2014:39 Technical Note, “Wormhole” and Multiple Loss of Buffer Safety Function Scenarios
This Technical Notes reviewed the issues that may cause canister corrosion other than the cases evaluated by SKB, which may belong to “What-if” canister corrosion scenarios. This Notes, in particular, addressed two potential canister corrosion scenarios: “wormhole” formation and loss of multiple buffer safety functions. The “wormhole” scenario was hypothesized during the SSM Workshop on...

2014:30 Modelling Approaches to C-14 in Soil-Plant Systems and in Aquatic Environments
Substantial expertise on carbon biogeochemistry already exists in the fields of plant physiology and aquatic ecology and therefore is it beneficial to draw on this to identify the important issues. A paper describing the BIOPROTA C-14 model inter-comparisons, and plans for the forward programme was published in Radiocarbon Journal. Further studies on C-14 (including modelling, model...

2009:30 A Review of Evidence for Corrosion of Copper by water
The planned spent nuclear fuel repository in Sweden relies on a copper cast iron canister as the primary engineered barrier. The corrosion behaviour of copper in the expected environment needs to be thoroughly understood as a basis for the post-closure safety analysis. It has been shown that corrosion may indeed be the primary canister degradation process during the utilised assessment period...

2009:22 Alternative modelling of brittle structures in a sub-area of the SKB candidate area at Forsmark, eastern Sweden
A reasonable understanding of the character of the bedrock hosting a deep geological repository, i.e. the natural barrier, is an important component in the safety assessment of the deep geological repository for spent nuclear fuel. The structures in the rock, together with the regional stress field, affect the mechanical stability of the bedrock and the ground water transport within the...

2009:21 The geological history of the Baltic Sea a review of the literature and investigation tools
The bedrock in Sweden mainly comprises Proterozoic magmatic and metamorphic rocks older than a billion or one and a half billion years with few easily distinguished testimonies for the younger history. For construction of a geological repository for deposition of nuclear waste it is important to understand the late, brittle, geological events to be able to estimate its influence and...

2012:03 The IAEA Integrated Regulatory Review Service Mission to Sweden in February 2012
The Swedish Government decided on January 22, 2009 to mandate the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, to apply for an international review of the Author-ity and its areas of supervision, an ‘IRRS’ (Integrated Regulatory Review Service) carried out by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). On February 25, 2009, SSM made a formal request to the IAEA for an IRRS in Sweden. The time...

2013:37 Technical Note, Rock Mechanics – Evolution of fracture transmissivity within different scenarios in SR-Site – Main Review Phase
The current review assignment consists of a literature review and independent modeling for assessing the importance of fracture transmissivity change especially driven by shear loading due to SKB’s thermal, glacial and earthquake loading scenarios for the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark. In the first part of the report, SKB’s laboratory experiments on shear fracture dilation and extensive...

2011:26 The influence of temperature and fluid pressure on the fracture network evolution around deposition holes of a KBS-3V concept at Forsmark, Sweden
In preparation for the review of SKB’s license application for disposal of spent nuclear fuel, 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 about 500 m depth and embedded in clay. Thus, the rock, the clay and the copper canister...

2011:15 Beräkning av merkostnader 2011 för rivning av de svenska kärnkraftverken och omhändertagande av restprodukter
Denna rapport beskriver SSM:s beräkningar av framtida merkostnader inför avgiftsförslaget för 2012-2014. Beräkningen görs i enlighet med finansieringslagen och avser samtliga merkostnader fram till dess att restprodukterna från de svenska kärnkraftverken är slutligt förvarade. Enligt nuvarande beräkningar antas detta ske 2069. Uppskattningen...

2011:12 Analysis of Barrier Performance: Modelling of Copper corrosion scenarios with and without buffer erosion
The purpose of this project was to develop a numerical modelling capacity to address the corrosion of the copper canister under gradually changing transport conditions caused by buffer erosion and removal of buffer mass. Due to the complexity of this task, such a model cannot be realistic in all respects, but the present effort should address the feasibility of solving numerical and...
