The designed e-beam irradiation beamline [1] at Jefferson Lab has been commissioned and applied to study the degradation removal of 1,4-dioxane and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in wastewater by collaborating with Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD), treating wastewater in southeast Virginia. The absorbed dose and dose distribution in the entire sample were achieved innovatively using Monte-Carlo simulations that were calibrated with opti-chromic dosimeter rods directly exposed to the e-beam. This research could be a stepstone to the future MW compact SRF accelerator [2] for wastewater remediation.
