Introduction
In the fast-paced world of semiconductor fabrication, operational expenditure (OPEX) reduction emerges as a critical strategy. Our client’s makeup plant is integral to ultrapure water (UPW) generation; however, the frequent replacement of the polishing mixed bed in this plant was raising concerns, as it occurred every six months, incurring substantial costs.
To address this issue, the client sought an efficient and cost-effective solution to extend the lifespan of the polishing mixed bed, thereby reducing their operational costs and enhancing the competitiveness of their semiconductor manufacturing process.
