1. Demokrati på delegation. Lokaliseringen av det svenska kärnavfallet
Sammanfattning : The present study concerns the siting of Swedish nuclear waste. Four cases are examined: the feasibility studies in Nyköping and Tierp (cases 1 and 2), as well as three public consultation meetings with conservationist and environmental organisations, and two study visits to nuclear facilities in Oskarshamn and Östhammar, which were held during what is called the site-investigation phase (cases 3 and 4).

2. Studies of Accelerator-Driven Systems for Transmutation of Nuclear Waste
Sammanfattning : Accelerator-driven systems for transmutation of nuclear waste have been suggested as a means for dealing with spent fuel components that pose potential radiological hazard for long periods of time. While not entirely removing the need for underground waste repositories, this nuclear waste incineration technology provides a viable method for reducing both waste volumes and storage times. LÄS MER
3. The Underground as a Storage Facility. Modelling of Nuclear Waste Repositories and Aquifer Thermal Energy Stores
Sammanfattning : The underground is a vast region, which is, too a large extent, unused by man. It has a large potential as a storage facility due to its vastness and availability. This thesis, which consists of eleven papers and reports, deals with nuclear waste repositories in solid rock and with aquifer thermal energy storage systems. LÄS MER
4. Computational Studies of Chemical Interactions: Molecules, Surfaces and Copper Corrosion
Sammanfattning : The chemical bond – a corner stone in science and a prerequisite for life – is the focus of this thesis. Fundamental and applied aspects of chemical bonding are covered including the development of new computational methods for the characterization and rationalization of chemical interactions. LÄS MER
5. Modelling long-term redox processes and oxygen scavenging in fractured crystalline rocks
Sammanfattning : Under de senaste decennierna har i många länder, inkluderat Sverige, långt gångna planer utvecklats för ett djupförvar av högaktivt kärnavfall. Som en del i det svenska förvarskonceptet skall avfallet inneslutas i kopparkapslar som omslutes av återfyllnadsmaterial med mycket låg genomsläpplighet av vatten. LÄS MER
