Process Cooling Water (PCW)
provides cooling to heat exchangers within process tools to
regulate operating temperatures. Process tools require purified water
(i.e. either reverse osmosis (RO) or de-ionized (DI) quality) as a
medium for cooling to avoid product or tool contamination in the event
of a heat exchanger leak. Wastech builds PCW skids that include the
pumps, filters, heat exchangers and controls to supply cooling water at
the flow rate and temperature required by the facility. The PCW fluid is
cooled by heat exchange with the facility’s chilled water system.

DI Water Heating is a
heat exchanger package delivering hot DI water to wet bench tools that
require direct filling or dosing of process solutions with DI water at
an elevated temperature. The skid includes a titanium plate and frame
heat exchanger, flow control valves and temperature controller. This
system exchanges heat from a Process Hot Water (PHW) supply and a DI
Water source.

Process Utility
Monitoring Systems monitor key parameters (e.g. pressure or flow
rate) for critical process utilities such as Compressed Dry Air (CDA),
Nitrogen (N2)
and process water. Measured values and alarms can be displayed locally
or remotely.
Air Dryer Automation
Systems (ADAS) are supervisory controllers that monitor the
Compressed Dry Air (CDA) supply to the facility and operates redundant
compressor / dryer units at maximum efficiency. Facilities have two or
more air compressor and dryer units to guarantee uninterrupted process
tool operation. ADAS distributes load to air dryers based on time and
alarms, thus reducing on-line time and
service costs, and yielding significant electrical power savings. ADAS
places redundant units on stand-by during periods of low CDA demand. It
will also rotate the lead and lag status of each unit on a user
definable schedule, so that operating hours can be evenly distributed
among all units. ADAS will notify facility personnel of alarm
conditions, and make emergency responses such as opening a back up
Nitrogen supply line in the event of complete compressor or dryer
failure.
