RASIRC Delivers 25th Steamer
Provides ultra high purity steam for wet thermal oxidation
San Diego, Calif. – August 8, 2007 – RASIRC™, the steam purification company, announces it has sold and shipped its 25th Steamer. This is the first product ever to purify water vapor in the vapor phase. The Steamer completely eliminates the need for hydrogen and oxygen to generate water vapor. Instead, steam is produced from de-ionized water, which is inexpensive and widely available. Contaminants in the steam, including dissolved gases, particles, and ionic impurities are eliminated for purity equal to or better than anything available today.
RASIRC Steamers have been purchased by the Fraunhofer Institute for photovoltaic development and for wet thermal oxidation in diffusion furnaces in semiconductor, MEMS, solar, and optical communications applications. Systems have been installed in Europe, Asia, and the United States. The product’s rapid acceptance is due to the ability to generate an ROI that can be less than 60 days.
“We’ve been impressed with the success of the Steamer, especially in head-to-head performance against torches,” said Jeffrey Spiegelman, RASIRC president and founder. “It’s proving not only to be safer and have a lower operating cost, but surprisingly, it’s generating faster growth rates and better uniformity which we attribute to 100% pure steam that is oxygen free.”
