WEBINAR: Addressing Water Reuse and PFAS Challenges in Semiconductor Manufacturing

📅 21st May 2026 (Thursday)   -  ⏰ 3:00PM CET -  ⌚ Duration: 1 hour

Is your fab ready for the future of water?
Semiconductor manufacturing is one of the most water-intensive industrial sectors.* As fabs expand globally and water stress increases in key manufacturing regions, the industry faces mounting pressure to reduce freshwater consumption and improve wastewater management. At the same time, emerging contaminants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are becoming a growing regulatory and environmental concern, particularly in semiconductor wastewater streams such as scrubber blowdown and specialty process waste.

Ready to tackle water reuse and PFAS head on?
Join our exclusive WEBINAR to discover how semiconductor manufacturers can address two critical challenges simultaneously: reducing water consumption through reuse and managing PFAS in complex wastewater streams. Register for this webinar to gain insights into emerging technologies, regulatory trends and practical approaches for sustainable water management in semiconductor manufacturing.

 WHAT TO EXPECT 

In this webinar, our experts will discuss how advanced water reuse strategies can help semiconductor manufacturers significantly reduce water consumption while improving operational resilience. Michael Boyd will highlight new approaches for treating segregated streams containing silica, fluoride and hydrofluoric acid, enabling greater recovery while minimising discharge volumes.

The discussion will then turn to PFAS, which are expected to remain present in semiconductor wastewater streams for many years as the industry transitions away from these substances. Expert, John Peichel, will outline the risks and regulatory drivers associated with PFAS and explore treatment strategies currently being deployed or developed for semiconductor applications.

 4 KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES: 

1. Understand the key water management challenges facing semiconductor manufacturing, including water scarcity and increasing wastewater complexity.
   

2. Explore advanced water reuse technologies enabling high recovery rates in semiconductor wastewater streams.

3. Gain insight into PFAS sources within semiconductor operations and the regulatory and environmental drivers for action.

4. Learn about treatment and destruction technologies available to address PFAS in semiconductor wastewater streams.
   

The challenges are real. The solutions are here.
