The world No 1 battled back from a 6-1 deficit and eventually ended White's stubborn resistance with a tense 16-13 win at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool.
He will face Peter Wright in the last four after the Scotsman cruised to a 16-7 victory over Gerwyn Price in the earlier quarter-final.
Van Gerwen was expected to continue his blistering progress against White, but the Stoke man stalled his march in the early legs with razor-sharp finishing.
A composed 78 checkout opened up a 3-0 lead against the exasperated Van Gerwen, who had more cause for concern when White completed a 121 finish to move 6-1 up.
Faced by the threat of a shock exit, Van Gerwen gradually cranked into life and closed the gap with a string of typically swift legs.
His search for a nine-darter fell short when he sent his seventh tungsten dart below treble 19, but Van Gerwen was still collecting legs with regularity and pulled 10-9 in front with a sizzling 156 checkout.
White refused to wilt and briefly regained the lead at 13-12 after taking out 81 to add a further twist.
But Van Gerwen would not be denied and White's failed attempt at a 108 checkout allowed him to move one leg away before he sealed victory with double 20.
Waiting for 'Mighty Mike' in the semis is Wright, who supplied a finishing lesson to Price while easing to a comfortable victory.
As for professional game of darts, we recommend tungsten darts, tungsten is an extremely dense metal. It is also very durable, so a high-density tungsten dart resists wear and the knurling will last much longer.
