The semiconductor gas purifier is a shell-mounted device that prepares ultra-high-purity gas by deeply removing impurities in the gas. Impurities in gas include molecular impurities and particle impurities, and molecular impurities are also called gaseous or volatile impurities. Semiconductor gas purifiers remove molecular impurities such as moisture, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and metal carbonyls through a bed of reactive material. It also removes particulate impurities with an integrated filter.

The latest research study on the global Semiconductor Gas Purifiers market finds that the global Semiconductor Gas Purifiers market reached a value of USD 524.28 million in 2023. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 731.56 million by 2029, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.71% during the forecast period.

Optimize traffic design for enterprises in the industry

Semiconductor purifiers are mainly used in semiconductor production, and are usually designed in the purification room in the gas station outside the production plant to purify the gas required for semiconductors. The gas used in the integrated circuit chip factory can be divided into two kinds according to the size of the amount, the larger amount is called bulk gas, and the smaller amount is called Specialty gas. Bulk gases are nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, argon and helium. Nitrogen is used the most in the whole plant. Electronic bulk gas is generally used as environmental gas, protective gas, clean gas and carrier gas, etc., which is required to be supplied full-time in semiconductor manufacturing plants, mainly to on-site gas production, and has high requirements for safety, stability and reliability of supply. Driven by terminal applications such as 5G, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things, integrated circuit manufacturing technology has developed from following Moore's Law to beyond Moore's Law, and breakthrough progress has been made by advanced technology nodes, and the demand for upstream semiconductor materials such as electronic bulk gases is increasing day by day. Due to the increase in demand and the high demand for electronic bulk gases in the manufacturing process, semiconductor gas purifier enterprises optimize flow design, gas mixing ratio flow rate, scientific and reasonable adjustment of temperature and pressure, and gas output flow rate. Therefore, with the increase in terminal demand, companies in the industry are expected to continue to optimize product flow in the future.

Downstream demand is large and growing steadily

According to the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), annual sales grew from $139 billion in 2001 to $573.5 billion in 2022, an increase of 313%. Over the same period, semiconductor unit sales grew 290%, reflecting increased demand for semiconductors across the economy, with global demand for semiconductor manufacturing capacity expected to grow 56% by 2030. From the perspective of the entire semiconductor industry chain, the upstream is mainly semiconductor materials and semiconductor equipment manufacturers, and the midstream is integrated circuit (IC), photoelectric devices, discrete devices, sensor products manufacturers. Downstream is automobile manufacturing, consumer electronics manufacturing, aerospace, medical equipment and other product manufacturing industries. Because electronic gases are widely used in film manufacturing, etching, doping, vapor deposition, diffusion and other processes in the production of integrated circuits and display panels, the semiconductor gas purifier industry is the upstream enterprise of the semiconductor industry. From the perspective of the semiconductor industry as a whole, with the booming development of automotive, electronic products and other fields, the market demand for chips, sensors, and optoelectronic devices continues to grow. Therefore, as the size of the semiconductor market continues to expand, the market demand for semiconductor equipment is also expanding. The semiconductor air purifier is one of the semiconductor equipment, which plays an important role in the whole semiconductor processing. Overall, as the semiconductor market continues to expand, the demand for products will continue to increase, which will become an important driving force for the development of the industry.

Segmentation Overview:

Among different product types, Bulk Gas Purifier segment is anticipated to contribute the largest market share in 2028.

Point-of-use gas purifiers provide not only high-purity gas but also relatively low flow rates that can be adjusted over a range to match the end application. Typical flow rates for point-of-use gas purifiers are 0.1 slpm to 100 slpm. Point-of-use gas purifiers typically have a short lifespan.

Bulk gas purifiers have large flow and long life. The bulk gas purifier has high processing capacity, high working pressure and high purity. The typical processing capacity of bulk gas purifiers is up to tens of thousands of cubic meters per hour, the working pressure is up to 350 barg, and the output purity can reach 9N or higher when the input purity is 5N. In the semiconductor industry, batch purification is commonly used as a production facility to purify incoming gases.

Application Overview:

By application, the Deposition segment occupied the biggest share from 2018 to 2022.

Deposition Deposition is a process that deposits a blanket of materials on a surface. Deposition processes create layers of dielectric (insulating) and metal (conducting) materials used to build a semiconductor device. There are multiple ways to do this, including selective deposition, atomic-layer deposition, chemical vapor deposition and physical vapor deposition.

Photolithography Photolithography involves manipulating light to etch desired features onto a surface. This process involves transferring the pattern onto a mask on the surface, then etching away the areas of the surface unprotected by the mask. Photolithography is an important microfabrication technique used to pattern substrates for modern electronics, sensors, and microfluidics. It is a precise form of custom surface fabrication.

Etching Etching is an intaglio printmaking process in which lines or areas are incised using acid into a metal plate in order to hold the ink. In etching, the plate can be made of iron, copper, or zinc. To prepare the plate for etching, it is first polished to remove all scratches and imperfections from the surface. Unlike other metal working processes, metal etching is fast, exceptionally accurate, and highly reliable.

Others Other semiconductor applications include ion implantation and cleaning, among others. During ion implantation, the wafer is bombarded with a beam of charged ions called dopants, which alter the electrical properties of the exposed surface film. Cleaning refers to cleaning wafers, patterning circuit images, and removing photoresists after etching in semiconductor processing.
