  • Patent number: 9657757
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method of dissipating process exhaust from a chamber. The method includes conveying the process exhaust from the chamber through an inner tube of a pipeline to abatement. The process exhaust has a first temperature while exiting the chamber, and a second temperature while exiting the pipeline. The method maintains an outer tube of the pipeline at a vacuum state by a pump such that the inner tube is substantially thermal isolated from the atmosphere outside the pipeline. The second temperature is negative offset from the first temperature within a predetermined value.

  • Patent number: 9643217
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a sprinkler configured for spraying liquid and a member with a nano-coating surface. The nano-coating surface is configured to receive liquid sprayed from the sprinkler. The apparatus further includes a sensor associated with the member and the sensor is configured to detect a signal directly or indirectly corresponding to a film deposition on the nano-coating surface. Moreover, the apparatus has a controller coupled with the sensor and the sprinkler, wherein the signal detected by the sensor is transmitted to the controller and the controller is configured to command the sprinkler spraying liquid on the nano-coating surface while a value of the signal reaches a threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20050211632
    Abstract: An improved water purification system including a high-efficiency reverse osmosis (HERO) system and a base dosing system for rapidly raising the pH of wastewater treated in the system. The invention includes an ion exchange unit for initially removing positive and negative ions from the wastewater. A high-efficiency reverse osmosis (HERO) system is provided downstream of the ion exchange unit for further removing ions from the wastewater. A base dosing system is provided between the ion exchange unit and the HERO system for dosing a base into and rapidly raising the pH of the wastewater as the wastewater flows from the ion exchange unit into the HERO system.
