How Chemical Delivery Systems Are Designed to Meet Customer Requirements

Many industry activities require the supply of various chemicals for their manufacturing and production processes. Chemical delivery systems often must be customized to exactly meet the requirements of a facility, since certain industrial processes may include special procedures and the use of specific chemicals.

Typical custom requirements deal with the following:

Delivery volumes

The quantities of chemicals used will significantly impact the design of a chemical delivery system. There are bigger bulk containers that handle large volumes of chemicals as well as drums or tanks that carry smaller volumes (but they have to be changed sometimes when the process requires a different chemical or when a new production process starts). In each caseload or level sensing must be available so that production personnel can plan the required delivery. The use of software allows operators to predict flow requirements so adequate chemical supplies can be kept on hand.

Precision and Repeatability

Different industrial processes, such as semiconductor manufacturing processes may have their own specific requirements for precision. Precision is often connected with repeatability – if a process must run in the same manner each time, the precision for chemical delivery must be the same for each run. Custom designs can ensure that precision and reliability are achieved, especially when high precision is required.

Safe Handling and Disposal

Since each chemical presents its own hazards and dangers, safe handling and disposal are of another importance. Customized chemical delivery systems provide an additional level of safety to employees handling chemicals and operating the delivery systems for specialized applications. Custom designs can incorporate the use of double-walled containment, corrosion-resistant fluid paths, and leak detection. Neutralization and disposal also require a customized approach because of the different ways chemicals are used and due to different disposal requirements.
