Problems solved by technology

The technical disadvantages of using this technology to produce industrial silicon are: (1) This technology uses the traditional electric furnace process, which does not solve the shortcomings of high power consumption, rapid equipment damage, and poor technical and economic indicators in the electric furnace process.
(2) In this technology, the pyrolysis gas produced by biomass pyrolysis is used to produce high value-added chemical products, which will inevitably lead to long process flow, complicated process equipment and high investment cost of this technology
However, this technology has the following disadvantages: (1) This technology does not mention how to produce industrial silicon, nor does it solve the problems of high power consumption in the electric furnace process, rapid equipment damage, and poor technical and economic indicators in the current industrial silicon production.
(2) This technology only mentions that the biomass reducing agent prepared from biomass can be applied to the ferroalloy industry and the electric melting ironmaking industry, but does not mention the comprehensive utilization of biomass
However, this technology has the following disadvantages: (1) In this technology, the industrial silicon production process still uses the traditional submerged arc furnace process, which does not solve the shortcomings of the submerged arc furnace process, such as high power consumption, rapid equipment damage, and poor technical and economic indicators.
(3) This technology does not mention how to comprehensively utilize biomass, but the present invention can realize the comprehensive utilization of biomass, and the biomass charcoal, combustible gas and biomass oil obtained by biomass pyrolysis are all effectively utilized
But this technology has the following disadvantages: (1) Compared with conventional industrial silicon smelting, this technology saves about 40% of electricity, but as long as submerged arc furnace technology is used, it is difficult to fundamentally solve the problem of high power consumption of submerged arc furnace, rapid equipment damage, and technical economy. Disadvantages such as poor indicators
(2) This technology does not mention expanding the source of reducing agent and fuel source for industrial silicon production, but the present invention uses biomass charcoal as reducing agent, and combustible gas obtained by pyrolysis of biomass as heating and smelting energy
(3) This technology does not mention how to comprehensively utilize biomass, but the present invention can realize the comprehensive utilization of biomass, and the biomass charcoal, combustible gas and biomass oil obtained from biomass pyrolysis are all effectively utilized

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biomass pyrolysis and provides a method for smelting industrial silicon. Background technique [0002] (1) The prior art mostly adopts submerged arc furnace process to produce industrial silicon. [0003] Due to the high power consumption of submerged arc furnaces, rapid equipment damage, and poor technical and economic indicators, on the one hand, the production cost of this technology is very high, and on the other hand, it does not conform to the national energy-saving and emission-reduction policies. [0004] (2) The existing technology produces industrial silicon, and charcoal is used as a reducing agent in the early stage. Because charcoal has high specific resistance and responsiveness, low ash content, and high porosity, using charcoal as a reducing agent to produce metal silicon has always been the preferred method in this field, but burning charcoal will inevitably consume a large amount of forest resour...
