Embodiment 1

[0054] (Example 1) Gas purification containing high-concentration impurities

[0055] In Example 1, using figure 1 The carbon membrane module shown is used for the purification of gases containing high concentrations of impurities. The specifications of carbon membrane modules are as follows. Outer diameter of hollow filamentary carbon membrane tube: 0.525mm, length of hollow filamentary carbon membrane tube: 85mm, number of hollow filamentary carbon membrane tubes: 13, total surface area of ​​hollow filamentary carbon membrane tube: 18.22cm 2 . The hollow-fiber carbon membrane is produced by forming and carbonizing an organic polymer membrane made of polyimide (aromatic polyimide) as a raw material.

[0056] The carbon membrane module was maintained at 25°C, and the supply gas pressure was set to 0.5 MPaG with a back pressure regulator at the non-permeated gas outlet.

Abstract

Disclosed is a gas purification method, in which at least one gas selected from the group consisting of a hydride gas, a hydrogen halide gas and a halogen gas each containing 10 ppm or less of impurities is purified by using a carbon membrane having a molecular sieving property. The method is applicable to a recycling system for collecting a used gas and re-using the gas as an ultra-high-purity semiconductor material gas, an apparatus or facility for producing an ultra-high-purity semiconductor material gas, or an apparatus or facility in which an ultra-high-purity semiconductor material gas is filled.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a gas purification method, in particular to a gas purification method for refining silane, phosphine and other gases used as semiconductor materials by using a carbon film with molecular sieve function. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2007-266495 filed on October 12, 2007 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-238357 filed on September 17, 2008 in Japan, and the contents thereof are incorporated herein. Background technique [0003] At present, it is more desirable to use an ultra-high purity gas with an impurity volume concentration of ppt to ppb order as a semiconductor material gas than a high-purity gas with an impurity volume concentration of ppb to ppm order. [0004] Examples of the gas used for the semiconductor material include hydride gases such as ammonia, silane, and phosphine; halide gases such as hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen bromide...
