Ben Greenwood, Senior Manager at Micron Technology’s Chemistry Lab, and Dariana Martinez, Product Application Specialist at Metrohm USA, address the water quality challenges facing the semiconductor industry. Discover how real-time ion chromatography plays a vital role in meeting stringent purity requirements and safeguarding process reliability.
In semiconductor manufacturing, ultra-pure water (UPW) is essential. Maintaining its purity is an ongoing challenge, especially as facilities turn to water recycling in response to global shortages. Transforming wastewater into UPW demands rigorous control, and real-time monitoring is critical. Online ion chromatography provides continuous, high-sensitivity detection of trace ionic contaminants, ensuring both the quality of recycled UPW and the integrity of the final semiconductor products.
