What is the production process of industrial silicon？

Industrial Silicon (Silicon Metal), also known as metal silicon crystalline silicon, is derived from the reduction of silica by carbon reducing agent in the mineral furnace, is an important raw material for the production of organic si silicon, polysilicon and aluminum alloy.

Industrial silicon is produced by continuous electrothermal chemical reaction in a mineral furnace with silica, carbonaceous reducing agent and loosening agent as raw materials.

In the process of smelting production, the charge required for production is first sent to the storage yard of the ore furnace workshop by the raw material handling system, and then according to the ratio of the charge, the accurately weighed charge is delivered to the top bunker of the ore furnace workshop or the storage bin of the operating platform by the conveying equipment, and the charge is added to the furnace by the operator of the furnace.

Application: Agricultural field:

Silicon is an indispensable element for the normal growth and development of rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, peanuts and other crops. The application of silicon fertilizer can increase crop yield. However, due to the stable nature of silicon, improper fertilization methods will cause silicon fertilizer to be fixed in the form of a compound in the soil with poor mobility, resulting in the increasingly serious silicon deficiency or silicon deficiency in large areas of cultivated land, affecting the high and stable yield of crops.

Chemical industry:

Silicon chemical industry is a rapidly developing emerging industry, mainly based on quartz sand as raw materials, involving the following industries: rubber, paint, plastics, metallurgy, washing, welding, construction, medicine, feed, catalysis and so on.
