	Cornell University has been designing and building superconducting accelerators for various applications for more than 50 years. Currently, an energy-recovery linac (ERL) based synchrotron-light facility is proposed making use of the existing CESR facility. As part of the phase 1 R&D program funded by the NSF, critical challenges in the design were addressed, one of them being a full linac cryo-module. It houses 6 superconducting cavities- operated at 1.8 K in continuous wave (CW) mode - with individual HOM absorbers and one magnet/ BPM section. Pushing the limits, a high quality factor of the cavities and high beam currents (2*100 mA)are targeted. We will present the design of the main linac module (MLC) being finalized recently, its cryogenic features and report on the status of the fabrication which started in late 2012

	On successful assembly and preliminary testing of an optimised SRF cryomodule for application on ERL accelerators, which is being developed through an international collaboration the cryomodule has been installed on the 35 MeV ALICE (Accelerators and Lasers in Combined Experiments) Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) facility at STFC Daresbury Laboratory. Existing cryogenic infrastructure has a capacity to deliver approximately 120 W cooling power at 2 K, but the HOM (Higher Order Mode) absorbers, the thermal intercepts for the high power RF couplers and the radiation shield in the cryomodule are designed to be cooled (to 5 K and 80 K) with gaseous helium instead of liquid nitrogen. As a result the cryogenic infrastructure for ALICE had to be modified to meet these additional requirements. In this paper we describe our experience with the process of integration and the cryogenic commissioning, and present some initial results.

	Efficient damping of the higher-order modes (HOMs) of the superconducting cavities is essential for the proposed energy recovery linac at Cornell that aims for high beam currents and short bunches.

We will review the design, the findings on the prototype and the final choices made for the 7 HOM absorbers being built for the main linac cryomodule (MLC) prototype.
