Description

A kind of purification by industrial silicon prepares the method for HIGH-PURITY SILICON
Technical field: the invention belongs to industrial silicon refining techniques in the metallurgical industry smelting, the preparation method who relates to a kind of HIGH-PURITY SILICON, relate in particular to a kind ofly, directly utilize the external refining silicon melt to be raw material, prepare the production technology of HIGH-PURITY SILICON by a series of removal impurity operations in conjunction with industrial silicon production.
Background technology: the silicone content of industrial silicon generally reaches 97-99%, this other industrial silicon purity of level is lower, be of limited application, in order to enlarge silicon kind and range of application, generally will carry out external refining by the next silicon melt of hot stove from the ore deposit, adopt the bottom to feed oxidizing gas, will remove mutually by entering gas phase or slag behind the oxidation of impurities, the equipment of employing is " two-maing ladle " or the device with certain heating.This secondary refining method can be removed most calcium, aluminium in the silicon, obtains the chemical pure silicon of each model, and range of application further enlarges, and has increased the added value of silicon simultaneously.
Along with the silicon product is made sectionalization, the market demand potential of high purity silicon is huge, as wait until the raw material or the auxiliary agent of purposes as processing semiconductor, processing solar cell, processing high frequency electrical equipment, processing high purity material curative agent, production organosilicon, silicon solar cell particularly, along with energy growing tension, it is to reduce the production cost of silicon for solar cell significantly that sun power is popularized the key of utilizing.In addition, along with multiscale HIGH-PURITY SILICON market constantly enlarges, the silicon purification techniques towards become more meticulous more, cheap direction more develops.
Obviously, the industrial silicon that utilizes existing industrial silicon external refining purification techniques to obtain can not be met the need of market far away, is badly in need of providing the method for purified silicon a kind of cheapness, easy realization of industrialization.In existing disclosed HIGH-PURITY SILICON production method, it is the most sophisticated adopting the chemical method technology of Siemens Method.But this technological core is grasped abroad, and the technological process of production is long, and the by-product cyclic environment pollution is serious and have danger, and investment is big, and production cost is higher, and downstream user is difficult to accept.Be unfavorable for applying of derived product.
In order to avoid the great demand of Siemens Method, and the high passive situation of production cost to fund, domestic and international many research institutions multiple new method of purification that begins one's study, in these novel methods, representational physical metallurgy method because of it has cost advantage, is the focus that people paid close attention to.Metallurgy purification method mainly contains and solidifies removal of impurities, the removal of impurities of high vacuum high temperature evaporation, removing impurities by oxidation, acidleach removal of impurities, slag making removal of impurities, and aforesaid method can not be removed plurality of impurities in the silicon simultaneously.In general, metallic impurity generally can be removed well by oxidation refining, pickling, directional freeze in the silicon; Nonmetallic impurity in the silicon such as phosphorus, boron physicochemical property at normal temperatures are stable, and general method can not be removed well.Report is arranged, utilize the phosphorus full vapour pressure of closing at high temperature to be far longer than silicon, by the high vacuum high temperature evaporation phosphorus impurities is removed effectively, existing disclosure of the Invention number is CN101318655A, denomination of invention is a kind of method and device of removing foreign matter of phosphor in the silicon, and this method adopts the dephosphorization of twin-cathode ray beam refining purification techniques below high vacuum 10-3pa, realized working continuously, sample is in a small amount well removed the phosphorus effect.But this method exists deficiency to be, produce so high vacuum condition, and facility investment is relatively large, the energy consumption height, and high-vacuum apparatus is difficult for being amplified to the suitability for industrialized production level of extensiveization.For the boron impurity in the silicon, its boiling point is up to 2550 ℃, and the method by the high temperature high vacuum does not have obvious effects, and chemical property is stable, and with general acid-respons, the way of pickling is not inoperative to it yet, segregation coefficient is big, and the method by directional freeze also is difficult to remove.Many patents are also disclosed the method for removing boron both at home and abroad, as patent of invention number 98105942.2 " removing the method and apparatus of boron from Pure Silicon Metal " is the Pure Silicon Metal container that silicon oxide makes of packing into, with non-transfer type plasma body, the transfer type plasma body, combination between the heating unit such as high-frequency induction and resistance, Pure Silicon Metal is melted to more than 1550 ℃, above melt, use hollow plasma torch made of copper, spray into plasma jet at a certain angle, the mixed gas of water vapor and hydrogen or carbon monoxide or paraffinic hydrocarbons, wherein water vapor accounts for the 10-40% volume of above-mentioned three class mixed gas total amounts, hydrogen accounts for the 5-90% of above-mentioned three class mixed gas total amounts, also is blown into the mixed gas of water vapor and the combination of rare rare gas element from the bottom porous.This technology is for carrying out powerful stirring action to molten silicon, adopt by rotatingfield or by being blown into gas and conventional liquation paddling process such as stir, by be blown into oxidizing gas make boron become boron oxide and from molten silicon volatilization remove boron, reached and removed the boron purpose.But this method also exists limitation to be: the amount of making the plasma fluid with argon, the rare rare gas element of helium is big, and cost is higher; The heat energy utilization rate is low, and energy consumption is bigger than normal; Plasma jet and reducing gas are blown into melt liquid level from the melt top, and silicon splashes and causes damage.Be not suitable for extensive industrialization.
Summary of the invention: purpose of the present invention, being will be from the hot stove in smelting industrial silicon ore deposit next " silicon water " in conjunction with the production of industrial silicon, by a series of simple removal of impurities operations, prepare boron content<0.5ppm, the HIGH-PURITY SILICON of phosphorus content 1ppm and total inclusion metallic content<1ppm, with the simplest equipment, minimum production process, minimum cost are produced highly purified silicon, to satisfy the requirement of growing market to HIGH-PURITY SILICON.
