Air & Climate Applications

Anguil customers in the Semiconductor and Electronics industries include chip manufacturers, printed circuit board makers, LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) manufacturers and probimer operations. Each of these processes have unique emission control challenges that all require a custom engineered system designed around the given process parameters. With Anguil`s product breadth our customers are ensured that the proper technology will be chosen.

Without CTP's innovative upstream systems, regenerative thermal oxidation would not be possible, which would render the waste gas purification cost-intensive and inefficient. Continuous burning off in the RTOs eliminates the deposits which periodically clog the ceramic honeycomb blocks.

The CTP desorption allows for an especially high concentration factor which, in turn, reduces the cost of ownership and permits an auto-thermal operation (additional burner switched off) even when the contaminant concentration is low.

The cleaning problem of the heat exchangers was solved. The contaminants were destroyed efficiently and economically while steam for the production process was generated at no additional cost.

The world`s appetite for electronic devices - from simple household appliances to sophisticated computers - has led to rapid growth of both these industries. Typically for the electronics industry, there are large waste gas streams (up to 400,000 Nm³/h) with relatively low concentrations of different solvents. The waste gases mainly occur in coating, cleaning and etching processes during the production of semiconductors, CDs/DVDs, Blue-ray discs, DVTs, TFT-LCD and plasma displays. The electronics industry has important standards to meet regarding environmental protection. CTP complies with these requirements: From zero emission goals, to installations on the roofs of production facilities.

NOx detection is an innovative approach in CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) process control. CMP smoothens the wafer surface with a combined chemical and mechanical polishing procedure. During production, wafers are coated by a thin layer. To avoid damage to the wafer surface, for instance by stress cracks, the NOx emitted as soon as the wafer is plane and blank must be measured. Therefore, a high-resolution NOx-detector, capable of determining exactly when the polishing process must be stopped, is essential. This approach is used successfully in manufacturing and development lines worldwide, since 1996.

ERG`s purpose-designed scrubbing systems are engineered to suit each application and client`s requirements. During the microelectronics boom years in the 1990s, ERG installed a variety of plants treating acid off-gases (HF, F2, HCl, Cl2, etc) with the capability to handle the sticky silanes formed from chlorosilane hydrolysis.

Our cleaners are used in the manufacture of semiconductors, flat panel displays, CDs, DVDs, and many other electronic items.  They remove emulsions, particulates, oil, organic and inorganic contaminants from quartz, wafers, glass, silicon, ceramics, and metals.  When rinsed properly our products leave absolutely no residue.  They are also proven in removing soils from filter membranes used in wastewater treatment systems.

Waste gas treatment is an often overlooked but important function of Semiconductor, PV and LED fabrication. Several serious accidents have taken place in factories where no abatement was installed. Even today waste treatment is often seen as a cost rather than a safety issue. There are three main reasons why waste gas treatment is installed in factories: health and safety, environmental factors, and quality control.

Removing all VOCs/HAPS from Semiconductor/Electronics manufacturing – commonly use regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTO) for air pollution control needs.

Electric and electronic waste (WEEE), are coming from technology products such as home appliances (washing machines, vacuum cleaners), computers and tools. An economy based on the consumption such as today, provides a continuous increase of WEEE, and determines an increasing risk of dropping out in the environment or in landfills, with the consequences of pollution of soil, air, water and health human repercussions. These products should be handled properly and used for the differential recovery of the materials they are made of, such as copper, iron, steel, aluminum, glass, silver, thus avoiding a waste of resources that can be reused to build new equipment in addition to the environmental sustainability.
