The accumulation of reservoir sediment is a serious problem in many parts of the world and has severe consequences for water management, flood control, and production of energy. The sediment may be contaminated with pathogens, such as E. coli, saprophytes, Clostridium perfringens, enterococci that pose a threat for human health.
Irradiation of extracted sediment is the most efficient method of antimicrobial treatment. Irradiated sediment may be used as as fertilizer by agricultural companies.

BEAMCOMPLEX EQUIPMENT FOR SEDIMENT IRRADIATION
Beamcomplex manufactures complexes with electron accelerators and other special equipment for reservoir sediment treatment with ionizing radiation (E-beam). Complexes may be placed directly at reservoir sediment treatment facilities.
IONIZING RADIATION TECHNOLOGY FOR RESERVOIR SEDIMENT TREATMENT
Ionizing radiation (E-beam) generated by electron accelerators damages DNA of pathogens thus ensuring safety of the treated sediment as a fertilizer.
Sediments contain a wide range of nutritional elements and can be an excellent fertilizer known as sapropel which is often used in agriculture.
BENEFITS OF RESERVOIR SEDIMENT IRRADIATION
Environment friendly treatment method with no application of chemicals.
The portable complex may be placed in close proximity to reservoirs that allows cutting costs for transportation of sediments for treatment elsewhere.
