  • 2014:17 Technical Note, Assessment of radiological effects on non-human biota –Main Review Phase

    This report presents a review of SKBs assessment of the long-term radiological effects on plants and animals of a deep geological repository as described in SKB report TR-10-08. The SKB report is one of a number contributing to the overall safety assessment, referred to as SR-Site, for the repository. The conclusion of the SKB report was that the ‘study gives no reason to assume that any of...

  • 2014:23 Technical Note, Workshop on Rock Mechanics Issues and their Implications for Groundwater Flow – Main Review Phase

    This report describes the outcome of the workshop organized by SSM on Rock Mechanics and Hydrogeology that was held in Stockholm on the 30/9 and 1/10, 2013. The report summarizes the issues discussed and extracts the essential viewpoints that have been expressed. It should not be considered as a comprehensive record of all the discussions at the workshop and individual statements made by...

  • 2014:22 Technical Note, Workshop on seismic hazard at Forsmark

    This report describes the outcome of the workshop organized by SSM on seismic hazard at Forsmark that was held in Stockholm on the 4 and 5 of June, 2013. The report summarizes the issues discussed and extracts the essential viewpoints that have been expressed. It should not be considered as a comprehensive record of all the discussions at the workshop and individual statements made by...

  • 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...

  • 2011:34 Evolution of hydrogen by copper in ultrapure water without dissolved oxygen

    One result from this research was that the experimental difficulties of repeating Hultqvist and co-workers work are considerable and were initially underestimated. The main challenge was to obtain satisfactory tightness of all connectors involved in the experimental set-up. The problems with leakage resulted in that the research program originally planned for in this project had to be reduced...

  • 2012:13 Technical Note, A review of the creep ductility of copper for nuclear waste canister application

    SKB has presented insufficient evidence to justify their position that the OFP copper has an adequate creep ductility during long term storage. Their large body of experiments only serves to prove that the creep ductility is sufficient for much shorter time spans than the intended storage times. There is a clear need for a credible theory of creep brittleness of OFP copper which will permit...

  • 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...

  • 2023:11 Study of degradation of spent fuel’s structural material and core components under long-term wet storage

    SSM perspective Background Sweden is managing the spent nuclear fuel and core components from its commercial nuclear reactors with a national strategic plan. The fuel and core components are initially stored at the reactor site. After an on-site storage period to comply with transportation limits on decay heat and radiation, these materials are shipped to the Clab (Central Interim Storage...

  • 2023:14 Effect of gamma-irradiation on the redox states of the structural iron in bentonite clay

    SSM perspective Background Bentonite clay is used as buffer and backfill material which form engineered barrier in the spent fuel repository. The buffer material surrounding the copper canister will be exposed to gamma and neutron radiations, especially during the first few hundred years after closure of the repository. The redox states of the structural iron in montmorillonite, the dominant...

  • Fortsatt negativ utveckling för miljömålet Säker strålmiljö

    Miljömålet Säker strålmiljö är svårt att uppnå till år 2030. Hudcancerfallen fortsätter att öka och det finns ingen plan för slutförvaring av icke-kärntekniskt radioaktivt avfall. Det konstaterar Strålsäkerhetsmyndigheten i sin årliga uppföljning av Sveriges miljökvalitetsmål.
