  Technical Note Om Technical Note Strålsäkerhetsmyndigheten granskade Svensk Kärnbränslehantering AB:s (SKB) ansökningar om uppförande, innehav och drift av ett slutförvar för använt kärnbränsle och av en inkapslingsanläggning mellan 2011 och 2018. Granskningen gjordes mot lagen (1984:3) om kärnteknisk verksamhet (kärntekniklagen).

• 2012:48 Technical Note, Use of Solubility Limits in the SR-Site Safety Assessment

  In a radioactive waste disposal environment, in some potential situations (scenarios) a disposed canister containing spent fuel may be breached and the fuel may come into contact with groundwater. The concentration of a radioactive element such as uranium may rise to a level where the solution is saturated. No more of the radioactive element may dissolve and a precipitated solid may be formed.

• 2012:26 Technical Note, Initial review of chemical and erosional processes within the buffer and backfill - Chemical erosion processes

  The SR-Site documentation relevant to this review topic was found to be of sufficiently high quality overall to justify further consideration in the Main Review Phase of SSM’s PCS (Post-closure safety) project. Several specific topics for which complementary information and clarifications should be requested from SKB were also identified (Appendix 2). Specific review topics for consideration...

• 2011:22 Infiltration of dilute groundwaters and resulting groundwater compositions at repository depth

  The planned Swedish concept for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel includes copper canisters placed in deposition holes at about 500 m depth in granitic bedrock. The copper canisters will be surrounded by bentonite buffer with the objective of inhibiting groundwater flow adjacent to the canister. It has been discovered that dilute glacial melt-water may induce erosion of the buffer material.

• 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.

• 2012:24 Technical Note, Initial Review of SR-Site Main Report

  The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) is reviewing a license application, which has been submitted by Svensk Kärnbränslehantering AB (SKB), for a repository for the final disposal of spent nuclear fuel. SKB’s Application includes an assessment of the long-term safety of the proposed repository. The assessment is known as SR-Site. This technical note records the findings from a...

• 2009:35 Evaluation of SKB/Posiva’s report on the horizontal alternative of the KBS-3 method

  The KBS-3 method, based on multiple barriers, is the proposed spent fuel disposal method both in Sweden and Finland. The method has two design alternatives: the vertical (KBS-3V) and the horizontal (KBS-3H). SKB and Posiva have conducted a joint research, development and demonstration (RD&D) programme in 2002-2007 with the overall aim of establishing whether the KBS-3H represents a...

• 2011:31 Allocation of Decommissioning and Waste Liabilities

  A crucial task for the present generations is to ensure that environmental liabilities are identified sufficiently well so that it may be possible to accumulate the corresponding necessary financial assets in the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund. Adequate funding will provide forthcoming generation’s with the financial means to decommission and dismantle older nuclear facilities that are part of...

• 2011:07 Workshop on Regulatory Review and Safety Assessment Issues in Repository Licensing

  The Swedish Radiation safety Authority (SSM) is currently developing project plans for the review of the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co’s (SKB) planned license application for a spent nuclear fuel repository in Forsmark and an encapsulation plant in Oskarshamn. In support of the development of these project plans, SSM has carried out several international workshops during 2010...
