This paper describes the industrial electron accelerators of the ILU type and their usage for sterilization. The ILU machines produced by Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics have energy range of 0.8–10 MeV and beam power up to 100 kW, and they are working in industries all over the world. The ILU-10 and ILU-14 machines are described as well as the industrial sterilization facility based on ILU-6, ILU-10 and ILU-14 machines.
