Description

Radiation processing technology started in Tunisia by the installation of a pilot plant gamma irradiator in 1999 and an electrons beam accelerator in 2009 at the National Centre for Nuclear Science and Technology (CNSTN). These facilities are established with the support of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in the frame of the technical co-operation assistance program. The electrons-beam facility is equipped with Circe III Linac electrons beam accelerator and a conveyor roller system for industrial applications like sterilization of pharmaceutical single use products.
This work objects is to explore and study electrical pollutions by harmonics in the electrical and electronic networks of the Linac accelerator and to study a solution.
First of all, we will present the problems that can arise in this type of system from external electrical power supply or generated by the accelerator and his peripherals.
Then, a study has been elaborated for an anti-harmonic solutions for different levels; it can be traditional or modern ones such as active filtering.
Finally, theoretical study was reinforced by a simulation to validate solution proposed between passive filtering and active filtering.
