In the semiconductor industry, ultrapure water is critical for manufacturing processes—used in almost every phase of production. Achieving the highest level of water purification and water treatment requires advanced technologies to eliminate contaminants, minerals, microorganisms, and both organic and nonorganic chemicals.
At Xylem, we don’t just meet current standards—we prepare for the future. As next-generation chip manufacturing demands evolve, our solutions are ready to deliver superior ultrapure water quality with enhanced cost-efficiency.
Comprehensive Water Filtration System for Ultrapure Water
Xylem offers a complete water filtration system tailored for microelectronics, addressing the three essential stages: Makeup, Primary, and Polishing.
- Makeup Systems - Include water filtration, granular activated carbon/chlorine control, softening/scale control, pH adjust and reverse osmosis (purifier for water).
- Primary Systems - Advanced filtration system components include UV systems for TOC reduction, membrane-based degasification, deionization (CDI or mixed beds) and sub-micron filtration. Xylem’s VNX-EX CDI systems are designed specifically for the semiconductor industry with a second-to-none silica and boron removal capability.
- Polishing Systems - Include TOC reduction UV, membrane-based degasification, mixed bed deionization, sub-micron filtration and ultrafiltration. Xylem’s NR-45 Meg Nano mixed bed ion exchange resin is our latest generation product which has been tested to SEMI C-93 protocols.
Smart Water Management with Water One®
Optimize your water purification system with Water One®, Xylem’s intelligent water management platform. Combining real-time data, proactive service, and proven tech, Water One® ensures your water and water treatment systems perform at peak efficiency.
We can also help address mixed bed resin exchange, preventative maintenance, and operational contracts. Our retrofit and upgrade solutions improve water quality, reliability, reduce operating costs and increase capacity. For Point of Use (POU) applications, our Vanox® POU System and Vanox POU-F Filtration products produce water exceeding ASTM E-1.2 standards.
