Water Treatment for Electronics and Semiconductors
In electronics and semiconductor manufacturing, ultra-pure water is critical for nearly every stage of production—from wafer cleaning and etching to rinsing and cooling. Any impurities in the water can lead to defects, yield loss, and equipment contamination. At Culligan Texas, we deliver precision-engineered water treatment solutions designed to meet the high-purity demands of electronics and semiconductor facilities.
Whether you require ultrapure water for cleanroom processes, strategies to reduce wastewater discharge, or systems that support water recycling and sustainability, our technologies are built to meet your facility’s standards and performance goals.
For over 74 years, we’ve delivered high-performance water treatment solutions tailored to the precise requirements of the electronics and semiconductor industry, such as:
- Ultrapure Water Production – Deliver consistently high-resistivity water for wafer fabrication, etching, and cleaning processes to avoid contamination and ensure high yield.
- Rinse Water Quality Control – Maintain high-purity water in multi-stage rinse systems to prevent particle deposition, chemical carryover, and micro-defects.
- Closed-Loop Water Reuse – Recirculate and polish rinse and process water to reduce consumption while maintaining critical water quality standards.
- pH Neutralization & Trace Contaminant Removal – Safely treat wastewater to remove trace metals, acids, and organics before discharge, supporting compliance with regulatory standards.
- Cooling System Water Treatment – Protect chillers and process cooling systems by preventing scale, corrosion, and biofilm in ultra-clean environments.
Water Quality Targets & Treatment Insights for Electronics and Semiconductors
- Ultrapure water (UPW) is essential for rinsing wafers, with resistivity targets near 18.2 megohm-cm to prevent microscopic defects.
- Reverse osmosis and deionization systems remove over 99% of dissolved solids, supporting high-precision fabrication processes.
- Silica and total organic carbon (TOC) must be minimized to avoid particle contamination and yield loss in chip production.
- Continuous monitoring and polishing loops ensure consistent water quality, meeting strict industry standards for microelectronics.
