  1. 1. The interaction of dissolved hydrogen with α-radiolytic oxidants during nuclear fuel dissolution

    Author : Lovisa Bauhn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; α-radiolysis; MOX; hydrogen effect; bromide; gas mass spectrometry; SIMFUEL;

    Abstract : Used nuclear fuel contains radiotoxic elements that will need to be kept isolated from the biosphere over a time period of 100 000 years. The KBS-3 geological storage concept aims to prevent the migration of radionuclides into the environment by different engineered barriers. READ MORE

  2. 2. Radiation induced dissolution of model compounds for spent nuclear fuel : mechanistic understanding of oxidative dissolution and its inhibition

    Author : Sara Nilsson; Mats Jonsson; Lara Duro; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis is focused on radiation induced oxidative dissolution of UO2, Pd-doped UO2, SIMFUEL (as model substances for spent nuclear fuel) and UN (a possible future fuel) and inhibition of the oxidative dissolution. H2O2 is assumed to be the most important oxidant for spent nuclear fuel dissolution under deep repository conditions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Oxidative dissolution of UO2 by α-radiolysis

    Author : Niklas Hansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrogen effect; kinetics; MOX; α-radiolysis; dose rate; UO2; ε-particles;

    Abstract : To prevent the spread of radiotoxic nuclides in the environment, spent nuclear fuel generated by decades of nuclear power operation must be safely stored for at least 100 000 years. The KBS-3 method is a highly developed deep geological repository concept and is the first final repository design for high-level nuclear waste to be constructed. READ MORE
