Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of silicon wafer debonding technology, and in particular to a debonding liquid recovery system. Background Technology
[0002] Silicon wafer debonding is the process of separating silicon wafers from the wafer holder, which is crucial for improving wafer quality and subsequent processing. The debonding process includes physical and chemical methods. Physical methods include spray cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, and overflow cleaning, while chemical methods use specific chemical reagents, namely debonding solutions, to soften the adhesive, allowing the silicon wafer to detach from the wafer holder.
[0003] Current degumming processes typically involve adding degumming solution per pass, discharging the degumming solution to a wastewater treatment plant every 30 days, and then replacing the degumming solution. The applicant has identified at least the following technical problems with this existing technology:
[0004] To save costs, the liquid replacement cycle is generally long. During the debonding process, a large amount of silicon powder is introduced into the debonding tank. As time goes on, the concentration of silicon powder increases. On the one hand, the silicon powder is carried into the cleaning process after debonding, which causes high pressure in the cleaning process and makes it difficult to clean the silicon wafers. On the other hand, the waste liquid containing high concentration of silicon powder is directly discharged, resulting in the waste of effective components. Utility Model Content

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0031] Figure 1This is a structural schematic diagram of this embodiment, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a degumming liquid recovery system. The system includes a first circulation loop, which comprises a degumming tank 1, a collection device 2, a purification component 3, and a mixing component 4. The collection device 2 collects the degumming liquid discharged from the degumming tank 1; the purification component 3 purifies the degumming liquid circulating from the collection device 2 to the purification component 3; the mixing component 4, on the one hand, can receive the degumming liquid purified by the purification component for reuse; on the other hand, the mixing component 4 includes an automatic liquid dispensing system, capable of preparing a degumming liquid of a predetermined concentration and supplying it to the degumming tank 1.
[0032] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the purification component 3 in this embodiment includes a first purification component and a second purification component. The first purification component and the collection device 2 constitute a second circulation loop. The first purification component is used to initially purify the degumming liquid and discharge the concentrated silicon powder solution. The second purification component is used to further filter and purify the degumming liquid purified by the first purification component, mainly filtering out metal ions.
[0033] This degumming liquid recovery system, through the setting of a first circulation loop including a degumming tank 1, a collection device 2, a purification component 3, and a mixing component 4, can filter and recover the degumming liquid. The mixing component automatically adds new effective components to the purified recovery liquid according to the composition of the degumming liquid, meeting the usage requirements of the degumming liquid. The purification component includes a first purification component and a second purification component. The first purification component and the collection device 2 form a second circulation loop. During the filtration and recovery process of the degumming liquid, the cooperation of the first and second purification components filters out substances such as silicon powder concentrate, metal ions, and lactic acid, changing the problem of silicon powder and metal ion accumulation and contamination in the degumming tank, reducing the risk of silicon wafer contamination, alleviating the pressure of the cleaning process, and extending the service life of the regenerated liquid.
[0034] As an optional implementation method, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the first purification component includes a first filter device 31 and a filter press device 33 connected in series, and the second circulation loop includes a collection device 2, a first filter device 31 and a filter press device 33 connected in series.
[0035] In this embodiment, the first filtration device 31 has a filtration diameter of 1nm-5nm and is used to separate the filtrate into a first clear liquid and a first dirty liquid.
[0036] The first filtration device 31 includes a first outlet 100 and a second outlet 200; the first outlet 100 of the first filtration device 31 is connected to the second purification component and is used to transport the first clean liquid to the second purification component; the second outlet 200 is connected to the filter press 33 and is used to transport the first dirty liquid to the filter press 33.
[0037] Specifically, the first filtration device 31 in this embodiment includes a filter membrane. Optionally, the filter membrane includes a PEK tubular membrane, which is used to transport the filtered silicon powder concentrate to the pressure filter device 33 and to transport water, small silicon powder particles, metal ions, lactic acid and other substances with small molecular weights to the second purification component.
[0038] As an optional implementation, the filter press 33 includes a third outlet 300 and a fourth outlet 400; the third outlet 300 of the filter press 33 is connected to the collection device 2 and is used to transport the filtrate after filtration to the collection device; the fourth outlet 400 is used to discharge the solids formed after filtration.
[0039] In this embodiment, the filter press device 33 is a filter press. By setting up a filter press, the problem of direct discharge of high concentration of silicon powder with waste liquid is solved, avoiding the waste of effective components. The solid silicon mud after being filtered by the filter press can be recycled with a high recovery rate.
[0040] As an optional implementation, the second purification component includes a second filtration device with a filter diameter of 0.8 nm to 2 nm, used to separate the filtrate into a second clear liquid and a second dirty liquid.
[0041] The second filtration device includes a fifth outlet 500 and a sixth outlet 600. The fifth outlet 500 is connected to the mixing assembly 4 and is used to transport the second clear liquid to the mixing assembly. The sixth outlet 600 is used to discharge the second dirty liquid. Optionally, solenoid valves are provided at the fifth outlet 500 and the sixth outlet 600 to effectively control the discharge of the filtrate.
[0042] The second filtration device in this embodiment includes a nanofiltration membrane. In use, the second filtration device can trap metal ions, circulating moisture and effective substances to the blending component 4. Impurities containing metal ions are filtered out and discharged as waste liquid. By employing a metal ion membrane filtration method, only periodic membrane replacement is required, which, compared to ion exchange resins requiring periodic regeneration with strong acid, offers better safety and environmental friendliness.
[0043] As an optional implementation, the degumming tank 1, the collecting device 2, the purification component 3, and the mixing component 4 are connected by pipes, and fluid is transferred under the action of overflow or pump. At least one solenoid valve is installed on the pipes to control the fluid transfer.
[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mixing component 4 includes a mixing tank, and the mixing component 4 is connected to the degumming tank 1 through a first pipeline 10, on which a solenoid valve is provided.
[0045] By setting up the mixing component 4, a desizing solution of a predetermined concentration can be prepared according to usage needs. For example, new active ingredients can be added back to the desizing solution according to its composition, and then circulated into the desizing tank 1 through the first pipeline 10 for use, continuously replenishing the desizing tank 1 with new solution. Through continuous replenishment of new solution and overflow, the desizing solution is effectively purified, reducing the concentration of silicon powder and metal ions, reducing the risk of silicon wafer contamination, and at the same time, alleviating the pressure on the cleaning process.
[0046] In this embodiment, the degumming tank 1 includes an overflow port, which allows the degumming liquid to overflow into the collection device 2. In this embodiment, by providing an overflow port in the degumming tank 1, the degumming liquid in the degumming tank 1 is discharged through the overflow port, and new liquid is continuously added by the mixing component 4 to form a cycle.
[0047] By adopting this degumming liquid recovery system, the degumming liquid recovery rate reaches over 95%. During the entire purification process, except for a small amount of concentrated metal ions that need to be discharged, there is basically no loss. At the same time, the purification process allows the degumming liquid to have a longer service life.
[0048] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
