Ngokwengxelo zeendaba zaseTaiwan, i-UMC ikwindawo ye-8A kunye ne-8B yezityalo zeZhukelixing Road. Ukusilela kombane kwenzeke emva kwemini ye-9. UMC CFO u-Liu Qidong uqinisekisile ukuba umsi ovela kwinkqubo yokuvelisa amandla kaxakeka wabangela ukuba abantu bakholelwe ngempazamo ukuba kwenzeke umlilo. U-Liu Qidong uthe izityalo ze-8A kunye ne-8B ezichaphazelwe kukucinywa kombane zibalwa malunga nesiqingatha se-UMC ye-8-intshi yomthamo wemveliso yokutya, ekurhanelwa ukuba ibangelwa kukusilela kwamacandelo. Esona sizathu sokuhlala siphandwa. Unikezelo lwamandla lusabonelelwa ngenkqubo yokugcina amandla ombane.
Ngokuka-Wang Yongzhuang, uMlawuli we-Bamboo Science Administration, ngokwengxelo evela kwiQela loKhuseleko kwezeNdalo kwi-Bamboo Science Administration, izixhobo zombane zangaphakathi ze-UMC i-Cable1611 zonakele kwaye nezixhobo ze-nitrogen zahluleka. Inkqubo yonikezelo lwenayitrojini esesizeni inyukile, kwaye amandla evaporator andile, abangela ukufinya kwamanzi. Inani lomsi lenyukile; izixhobo zokuqala zenitrogen ziyenziwe zasebenza kwaye izixhobo ezincedisayo zavalwa. Ukongeza, ngenxa yokusilela kwesixhobo sombane, isandi esikhulu senziwa xa i-generator yayisebenza, kwaye idizili yatsha ngokungagqibelelanga ukukhupha umsi omnyama ngexesha lokuqala kokuqalisa, nto leyo eyabangela ukuba uluntu lungasiqondi isivusi somlilo.
Ngequbuliso kwabakho ukuqhuma okuvela kwi-UMC ngale njikalanga kwaphuma umsi omkhulu eluphahleni. ISebe leMlilo laseHsinchu lathumela itrakhi yamachiza ukuhlangula. Abacimi-mlilo beza kuloo ndawo kwaye bafumanisa ukuba isityalo besinempazamo ngenxa yokugcwala kakhulu kwabavelisi besityalo. Omnye umsi omnyama kunye nomsi omhlophe wakhutshwa kumphunga wamanzi. Kwakungekho mlilo.
UMC CFO u-Liu Qidong uqinisekisile ukuba kumke umbane kwindawo yezityalo i-8AB emva kwemini, kwaye kurhaneleka ukuba yinto yokungaphumeleli kwaye akukho bantu benzakeleyo. Ngokukodwa ngenxa yokuba i-generator iqale ukukhupha umsi, isityalo ngoku asikho kumandla kwaye inkqubo yokuvelisa umbane kaxakeka yenziwe yasebenza. Ngokumalunga nefuthe ekusebenzeni, wathi ii-UMC's 8A kunye ne-8B fabs zibalwa malunga nesiqingatha se-UMC's 8-intshi wafer fab.
U-Liu Qidong uthe unobangela wokumka kombane usesephantsi kophando. Kulindeleke ukuba umbane ubuyiselwe kungekudala, kwaye akukho nzakalo. Inkqubo yamandla angaphazanyiswayo yenziwe yasebenza, kwaye imveliso iya kuphinda iqale xa umbane ubuyiselwe ngokupheleleyo. Kuchaphazela kancinci ukusebenza. Njengangoku amandla emveliso e-intshi ezi-8 ngoku aqhubeka nokunqongophala, ingozi kulindeleke ukuba yenze imeko yokuqina ibenzima ngakumbi.
Iifektri ze-8AB, 8C, kunye ne-8D ezichaphazelwe yi-UMC zinamandla okuvelisa ngenyanga ngaphezulu kweeyunithi ezingama-130,000 ze-8 intshi. U-Liu Qidong uthe ingozi yokutsiba kwamandla izakuphulukana nenxalenye encinci yesakhono semveliso kangangesiqingatha sosuku, kwaye iyakwenza isithuba somthamo esilahlekileyo kangangoko kunokwenzeka. Kulindeleke ukuba ichaphazele kancinci ukusebenza, kwaye eyona mpembelelo ihleliyo kufuneka ihlolwe.
