Hideaki IINO is a Chief Researcher at KURITA WATER INDUSTRIES LTD, where he currently manages JDP activities with Interuniversity of MicroElectronics Centre (IMEC) in Belgium. I have been more than 10 years in the semiconductor industry on both the UPW technology and wet process business. I began my semiconductor career from developing particle reduction in UPW with a major component supplier, then subsequently learned the water purification and wet clean processes with IMEC. I have a lot of patents and conference presentations. I am a member of the IRDS UPW group.

Hyeongrak Cho is a water treatment expert and researcher at Kookmin University's Smart Water Environment Leading Laboratory (SWELL). Born in 1986, Cho obtained his Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering from Kookmin University in Seoul, Korea, in September 2019. During his graduate studies, Cho focused his research on the treatment of water, wastewater, and desalination using membranes. In particular, he developed expertise in the treatment of highly concentrated salt wastewater, publishing a paper entitled "Effect of pre-treatment and operating conditions on the performance of membrane distillation for the treatment of shale gas wastewater" in Desalination (IF 6.035). Cho has conducted two successful projects on the treatment of highly concentrated wastewater. The first involved treating shale gas wastewater generated in Texas using the membrane distillation technique, and the second involved treating highly concentrated desalinated seawater using a semi-pilot MD instrument. Manuscripts from these projects are currently being submitted to high-impact water treatment journals. Cho's experience also includes knowledge of MF/UF, coagulation, and sedimentation for pre-treatment and chemical, physical, and ultrasonic washing for post-treatment. He has collaborated on desalination projects involving forward osmosis (FO), reverse osmosis (RO), reverse electrodialysis (RED), and capacitive deionization (CDI). In addition to his research, Cho is studying modeling for the automation of water treatment plants using Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), Life Cycle Assessment for decreasing Carbon emission, Computational Fluid dynamics, and pipe analysis and design for Ultra pure water supply. Cho believes that his strong understanding of general and next-generation water treatment techniques and his experience in pilot operations make him a valuable asset to any research project.

After more than 20 years as water treatment engineer at Rousset plant (France), in charge of subcontractor team (2 engineers, 2 technicians), operating UPW plant and waste water plant, I'm water program manager, technical leader for Ultra Pure Water Water treatment for STMicroelectronics Front-End plants (France, Italy, Singapore) - Technical support (project and troubleshooting) - Quality and monitoring standardization - Water saving focus - Invest technical approval - UPW engineers team coordination Ultra pure water specialist.
