Title Gas cleaning in semiconductor production facilities
Original title Abluftreinigung bei Halbleiterproduktionen [in German]
Bibliographic information July-Aug. 1992, No.7-8, p.58-60. Illus.
Abstract Gaseous chlorine and hydrochloric acid are among the pollutants emitted in semiconductor production facilities. For cleaning the gases emitted by the various semiconductor production methods in use, gas absorption and adsorption are applied. The design of a gas cleaning system comprising two gas scrubbers (absorbers) and one activated-carbon adsorber is illustrated. Recommended safety features include monitors for the composition of the scrubbing fluids, their temperature and pressure.
