Abatement system producer Edwards has been voted the number two among the ‘Top 10 suppliers of critical subsystems in 2011’ for the semiconductor industry, the company has announced. The majority of systems sold by Edwards in 2011 were from the company’s inward fired combustor product range.
“The growing concern about the environment and climate change has spurred increasing awareness of the need to abate a variety of potentially harmful industrial by-products,” Steve Cottle, Edwards’ exhaust management systems product manager, said. “For example, in 2011, our systems were responsible for abating the equivalent of 8,500,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide at our customer facilities, equal to 98 percent of the net carbon dioxide emitted annually by industrial processes in the U.K.”
