The high-power DC accelerator is designed for efficient radiation processing applications, including wastewater treatment, cable irradiation, plastic modification, and pollution control. It operates within an energy range of 1-3 MeV and beam currents of 0-100 mA, utilizing a high voltage multiplier housed in a gas mixture environment for electron acceleration. The accelerator's process has been successfully demonstrated for simulated industrial applications, including wastewater and flue gas treatment. It offers flexible, controlled dosing without the security or disposal concerns associated with radioactive sources, making it environmentally friendly and cost-effective. The technology is safe for human operation, with interlocks and control systems ensuring that any system failure triggers a safe shutdown.
