ABSTRACT A gas scavenger unit educts gases away from semiconductor wafers as they are withdrawn through a plenum in the scavenger from their processing chamber into the atmosphere. The scavenger has a peripheral wall which generally defines a plenum having two open ends. The one end of the plenum communicates with the processing chamber and the other end communicates with the atmosphere. An exhaust port in the peripheral wall communicates with a house gas exhaust system. The plenum is divided into two chambers by an aperatured interior wall. The wafers travel through the first chamber and the second chamber communicates with the house gas exhaust system. The aperatures in the interior wall are disposed about the wafer travel path so that gases from the processing chamber and/or the atmosphere are educted into the house exhaust system without flowing across the wafers.
