However, they don't have enough facilities to process water for 300, 000 people.
Fab 15 will be TSMC's next "green fab" following Fab 12 and Fab 14, incorporating green concepts in energy conservation and pollution control in its design, including a process water conservation rate of 85%, reclamation of rainwater, recirculation and reuse of general exhaust heat, and development of solar power generation and LED lighting applications.
ENGADGET: TSMC begins construction of new $9.3b foundry, wants to sate our constant hunger for chips
His opposition to torture included the process of water-boarding, a technique McCain said began during the Spanish Inquisition.
Water abstraction, the process of taking water from a source for industrial or domestic usage, can only be carried out under licence from the Environment Agency.
The list is to be used to decide which sites of special scientific interest (SSSI) should have money spent on them to prevent over-abstraction by water-companies, which is the process of removing water for domestic or industrial use.
Fracking is the process of blasting water at high pressure into shale rock to release oil or gas held within it.
About 25, 000 wells a year are being fracked, a process in which water, chemicals and sand are injected at high pressure underground to release trapped natural gas.
Hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" is a process of forcing water mixed with chemicals through deep wells to shatter and crack hard shale rocks to release the gas inside.
The process involves pumping water containing small percentages of other materials into the porous shale under pressure to hydraulically fracture it and release the trapped oil and gas.

It is the process of moving water from an area with a low concentration of dissolved material, such as salt, to a place with a high concentration, by passing through a membrane.
That's a big improvement from the 1970s, when Sidney Loeb at the University of California, Los Angeles, was working on a process to desalinate water and came up with the idea of using osmosis to generate power.
The cotton grown to make those jeans whether manufactured via the Water Less process or not sucks up about 1, 800 gallons of water.
But councillors in Bath fear the water courses which supply the springs in the World Heritage city could be contaminated by the process, or that water could change direction through new fractures in the rock.
The Process Technologies segment designs, manufactures, markets and services innovative water system products and solutions to meet filtration, separation and fluid process management challenges in food and beverage, water, wastewater, swimming pools and aquaculture applications.
How much economic impact will a slower permitting process on shallow-water drilling have in the region?
This is a guest post written by Snehal Desai, global marketing director for Dow Water and Process Solutions.
She says she's in the process of selling her water business and drawing up a business plan for Checkerboard.
Fracking is a controversial process that involves pumping water and chemicals into shale rock at high pressure to extract gas.
It reached a crescendo in Pavillion, Wyoming where EPA has been investigating whether the fracking process polluted the drinking water there.
"The process also uses less water and energy - we simply use coloured bottles to avoid using dye, " says Alex Lo, the company's managing director.
It demonstrates how successful management requires the effective handling of two participatory processes: the stakeholder water management process and the co-engineering process required to organise this.
This process of combining of water, cement paste, sand and rock creates an awful lot of CO2 gases - which are linked by some scientists to global warming - about five to 10% of the world's total emissions.
In doing this, I've got deeply involved in the full process from recycling the water from the clouds, bringing it down, filtering it, using it domestically, in low quantity and with grey water products outpouring from the house that goes straight into the crops that we are growing.

For every two gallons of water the plant takes in, its reverse osmosis process will make one gallon of fresh water and send back to the ocean one gallon with twice the salinity level.
This made the heating process more efficient, so water, for instance, boiled more quickly thus saving energy.
Remember the emphasis on process, on routine, water, handwashing, and hygiene?
FORBES: Influencing Behavior: What Will It Take to Save 600,000 Lives a Year?
In the latest case, examples of wrongdoing included suspects using a hydrogen peroxide solution to process chicken claws or injecting water into meat to increase its weight.
These use an electrical process to transform salt and water into chlorine and caustic soda (a.k.a. lye), which are the building blocks of everything from plastics to soap.
Recently, after 60 years of fracking experience with no evidence of danger and no authority to regulate it, the EPA is determinedly trying to build a case against the process premised upon possible ground water contamination risk.

Some worry about the amount of water used in the process.
