Abstract
A solvent fume exhaust scrubber (100) for recovering organic vapor from exhaust air which is produced during the manufacture of semiconductors includes a throttling chamber (180) containing a plurality of planar baffles (112, 114, 116, 118 and 120), a planar condenser (130) and a cooling coil (138) which engages and substantially traverses the planar surface of the condenser. The throttling chamber intersects an exhaust duct (152) so that an exhaust stream (182) flows in a flow direction (184) through the chamber. Each baffle and condenser has a planar surface which is disposed at right angles to the flow direction. The surface extends partially across the exhaust stream. The baffles are arranged sequentially along the flow direction and have offsetting planar surfaces across the exhaust stream so that the baffles in combination extend across the exhaust stream. A baffle includes a baffle frame (302) for holding a plurality of carbon beads (306).
