2010:25 Modelling Coupled Processes in the Evolution of Repository Engineered Barrier Systems using QPAC-EBS
Currently in Sweden, the SR-Site safety assessment for a spent nuclear fuel repository is being developed by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB). The planned SSM review of this work requires access to a sufficient modelling capability to assess the combined performance of the engineered barriers (spent fuel canister, buffer and backfill) and the natural geosphere...

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.

2010:24 On Cost Estimate for Decommissioning of one Isotope Central
The present generation has the responsibility to ensure and guarantee that sufficient financial resources are accrued into the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund to cover all future costs. Thus, the next generation, as well as any succeeding generations, will have the financial resources required in order to undertake the necessary measures, in an appropriate manner, for the decommissioning and...

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...

2010:28 GEMA3D – landscape modelling for dose assessments
Post-closure safety assessments for nuclear waste repositories involve radioecological modelling for an underground source term. Following several decades of research and development, the Swedish Nuclear Waste Management Company (SKB) is approaching a phase of license application. According to SKB’s plans, an application to construct a geological repository will be submitted by the end of...

2010:31 Buffer erosion: An overview of concepts and potential safety consequences
In its safety analysis SR-Can, SKB reported preliminary results and conclusions on the mechanisms of bentonite colloid formation and stability, with a rough estimate of the consequences of loss of bentonite buffer by erosion. With the review of SR-Can the authorities (SKI and SSI) commented that erosion of the buffer had the greatest safety significance, that the understanding of the...

2010:30 INSITE Summary Report
SSM and its predecessor SKI employed a team of earth scientists who followed and reviewed SKB’s investigations of the potential spent nuclear fuel repository sites at Forsmark and Laxemar. This group was named INSITE (INdependent Site Investigation Tracking and Evaluation) and began its work in 2002 and completed its task with the review of the final versions SKB’s site descriptive models,...

2011:03 On Decommissioning Cost for Nuclear Power Plants
This research report summarizes what has changed over the latest 15 years concerning actual and estimated costs for the D&D of nuclear power plants that have been shut down permanently. It also reports on the availability of detailed information for actual nuclear power plant D&D cost breakdowns. The results will be one supporting document in the review of the estimates submitted for...

Matkorgsundersökningar
Efter Tjernobylolyckan undersöktes cesium-137 ( 137 Cs) i blandad kost genom matkorgsundersökningar där matkorgens innehåll baserades på Jordbruksverkets konsumtionsstatistik. I undersökningen 1986–1987 fanns relativt stora skillnader mellan olika städer.

2017:15 Radionuclide release rates associated with bounding cases featuring relatively early canister failures in a spent fuel repository
Background In 2011 the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co (SKB) submitted a license application for construction of a geological repository for spent nuclear fuel according to the KBS-3 method, comprising of copper canisters, bentonite buffer, backfill and surrounding crystalline bedrock. The post-closure safety assessment of the repository, SR-Site, has been reviewed by the Swedish...
