The Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Siberian Branch
of the Russian Academy of Science was founded in 1958.
Academician G.Budker was the founder and first director of the
Institute.
There are around 3000 members of the Institute's staff
including 600 researchers, 400 engineers, 900 technicians and
workers, and 900 machinery shop personnel.
• High Energy Physics at colliders VEPP-4M (5 GeV)
and VEPP-2M/VEPP-2000 (1 GeV).
• Synchrotron Radiation researches (SR utilization,
SRS & ID design and production, FEL).
• Plasma physics.
• Industrial accelerators.
B u d k e r I N P
Budker INP main activities
• High-current electron beam (EB)
accelerators are used in diverse industries
to enhance the physical and chemical
properties of materials and to reduce
undesirable contaminants, such as
pathogens or toxic by-products.
• There are >1400 high-current EB units in
commercial use providing an estimated
added value to numerous products of >$85
billion USD or even more. (date from IAEA report)
Industrial Accelerators
Industry demands three basic requirements from
the suppliers of accelerators:
• High beam-current
• Industrial reliability
• Industrial credibility
BINP accelerators satisfy to all
these requirements
• BINP develops and manufactures ELV
accelerators since 1970.
• These accelerators initially were
developed for application in industries
B u d k e r I N P
ELV accelerators
• By now over 140 ELV accelerators had
been delivered inside Russia and abroad.
They are well known in the world. ELV
accelerators are the most popular
accelerators not only in former USSR but
in China and Korea also.
• Total operation time of these
accelerators is over 900 accelerator-
years.
B u d k e r I N P
ELV accelerators
INP proposes a series of electron
accelerators of the ELV-type covering:
•the energy range 0.4 - 2.5 MeV with a
maximum beam current up to 100 mA
and maximum beam power 100 kW
• the energy range 0.6 -1.0 MeV with a
maximum beam current up to 0.5 A and
maximum beam power 400 kW.

The ELV accelerators
are designed with use of
the unified systems and
units enabling thus to
adapt them to the any
specific requirements of
the customer by the
main parameters such as
the energy range, beam
power, length of
extraction window, etc.

Synchronization of accelerator and
technological equipment
• Accelerator is used only together with technology
equipment. Control systems of accelerator and technologies
are combined.
• As accelerator control code are master code, in spite of
technology control code can be more complicate.
• Parameters of processing are controlled from accelerator
control console.
• Usually one accelerator is used for some pay off and take up
devices simultaneously.

99% of EB processing require the beam
power less than 100 kW and only 1%
need the beam power up to some
Megawatts. And this 1% is very
important due to environment
protection.

First in the world installation for EB treatment
of ground water. During 10 years of operation
the problem of decontamination of under-
ground water in Voronez city was solved.
То compete with other processes in economic
evaluation, the electron beam system
should consider following points:
• Reduce the required doses
• Improve efficiencies
• Reduce the cost for Electron Beam
