INNOVATIVE APPROACHES FOR ENHANCING SUSTAINABILITY IN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING
Session: Sustainability and Green Transition
Speaker:
Antoine Amade, President EMEA
Access to potable water is a major global challenge. In many parts of the world, desalination is the only viable solution. However, this process is highly energy-intensive and requires significant chemical usage, creating serious environmental concerns.
But what if a simple improvement could make a difference?
Filtration, a critical component of desalination, has the potential to drive major change. By optimizing filtration systems, we can significantly reduce energy consumption and minimize chemical use, making desalination more sustainable and efficient.
And the impact goes beyond water. Filtration is also essential in the semiconductor industry, where even the smallest impurity can lead to costly defects. Here, too, better filtration management reduces chemical usage and, most importantly, enhances equipment uptime—leading to fewer interruptions and a more efficient production process.
This presentation will take you through these challenges and explore concrete solutions. It will highlight key environmental initiatives, including sustainability programs focused on CMP materials recycling, gas purifier regeneration, and packaging.

As automotive electronics become more complex and prevalent, the cost of failure in these devices rises. Hidden defects caused by small particles, gels, metal ions, and organic contaminants can lead to failures throughout the vehicle’s life, escalating costs and increasing risks. How can you prevent hidden defects?
To achieve optimal wafer yield and reliability, the microelectronics industry needs to address increased materials consumption requirements and materials purity challenges from chemical manufacture to point of use.
Achieving your zero-defect goals requires contaminant-free process gases. Preventing these defects requires a holistic approach from the gas generation source through the delivery, storage, and dispense steps in the semiconductor fab.
Achieving the performance goals of a new generation of automotive electronics requires a precise precursor and plasma gas combination.
The selection can be done with ease using the Entegris toolbox.
Wafers are continuously transported and stored through the front and back end of semiconductor manufacturing lines. Entegris solutions prevent corrosion that may lead to reliability failures and wafer breakage during these critical steps, helping to reduce wafer and component defects.
