    摘要: A dilution apparatus for continuously producing a diluted liquid sample, e.g., a chemical-mechanical polishing slurry, for analysis, e.g., particle size distribution, comprises a mixer manifold, a diluent-introducing means, e.g., a flow controlling device, for introducing a diluent, e.g., water, into the mixer manifold, and a liquid sample introducing means, e.g., a pump, for introducing the sample into the mixer manifold. The mixer manifold includes a plurality of ports for receiving a plurality of liquid samples from a plurality of sample points. The dilution apparatus can include a second mixer manifold for continuously producing a second diluted liquid sample, and it can be associated with one or more sensors operable to measure sample properties, e.g., an optical particle counter. The sensors can be operated simultaneously, and the measurements of the sensors can be compared. The dilution apparatus is capable of improving accuracy, reliability, repeatability, sensitivity and versatility of the associated sensors, and it is less complex than conventional dilution systems.

    摘要: A chemical blending system for blending two or more constituent chemicals to a desired concentration. One embodiment of the system includes a mix tank, a recirculation line having an inlet and an outlet in the tank, and a pump in the recirculation line for recirculating and mixing the blended chemical. A source of diluent is fluidly coupled to the mix tank through a diluent inlet and supply line. A source of concentrated chemical is fluidly coupled to the recirculation line through a concentrated chemical inlet, supply line, and an adding valve located in the recirculation line between the inlet and pump. A conductivity-type sensor in the recirculation line provides continuous measurements of the blended chemical concentration. A titration analyzer is coupled to the recirculation line to provide periodic blended chemical concentration measurements. A programmable logic control system including a processor and associated memory is coupled to the adding valve, conductivity-type sensor and titration analyzer. A blending control program and process control values are stored in the memory. The processor executes the blending control program and controls the concentrate adding valve as a function of the concentration measurements provided by the conductivity-type sensor and titration analyzer to blend the chemical to the desired concentration.

    摘要: A method for qualifying a chemical distribution system and components used therein to ensure that the quantity of contaminants extracted from the system by the chemical is below a predetermined specification level. A volume of the chemical is continuously circulated through the system. The concentrations of extracted contaminants in the chemical are periodically measured, and the contaminant extraction rate determined as a function of the measurements. The system is qualified for production when the extraction rate has decreased to the specification level.

    摘要: A method of recycling and purifying cleaning chemicals used in the production of semiconductor circuits and containing hydrofluoric acid and or hydrochloric acid. Recycling of such chemicals is accomplished using separation and reconstitution steps Hydrofluoric acid and hydrochloric acid cannot be distilled directly from a chemical solution as they form azeotropes with water. A low vapor pressure substance such as sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid is used to break the azeotrope while increasing the purity of the recovered chemicals and decreasing disposal problems. The method is useable at the point of use of the chemicals.
