  • 2007:11 Review of Quality Assurance in SKBs Repository Research Experiments

    SKB is preparing a license application for the construction of a final repository for spent nuclear fuel in Sweden. This application will be supported by the safety assessment SR-Site for the post-closure phase. As a preparation for SR-Site SKB has recently produced the SRCan safety assessment, which is currently in review. The assessment of long-term safety is based on a broad range of...

  • 2007:30 Modelling the Interaction of Low pH Cements and Bentonite

    Concrete and cement are used in constructions as well as in conditioning of waste inrepositories for radioactive waste. It is well known that in the hyperalkaline conditions (pH > 12) of standard cement pore fluids, there is potential for deleterious effects upon the host rock and other EBS materials, notably bentonite, in geological repositories. Low pH cements are beginning to be considered...

  • 2018:12 Upparbetning av använt kärnbränsle med icke-vätskebaserade metoder

    Bakgrund Sverige har en exportlagstiftning för kontroll av utförsel av speciellt känslig utrustning som kan användas för bl.a. tillverkning av kärnvapen. Syftet är att förhindra att någon stat eller organisation införskaffar sådana vapen. Utrustningen det är frågan om har ofta en legitim användning i civil industri men kan ha...

  • 2018:15 Review of Geochemical Data Utilisation in SR-Site Safety Assessment

    The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) reviews and follows associated research related to the Swedish Nuclear Fuel Company’s (SKB) work with establishing a repository for spent nuclear fuel and an encapsulation facility.

  • 2018:08 Calculated radiological consequences of applying European clearance levels to scrap metal from the decommissioning of Swedish nuclear facilities

    Background Many practices involving radioactive substances generate materials with potential or known radioactive contamination. Clearance of materials means a decision that such materials can be released from regulatory control and used or disposed of without restrictions from a radiation protection point of view. According to regulations issued by the SSM, such decisions must be based on...

  • 2013:07 Corrosion of copper in distilled water without molecular oxygen and the detection of produced hydrogen

    In this report, results are presented for copper which has been exposed to pure anoxic water in the temperature interval of 21 °C to 55 °C up to a total of 19 000 hours. Characterisations of copper surfaces after exposure have been performed ex-situ, meaning after termination of the experiment and exposing the specimen to normal atmospheric environment. Ideally characterisation of surfaces...

  • 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...

  • 2011:12 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...

  • 2011:11 Handling Interfaces and Time-varying Properties in Radionuclide Transport Models

    Quintessa’s QPAC code has been used to investigate the Qeq approach. The conclusions from this simulation study are the following. The basic approach to calculating Qeq values is sound, however, narrow channels could lead to the same release as larger fractures with the same pore velocity, so a channel enhancement factor of √10 should be considered. A spalling zone that increases the area of...

  • 2014:52 Beständiga förändringar av säkerhetskulturen

    Projektet har genomförts dels som en litteraturstudie och dels som en intervjuserie vid svenska kärnkraftverk. Litteraturstudien resulterade i en beskrivning av viktiga komponenter inom området säkerhetskultur, faktorer som anses möjliggöra eller förhindra att en god säkerhetskultur uppnås samt metoder och arbetssätt för att utveckla och förbättra...
