In a collaborative effort involving five companies, this project aims to reduce waste and consumption in Taiwan's semiconductor industry by implementing a circular reuse program for wafer carriers. The focus areas include carbon reduction, water conservation, and reutilization. Firstly, the process begins with a carbon and water footprint analysis conducted by PIDC, identifying opportunities for reducing carbon emissions. Secondly, obsolete wafer carriers are crushed and transformed into rPP recycled materials, extending their lifecycle and reducing carbon emissions from new material production. To conserve water, a system for recycling ultra-pure water is developed. This involves redirecting process wastewater back into the filtration process, reducing tap water usage, and increasing recycled water utilization. Thirdly, in terms of reutilization, collaboration with suppliers aims to minimize inventory costs associated with idle wooden pallets generated during transportation. The production of recycled rPP wafer carriers significantly reduces carbon emissions by 2,200 tons and generates 7,525 tons of recycled water.more
