpin the safety analysis following the license application of the repository planned...
