M+W Zander: Cost savings and less energy consumption for the factory of the future

Exhibition booth and lecture on the Semicon Europe in Stuttgart on the fair Semicon Europe in Stuttgart the M+W Zander FE GmbH from 9 presents itself to 11 October 2007 as prominent offerers for planning and building of semiconductor and Photovoltaikfabriken in Europe. A central topic of interest on the exhibition booth NR. to 2502 in to 3 is the further lowering of manufacturing costs of solar cells resounds. In addition M+W Zander FE managing director Robert Gattereder holds a lecture on the ' challenges in the context of the Semicon Konferenzprogramms for future factory concepts ' in the Photovoltaik (test specification). Energy conservation and the modernization of semiconductor factories in Europe are further important topics. The lecture of Robert Gattereder takes place am Donnerstag, 11 October 2007, at 12:05 o'clock in the fair congress center (ICS). Gattereder describes thereby the different saving possibilities when planning and building of future test specification factories.After investigations of M+W Zander can be obtained in a test specification factory with approximately a Gigawatt yearly capacity alone by recycling of process chemicals and high-purity water savings in two digit million height (euro). In the energy region Gattereder expects savings of up to five per cent by an improved planning of the factories. They can be obtained primarily by better utilization of heat, the dismantling of pressure losses and an optimized employment of cooling water. The Einsparpotenzial can rise even on up to 30 per cent, so Gattereder, if the manufacturers used the energy centers worked satisfactorily from the semiconductor and energy industry. Such plants use modern force heat cold weather coupling, save energy costs and reduce the CO2-Emissionen. In the improved planning of manufacturing plants Gattereder sees further Einsparmoeglicheiten.So one can expand the portion of the production department in relation to the en and disposal ranges with a factory with more than 500 megawatt yearly capacity over up to 15 per cent. The concept plans a central building for the utility systems (approximately for gases, water, energy), which could take over the supply of two homogeneous factory modules. That reduces the surface and line need for the supply and leads thereby in the long run too far reduced manufacturing costs. Modernization of semiconductor factories in completely Europe beside planning and building of completely new factories transfers M+W Zander as general contractors also the modernization of existing plants as well as their out and change to completely Europe. But thus customers know not only their capacities extend their manufacturing costs at the same time to lower. The conversion on more modern plants accomplishes M+W Zander also with current enterprise.Among the power spectrum beyond that attaching - the so-called Hook UP - ranks machinery to the en and disposal systems of the factory. Beyond that the out or new building of energy centers also at semiconductor locations, which provide both for a stable power supply and for costing and CO2-Einsparungen by modern force heat cooling coupling, is worthwhile themselves. World-wide know-how callably with the realization of its projects can fall back the plant farmer to the know-how of its experts in the M+W Zander group represented world-wide. Over electronic platforms this specialized knowledge is available around the clock. M+W Zander was and is involved in planning and building of semiconductor and test specification factories both in Europe and in Asia and America. Over M+W Zander (www.mw zander.com): The M+W Zander participation GmbH offers an holistic power spectrum with its subsidiary companies world-wide approximately around High Tech production plants and buildings. Main points of work are appropriate for Pharma in electronics -, solar -, -, chemistry and energy industry as well as orschungseinrichtungen, in production of pure space components as well as in the Facility management. 2006 was gained with approximately 7200 coworkers about 1.76 billion conversion. The M+W Zander FE GmbH is active an enterprise of the M+W Zander group operating world-wide and in Europe as well as the Mediterranean area. The power spectrum covers the planning and the building of Hightech plants for customers from the semiconductor and flat screen production, the Photovoltaikindustrie and the energy sector.
