FOREIGN SUBSTANCE REMOVING METHOD, FILM FORMING METHOD, ARTICLE MANUFACTURING METHOD, AND FOREIGN SUBSTANCE REMOVING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18598317 titled 'FOREIGN SUBSTANCE REMOVING METHOD, FILM FORMING METHOD, ARTICLE MANUFACTURING METHOD, AND FOREIGN SUBSTANCE REMOVING APPARATUS

The method described in the patent application involves removing a foreign substance by using trapping films in different regions.

  • A first trapping film is formed between a plate and the first region where the foreign substance should be removed.
  • The plate is separated from the first region along with the first trapping film.
  • A second trapping film is then formed between the plate holding the first trapping film and a second region where another foreign substance should be removed.
  • The plate is separated from the second region along with both trapping films.
  • The volume-to-area ratio of the second trapping film in the larger second region is higher than that of the first trapping film in the smaller first region.

Potential Applications: - Cleaning surfaces contaminated with foreign substances. - Removing pollutants from water or air. - Purifying industrial processes by eliminating unwanted materials.

Problems Solved: - Efficient removal of foreign substances from different sized regions. - Minimizing contamination in various environments. - Enhancing cleanliness and purity in industrial settings.

Benefits: - Improved cleaning processes. - Enhanced environmental protection. - Increased efficiency in purification methods.

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Trapping Film Technology for Enhanced Cleaning Processes This technology can be utilized in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and environmental remediation to improve cleaning and purification processes. The market implications include increased demand for efficient and environmentally friendly cleaning solutions.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the trapping film technology compare to traditional cleaning methods?

  - The trapping film technology offers a more efficient and targeted approach to removing foreign substances compared to traditional methods.

2. What are the potential cost savings associated with implementing this technology in industrial settings?

  - Implementing this technology can lead to cost savings by reducing the need for excessive cleaning agents and manual labor.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for removing a foreign substance includes forming a first trapping film between a plate and a first region where a foreign substance should be removed and separating the plate from the first region together with the first trapping film, forming a second trapping film between the plate holding the first trapping film and a second region where a foreign substance should be removed, and separating the plate from the second region together with the first trapping film and the second trapping film. The second region is larger than the first region. A value obtained by dividing a volume of the second trapping film by an area of the second region is larger than a value obtained by dividing a volume of the first trapping film by an area of the first region.
