• 2012:06 Decommissioning Cost Assessment

  The future costs for dismantling, decommissioning and handling of associated radioactive waste of nuclear installations represents substantial liabilities. It is the generations that benefits from the use of nuclear installations that shall carry the financial burden. Nuclear waste programmes have occasionally encountered set-backs related to the trust from society. This has resulted in...

• 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...

• 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...

• 2012:18 Technical Note, SR-Site Independent Modelling of Engineered Barrier Evolution and Coupled THMC: Contribution to the Initial Review Phase

  This review has focussed mainly on the modelling of the Engineered Barrier System (EBS) evolution, which includes coupled thermal, hydraulic, mechanical and chemical (THMC) processes. Additionally, the role of the EBS in the wider safety case was reviewed, including its treatment in scenarios and its representation in conceptual models since this provided the motivation for the modelling work...

• 2012:11 Issues in the corrosion of copper in a Swedish high level nuclear waste repository

  The objective with this research project was to increase knowledge in the area of copper corrosion in the planned repository environment and obtain information on how copper corrosion evolves during the assessment period of 100 000 years. The equilibrium chemical composition of groundwater close to the canister as a function of temperature has been calculated by use of a thermodynamics code...

• 2012:08 Deterministic Assessment of Future Costs for Dismantling (FA)

  In this study a model for advanced deterministic cost calculation has been used to find a parametric value on the cost for dismantling of the FA-facility. The study gives good description of good practise to collect, test and utilise input data in a systematic way in order to make prudent cost estimates for any particular nuclear installation The Swedish Law stipulates that future expenses...

• 2012:15 Technical Note, A review of the mechanical integrity of the canister

  An introductory review of SR-Site has been conducted with respect to the mechanical integrity of the canister. The review is focused on the copper canister and the nodular cast iron insert. Review results show that a number of loads and loading scenarios for the copper canister has not been analysed by SKB. The importance of sufficient creep ductility of the copper material and sufficient...

• 2012:39 Technical Note, Review of Engineering Geology and Rock Engineering aspects of the construction of a KBS-3 repository at the Forsmark site – Initial Review Phase

  In general, the reviewers find that the level of geomechanics data collected and synthesized to date has been impressive in scope and high in quality. The data collected has been incorporated into interlinked analyses concerning construction and operational performance of the repository. There are a number of uncertainties in the data and subsequent analyses that are unavoidable when dealing...

• 2012:33 Technical Note, Review of Groundwater Chemistry in SKB’s Safety Assessment SR-Site

  This initial review examined SKB’s characterization of groundwater chemistry at the Forsmark site and its evolution during long time periods under different possible climates in the future. The review considered whether the geochemical data provided by SKB are reasonable and sufficient and whether the methods used by SKB for projecting geochemical conditions into the future are appropriate.

• 2012:36 Technical Note, Documentation and Traceability of Data in SKB’s Safety Assessment SR-Site: Initial Review Phase

  On 16th March 2011SKB applied for a licence to construct and operate a spent nuclear fuel encapsulation facility in Oskarshamn Municipality and a final repository for the encapsulated fuel at Forsmark in Östhammar Municipality. SKB’s SR-Site safety assessment for the spent fuel repository is currently being reviewed by the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, and its external experts...
