as sewage and greywater treatment since the electron beams penetrate the object at the depth of up to 5 g/cm<sup>2</sup> .

Flexibility of electron accelerators allows using electron beams in diverse areas, such as crosslinking, curing, and grafting of polymers and composites; modification of the material surface; water purification; improvement of material properties; sterilization of medical supplies and instruments; and irradiation of food products [3].

**Table 1** shows the applications of electron beam processing, the combinations of the energy ranges and dose ranges that are used in each application, as well as the beneficial effects used in industry.
