  • 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.

  • 2012:65 Technical Note, Review of the Nuclear Criticality Safety of SKB’s Licensing Application for a Spent Nuclear Fuel Repository in Sweden

    The Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company in 2011 applied to the Swedish government for approval of a proposed solution for disposal of used fuel from Swedish nuclear power reactors and some relatively minor quantities of other fissile material. This Technical Note contains results of a recent nuclear criticality safety review of the overall prospects of the application being able...

  • 2013:33 Technical Note, Seismology – Frequencies and mechanisms. -Initial review phase

    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...

  • 2012:61 Geochemical Constraints on Buffer Pore Water Evolution and Implications for Erosion

    Mineralogical data from the Forsmark Site show that smectite and calcite occur at all depths in Forsmark fractures, with no evidence for removal/dissolution by previous glacial episodes. This natural analogue information implies that these minerals may not have been eroded/dissolved during previous glacial episodes. Available thermodynamic data suggest that repository-depth Forsmark...

  • 2012:42 Technical Note, Initial review of physical properties and processes of the buffer and backfill – Installation and initial state

    The technical note briefly summarises the proposed designs and functions of the buffer and backfill, and examines SKB’s progress in manufacturing, installing and testing its proposed solutions. In brief, the review suggests that there are some procedural and practical engineering aspects (e.g., quality assurance procedures, backfilling rates) and several physical processes to do with the...

  • 2012:64 Finansiella aspekter vid avveckling av kärnkraftverk (BWR)

    I studien presenteras i vilka situationer som en parametrisk ansats är tillämplig. Resonemang sätts in i en autentisk kontext genom att referenser görs till de förberedande aktiviteter som idag genomförs vid Barsebäcksverket. En tentativ slutsats är att den valda metoden är lämplig för att göra uppskattningar av de framtida kostnader...

  • 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.

  • 2010:43 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...
