A strategy has been developed for the semiconductor industry to minimize environment, safety and health (ESH) impacts of manufacturing processes. An ESH process design tool set including C A R R P and the ESH Cast Model can empower process design engineers to consider the ESH impacts of materials and processes at the early design stage. This paper describes each of these models and provides an example of their use to improve business decision making.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
