Abstract

A successful method for abating PFC (perfluorinated compounds) emissions from semiconductor manufacture is presented. The method involves use of a novel thermal technique combining an inwardly fired burner with a built-in wet scrubber for removal of combustion products. The Edwards High Vacuum Thermal Processor Unit (TPU) is a Point of Use abatement device designed to destroy PFC and process gases.
