- An Compound with all hydrogens replaced by fluorine on a carbon chain(CF4, C2F6 etc.) (from WIKIPEDIA)
- Including Semiconductor & LCD processing (Etching & CVD) gases (SF6, NF3)
- Very stable, Less harmful on body, Long detention period(SF6 : 3,200 years)
- Big influence on Global Warming |

- Gas volume : 10~80 CMM (vary from processes and separations of exhaust gases)
- Temperature : 30~40℃
- Concentration of PFCs : 1,000~1,500 ppmV (LCD process)
- SiF4 + 2H2O → 4 HF + SiO2 (fine dust smaller than 5μm)
- High SiO2 in CVD
- SiO2 makes low destruction efficiency and increase maintenance costs
- Design Key Factor : SiO2 Dust, Mist removing with high efficiency |

※ Key Points to PFCs abatement system for Semiconductor & LCD gases
1) Minimize air volume by adequate separation of emission gas
2) Competitive initial costs
3) High efficiency in Pre-treatment system(stable against SiO2, Dust, Mist)
4) Maximize PFCs removal efficiency
5) Minimize operation and maintenance cost
