Zusammenfassung:A METHOD OF PURIFYING AN ALKALINE SOLUTION IS CAPABLE OF EXTREMELY EFFICIENTLY NONIONIZING METALLIC IMPURITY IONS IN AN ALKALINE SOLUTION AT A LOW COST. A METHOD OF ETCHING SEMICONDUCTOR WAFERS IN TURN IS CAPABLE OF ETCHING SEMICONDUCTOR WAFERS USING THE PURIFIED ALKALINE SOLUTION WITHOUT DETERIORATING THE QUALITY OF THE SEMICONDUCTOR WAFERS. A REDUCING AGENT HAVING AN OXIDATION POTENTIAL LOWER THAN A REVERSIBLE ELECTRODE POTENTIAL OF METALLIC IONS EXISTING IN THE ALKALINE SOLUTION IS DISSOLVED IN THE ALKALINE SOLUTION TO THEREBY NONIOZINE THE METALLIC IONS EXISTING IN THE ALKALINE SOLUTION.(FIG. 1)
