| Publication Abstract: | High energy electron beam irradiation is capable of removing the manufactured organic compounds which are hard to be degraded by the conventional wastewater treatment methods. This paper utilizes FLUKA code to evaluate the electron beam-wastewater interaction effects with different energy, space and divergence distributions of the electron beam. With 8 MeV average energy, the electron beam exits from a 0.0127 cm thick titanium window, travels through a 4.3 cm distance air and a sec-ond 0.0127 cm thick stainless sample container window with 2.43 cm radius, and finally is injected into the sam-ple area, where the volume of container is around 75 cubic cm. The distributions of the electron beam are from the GPT (General Particle Tracer) simulations for the UITF (Upgraded Injector Test Facility) in Jefferson lab. By varying the parameters of the electron beam, the dose distributions through the water, the contributions from the electrons and bremsstrahlung photons are scored and compared. It is found that the spatial uniform electron beam results in the most uniform dose distribu-tion and the electrons are the main source for the dose. In addition, the electron differential fluence through the multiple planes of the water are carried out, which pro-vides the base for the further electron beam requirements study. | ||
