2nd Edition
by William Whyte (Author)
A self-contained and practical book providing step-by-step guidance to the design and construction of cleanrooms, appropriate testing methodologies, and operation for the minimization of contamination…
This
second edition has been comprehensively revised and includes extensive
updates to the two chapters that contain information on cleanroom
standards and guidelines. The chapter on risk management has been
extensively revised, especially the section on risk assessment. Other
new subjects that have been added to the various chapters are those on
clean-build, determination of air supply volumes for non-unidirectional
airflow cleanrooms, RABS (Restricted Access Barrier Systems),
contamination recovery test methods, entry of large items into a
cleanroom, glove allergy problems, and how to develop a cleanroom
cleaning programme.
Used for in-house training and a textbook in
colleges, this volume is for cleanroom personnel at all levels. It
provides novices with an introduction to the state-of-the-art technology
and professionals with an accessible reference to the current
practices. It is particularly useful in the semiconductor,
pharmaceutical, biotechnology and life sciences industries.
