8.9.3 These gases may be prohibited, in some
jurisdictions, from being discharged with no other
treatment than dilution.
8.9.4 Highly toxic gases have also been known to
create problems in a thermal oxidation system, because
of the residue they leave behind and the periodic need
for personnel to clean oxidation systems.
8.9.5 Selectors of systems for discharge of highly toxic
gases should be careful to meet all regulatory
requirements and should be conscious of the discharge
location for the emission residue.
9 Point-of-Use (POU) Abatement Technologies
9.1 The selection of a suitable POU abatement device
is dependent on the process exhaust gases to be abated.
9.2 To determine a valid abatement method, identify
the exhaust composition from the process as well as the
input process gases in order to select a suitable
abatement technology.
9.3 The choice may also depend on other factors (e.g.,
whether removal of PFC gases is required or not).
9.4 The location of a POU abatement system in the
process exhaust train must be reviewed for pressure
drop, condensation, particles, moisture backstreaming,
etc.
9.5 Many types of POU abatement devices are
available and they can broadly be divided into six types
of technologies listed below.
1. Wet scrubbing systems,
2. Oxidation systems,
3. Cold bed systems (adsorbers/ chemisorbers),
4. Hot chemical bed systems,
5. Reactor systems (e.g., plasma, microwave),
6. Traps/filters/cyclones/precipitators,
NOTE 8: See Appendix 2 for explanations of each technology
type.
9.6 Units may employ one or more of these
technologies, depending on the application.
9.7 Where a technology using an exhaustible
cartridge/canister is employed, consideration must be
given to adequate means of detecting bed exhaustion
and to proper disposal techniques.
10 Provisions For Emergency Release
10.1 Routine releases, from hazardous gas cylinders
and sources are usually minimal (e.g., from gas line
purges).
10.2 Emergency or accidental releases, from gas
cylinders in use, may be controlled through mechanical
systems that lower the frequency, time and rate of
releases.
10.3 Enclosing gas cylinders and non-welded
mechanical fittings in exhausted gas cabinets that
protect the systems from damage can minimize the
frequency of accidental releases.
10.3.1 Proper design and installation of gas delivery
and purge systems can reduce the likelihood of severe
leaks.
10.4 The duration of accidental releases can be
lessened by activation of fail-closed valves or gas
cylinder closure devices activated by monitoring and/or
alarm systems.
10.5 Equipping gas cylinders with restrictive flow
orifices can lower the rate of accidental release. SEMI
S5 - Safety Guideline for Flow Limiting Devices
provides guidance on the use of restrictive flow
devices.
10.6 Exhaust of the gas cabinets should be designed to
contain sudden unanticipated releases of gas from
cylinders and piping.
10.6.1 These exhausts are typically used to manage gas
cabinets and other very high volume exhaust flow
systems that will only occasionally have emissions
present.
10.6.2 Some jurisdictions do not allow for discharge
without treatment of emergency release discharges.
10.7 Each system selector should research their own
regulations before determining the proper route and
method for discharging and treating emergency
releases.
10.8 Accidental releases from gas cylinders in use may
be controlled through mechanical systems that lower
the concentration exhausted into the environment. In
some jurisdictions there are requirements (e.g.,
Uniform Fire Code, Article 80) to lower the
concentration of accidental release, in exhaust to the
environment, below a threshold (such as one-half (1/2)
of Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH)
levels).
10.8.1 Dilution air, in excess of otherwise required gas
cabinet exhaust, can be used to reduce the concentration
of gas accidentally released into the exhaust, except
where a jurisdiction specifically prohibits this practice.
10.8.2 As another method to reduce the concentration
of gas in the atmospheric discharge during accidental
releases, abatement devices serving the gas cabinet

SEMI F5-1101 © SEMI 1990, 2001 10
exhaust can be used instead of, or in addition to,
dilution air.
10.8.2.1 Accidental release abatement devices may be
any of the types described in this guide.
10.8.2.2 In some applications, gas cabinet exhaust is
diverted to an abatement device only upon detection of
an accidental release.
10.8.2.3 When designing diversion systems, the ability
of the abatement device to operate after extended
periods of disuse must be considered.
11 Summary Table
11.1 See Table 1 for suggestions about using POU and
end-of-pipe abatement systems for different types of
processes, materials, and exhaust systems.
12 Alternative Approaches
12.1 This guide is primarily concerned with handling
gas effluents that arise from semiconductor processing.
Capture and abatement is not the only approach to
avoid release of hazardous materials. If possible, use of
the hazardous materials should be avoided. In theory
the following approach should be used:
12.1.1 Replace the hazardous material with one that is
non-hazardous or less hazardous.
12.1.2 If replacement is not possible, use less of the
material.
12.1.3 If possible, totally enclose the system so all
material is recovered and reused.
12.1.4 If none of the above can be achieved, fit
effective abatement devices.
