Apparatus for removing impurities from effluent waste gas streams

摘要

An apparatus for removing fluorinated and chlorinated compounds contained in waste gas streams from semiconductor etch and deposition processes. The apparatus has a treatment chamber in which a plurality of liquid films are formed to absorb the fluorinated and chlorinated compounds contained in the waste gas streams that pass through the liquid films. The apparatus includes a tank for receiving the mixture of the absorbed fluorinated and chlorinated compounds and the liquid, and a dehumidifying device for stabilizing and dehumidifying the humidified waste gas streams.
