Silica

Complete monitoring system for the automatic, continuous measurement of silica in process water, surface water, wastewater and effluents.

High purity water systems often measure trace silica as it is a reliable primary indicator of contaminants. Silica is one of the most abundant minerals on the planet and is found in all water supplies. In the chip manufacturing industry, trace silica has the potential to remain on the wafer of microchips as the UPW dries, which can lead to a significant loss in yield.
