IBM’s new Safer Materials Advisor can cut in half the time it takes to review hundreds to thousands of products for PFAS “forever chemicals” while reducing the chance of errors.
IBM, in collaboration with the Semiconductor Industry Association and other trade groups, has been steadily eliminating PFAS from its operations. But in some instances, viable alternatives have yet to be found for critical processes.
To speed the transition away from PFAS, IBM researchers recently developed the Safer Materials Advisor, a tool that uses AI to screen products for PFAS and suggest safer alternatives.
