Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to for the Pure Silicon Metal quality of existing metallic silicon smelting explained hereafter lowly, foreign matter content is high, and the shortcomings such as later stage cost for purification height provide a kind of production technique of utilizing mineral hot furnace to produce low boron phosphorus 3N HIGH-PURITY SILICON.
In order to reach above-mentioned purpose, solution of the present invention is:
Utilize mineral hot furnace to produce the production technique of low boron phosphorus 3N HIGH-PURITY SILICON, concrete production craft step is as follows:
1) take silica as the silicon source, take refinery coke as reductive agent, take wood chip or bagasse as raising agent;
2) silica is broken, use acid soak 30-60 minute, extremely neutral with washed with de-ionized water;
3) with the refinery coke abrasive dust, in acid, soaked 30-60 minute, to neutral, add organic binder bond uniform stirring after drying with washed with de-ionized water, and agglomerating with the ball press extruding;
4) wood chip was soaked 30-60 minute with soak solution, extremely neutral with washed with de-ionized water; Or with the bagasse rinsed with deionized water;
5) mix silica, refinery coke and wood chip or bagasse, and drop into mine heat furnace smelting;
6) silicon water is packed into platform bag (existing equipment), logical mixed gas continuously, mixed gas is by oxygen O
2Mix with the volume ratio of air by 2:1, drop into simultaneously slag former;
7) silicon water is poured in the crystallizer, kept solidifying with 15 ℃ of-30 ℃/min speed coolings.

In step 4), the chip dimensions size is: length * wide * height=100 * 50 * 5-150 * 80 * 10(does not have dimensional requirement to bagasse), soak solution is sodium hydroxide (NaOH), mass percentage concentration is 5%-20%.
In step 5), silica, refinery coke and wood chip or bagasse mass mixing ratio are about 8:4:1, adopt to be different from traditional new flushing and casting method: smoldering is until integral body is grilled thoroughly, and boiler face integral body is forced jetsam, and reinforced one piece is finished.
In step 6), the slag former composition is by mass percentage: CeO (rare earth) accounts for 40%-60%, and BaO accounts for 25%-35%, Na
2O accounts for 5%-35%; Its add-on is the 2%-10% of silicon water by mass percentage.
In step 7), the low-phosphorous boron 3N HIGH-PURITY SILICON product that can obtain requiring is broken to≤80-100mm pack in silicon ingot cooling in the device to be crystallized into pieces.
In step 7), crystallizer adopts the graphite lining to do inner bag, is castable around the inner bag, and the bottom of inner bag is the composite structure of refractory brick and asbestos plate, and Buffer Unit is installed in the periphery of castable.Graphite lining, castable, Buffer Unit, refractory brick, asbestos plate and box hat play insulation jointly as the member of integral heat insulation system in the crystallizer, slow down the solid speed of silicon water-setting, fully realize the effect that the slag gold separates.
After adopting such scheme, the present invention utilizes mineral hot furnace stably to smelt low-phosphorous boron 3N HIGH-PURITY SILICON by starting material such as selected and processing silica, refinery coke, wood chips, Fe≤750ppmw wherein, AL≤150ppmw, Ca≤100ppmw, P≤10ppmw, B≤2ppmw.The Pure Silicon Metal quality that smelting technology of the present invention is produced is high, and foreign matter content is low, and the later stage cost for purification is low.
