ABSTRACT:
A water removal apparatus removes water contained in a coolant circulating between a target object and a cooling system through a circulation line. The water removal apparatus includes a bypass line through which a part of the coolant separated from the circulation line flows; a heat exchanger, provided in the bypass line, for heating the coolant flowing along the bypass line by using a waste heat of the cooling system; and a water adsorption material, provided at a downstream side of the heat exchanger, for adsorbing the water contained in the coolant. Further, an inspection apparatus, for performing an inspection for a semiconductor wafer mounted on the target object while controlling a temperature of the semiconductor wafer on the target object, includes the water removal apparatus.
