CASE	Catalytic Bay Scrubber for Removing Greenhouse F-Gases in Semiconductor Processes

Due to recent trends in semiconductor miniaturization and the surge in AI demand, not only front-end semiconductor process equipment but also back-end systems and environmental facilities are requiring more space and power. Consequently, environmental equipment in sub-FABs—such as scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators, and vacuum pumps—must be compactly designed to reduce power consumption, installation footprint, and piping complexity while maintaining performance. Currently, environmental equipment used to treat greenhouse F-gases generated during semiconductor production processes (such as etching and deposition) relies on small-scale plasma-wet and burn-wet scrubber technologies. With approximately 10,000 units installed in semiconductor manufacturing facilities, there is a pressing need to enhance space efficiency, reduce power consumption, and improve maintenance convenience through the adoption of medium- and large-scale systems.
	Based on technical collaboration with global partners and its own design capabilities, SK ecoplant has developed medium- to large-scale catalytic bay scrubber technology. By using a catalyst to significantly lower the decomposition temperature of greenhouse gases, this technology reduces power consumption and can replace 20 to 50 existing units, thereby greatly improving space efficiency and ease of maintenance. By 2025, SK ecoplant has completed pilot technology validation and built a prototype on the same scale as commercial facilities, achieving a greenhouse gas reduction efficiency of 95% or higher for major F-gases and an energy recovery rate of 90% or higher. In addition, the company has developed its own dynamic simulator to optimize design and operating conditions, thereby enhancing technical performance. In 2026, SK ecoplant plans to conduct demonstration tests at semiconductor manufacturing facilities to lay the groundwork for commercialization, in addition to developing technology to scale up systems installed on factory roofs.

CASE	Energy Efficiency in Eco-Friendly Buildings

SK ecoplant aims to minimize waste and carbon emissions throughout the entire life cycle of various buildings—including residential and commercial facilities, infrastructure, and industrial complexes—by integrating eco-friendly elements with the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) capabilities accumulated through its existing construction business. To this end, the company is continuously conducting R&D on design and construction technologies that reduce environmental impact and enable resource circulation. In particular, to reduce a building’s energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, SK ecoplant applies design and technical elements that enhance the building’s energy efficiency while improving comfort for residents and users. To this end, the company evaluates the potential for utilizing natural energy based on the building’s location, orientation, and insulation performance from the initial design stage, while employing high-efficiency heating systems, equipment, and lighting. Furthermore, SK ecoplant operates a phased integrated energy design process—covering the entire “review–design–implementation–operation” cycle—to gradually increase a building’s energy self- sufficiency through the application of renewable energy sources such as solar power. The goal is not only to optimize elements such as the building envelope, systems, controls, and renewable energy to achieve energy performance that meets external standards—such as Zero Energy Buildings (ZEB)—but also to ensure that performance is maintained stably throughout the operational phase. In 2025, a highly insulated and airtight building envelope system was implemented at the SK V1 knowledge industrial complex in West Busan to minimize heat loss, while a Building Energy Management System (BEMS) was established to enhance operational efficiency through real-time monitoring of energy consumption. Furthermore, by installing a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) system and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), the facility achieved an energy self-sufficiency rate (the percentage of primary energy production relative to primary energy consumption) of over 20%, thereby earning a Zero Energy Grade 5 (preliminary certification).
	The Yeongdeungpo office building also incorporates a highly insulated and airtight building envelope system; the use of a double-skin envelope system enhances occupant comfort and minimizes energy loss. To strengthen energy usage management, an integrated building energy management system was implemented, while the building itself was designed to improve energy self-sufficiency through a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) system and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC). SK ecoplant is standardizing the most efficient combinations of renewable energy sources—such as building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) systems and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs)—tailored to the purpose, size, and energy usage characteristics of all buildings currently under construction. Based on this, the company plans to establish specific performance targets aligned with the government’s energy self-sufficiency goals and monitor their implementation progress.
