  The free electron laser (FEL) facility at Budker INP is being developed for more than 15 years. It is based on the normal conducting CW energy recovery linac (ERL) with rather complicated magnetic system lattice. Up to now it is the only one in the world multiorbit ERL. It can operate in three different regimes providing electron beam for three different FELs. Its commissioning was naturally divided in three stages. The first stage ERL includes only one orbit placed in vertical plane. It serves as electron beam source for terahertz FEL which started working for users in 2003. Radiation of this FEL is used by several groups of scientists including biologists, chemists and physicists. Its high peak and average powers are utilized in experiments on material ablation and biological objects modification. The second stage ERL is composed of two orbits located in horizontal plane. The second stage FEL is installed on the bypass of the second orbit. The first lasing of this FEL was achieved in 2009. The last stage ERL will include four orbits. Its commissioning is in progress now. In this paper we report the latest results obtained from the operating FELs as well as our progress with the commissioning of the two remaining ERL beamlines. We also discuss possible options for the future upgrade.

  Radio-frequency electron accelerators ILU have electron energy range 0.8-10 MeV and beam power up to 100 kW. ILU are compact and reliable accelerators with pulse beam. These accelerators are using for polymer modification and sterilization of medical goods. ILU-8 accelerator with maximum electron energy of 1 MeV with local radiation shielding can be installed in existing buildings or inexpensive new modern buildings. BINP permanently modifies accelerators to suit new trends in radiation technologies. Newly developed ILU-14 accelerator as well as ILU-10 accelerator with increased energy and relative big power are used for radiation sterilization by electron beam and X-rays.
