Can intermediate frequency furnace smelt metal silicon?
There are two ways to smelt metallic silicon. The first method is that silica, coke and charcoal are used as raw materials in submerged arc furnace, and under the condition of electrode heating, high temperature carbon reduction is carried out to obtain metallic silicon; The other is to use intermediate frequency furnace, electric arc furnace and vacuum induction furnace to produce metallic silicon with high silicon content silicon slag and silicon mud of single crystal silicon wafer as raw materials. The output of silicon is not high, only reaching 60-70%, and the power consumption is 3000-3500 kWh/t. According to the different iron content of raw materials, 97 #, 553#, 44 1# and 3303# metals are produced.
