Enabling Sustainability for Semiconductor Chemicals
Purity ReSource™ provides technology solutions to advance sustainability in semiconductor manufacturing.
-
Our core technology polishes used and lower-grade Isopropanol back to electronic grades, removing trace metals to low ppt and moisture to low ppm levels.
-
We possesses the chemical expertise to safely clean used Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) and Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) ampoules, making them suitable for reuse.
-
We help companies advance their sustainability goals through tailored research solutions and innovative strategies.
Purity ReSource is a proud member/partner of the following organizations.
Closing the Loop on Semiconductor Chemistry
Purity ReSource builds systems engineered to create stable local supply of semiconductor chemicals near-site, onsite, or on-tool.
✓ Minimize waste to landfill and incineration
✓ Generate high-purity chemicals
✓ Create a stable domestic supply chain
✓ Reduce costs by eliminating transportation and waste disposal
Addressing Sustainability Challenges and Supply Chain Vulnerabilities in the US
-
Over a 1 million tons of chemical waste, including roughly 20% Isopropanol (IPA) waste mixtures, end up in landfills or undergo incineration, each year by the US semiconductor industry alone.
-
The increasing demand for electronic IPA in the US (with a 96% growth over five years) is anticipated to surpass domestic production, resulting in shortages by 2027.
-
Currently, 61% of electronic IPA and 100% of UHP grade IPA, crucial for advanced chip production, is imported into the US and projected to grow 3.5x faster than its IC grade counterpart by 2027.

Keeping Arizona’s Semiconductor Industry Sustainable
In the United States, there is a significant annual disposal of more than a million tons of chemical waste, primarily in landfills or through incineration. The increasing demand for microchips, which has tripled in the last decade, exacerbates this issue. As a result, there’s a growing concern about both the environmental impact and the scarcity of chemicals required for chip manufacturing. One local Arizona company, Purity ReSource, addresses this challenge by advancing technologies for chemical recovery, reprocessing and reuse.
