The increasing global demand for semiconductor chips continues to drive growth in the microelectronics industry. At the same time, pressures from governments and regulatory bodies are compelling the industry to be more sustainable.

To ensure the high quality of ultrapure water (UPW) used in microelectronics manufacturing, the microbial control of water is routinely determined using a growth-based method. This technique generates a large amount of consumables that must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

Typically, the waste requires expensive processing and consumes significant resources, many of which are non-renewable and carbon-producing.

A more sustainable alternative is on-line microbial monitoring of UPW with METTLER TOLEDO's 7000RMS, an analyzer that measures microbial content and reports the measurement in real time. As the 7000RMS does not use consumables, no waste is generated.

The 7000RMS can eliminate the use of growth-based testing of UPW in microelectronics, potentially saving up to $120,000 per year for a plant that collects 20 water samples for daily bioburden testing. It can also help users optimize water system maintenance and rinsing times, generating additional material savings. 

Read in the white paper how on-line microbial monitoring of UPW with the 7000RMS supports sustainable microelectronics manufacturing.
