(SAN FRANCISCO, March 25, 2025) — FTD solutions announced a collaborative effort with CEA-Leti, a world-renowned research institute specializing in electronics and information technologies. As a current innovator in microelectronics and nanotechnology, CEA-Leti has partnered with FTD solutions to evaluate and enhance semiconductor manufacturing water management strategies to meet sustainability goals. This partnership will help shape best practices and drive industry-wide adoption of sustainable solutions.
Together, they have developed a comprehensive water and chemistry balance in FTD’s Water Management Application (WMA) to gain a deeper understanding of system performance and water management at the CEA-Leti campus in Grenoble, France. Using the WMA, FTD and CEA-Leti are working to assess current water management practices and develop enhancements to increase water conservation and reuse while minimizing overall costs and design effort. Their goal is to make sustainable water management both environmentally friendly and economically viable.
“This collaboration is a case study for addressing an urgent industry need for holistic site water management optimization – the need defined by IRDS (International Roadmap for Devices and Systems) sustainability forum,” said Slava Libman, CEO and co-founder of FTD solutions. “CEA-Leti is playing an important role in enabling sustainability in the industry. They are leading the Genesis Project, a two-to-three-year initiative with 52 international companies focused on tackling sustainability challenges in Europe and beyond. It’s an honor to collaborate with CEA-Leti and be part of global solutions.”
This collaboration underscores a shared mission to make semiconductor manufacturing more sustainable and efficient. By working together within the broader framework of the Genesis Project and IRDS sustainability goals, the partnership sets a precedent for industry-wide innovation in environmental responsibility.
