Abstract

The invention relates to the field of treatment of industrial silicon materials, specifically to a method for efficiently removing boron and phosphorus in silicon. The method comprises the following concrete steps: mixing and smelting metallurgical-grade silicon, high-purity aluminum and an element I to obtain a melt I; cooling the melt I to obtain a solidified alloy I; soaking the solidified alloy I in hydrochloric acid to obtain a primary silicon wafer I, crushing the primary silicon wafer I into particles, then immersing the particles in hydrochloric acid, cleaning the particles with waterand drying the particles to obtain silicon without impurity boron; mixing and smelting the silicon without the impurity boron, the high-purity aluminum and an element II to obtain a melt II; cooling the melt II to obtain a solidified alloy II; and soaking the solidified alloy II in hydrochloric acid to obtain a primary silicon wafer II, crushing the primary silicon wafer II into particles, then immersing the particles in hydrochloric acid, cleaning the particles with water and drying the particles to obtain silicon without impurity phosphorus. The method of the invention is simple in process,low in smelting temperature and low in energy consumption; after treatment, a phosphorus content is less than 0.23 ppmw, and a boron content is less than 0.45 ppmw; and the method has high industrialvalue.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of industrial silicon material processing, in particular to a method for efficiently removing boron and phosphorus in silicon. Background technique [0002] In recent years, my country's photovoltaic power generation industry has grown rapidly. It is necessary to import a large amount of raw material solar-grade silicon (polysilicon) from abroad every year. The purity of solar-grade silicon must reach 99.9999%. 0.7ppmw. The raw material is metallurgical grade silicon with a purity of about 98-99%. Metallurgical purification of silicon is a new type of silicon purification technology, which has the advantages of less investment, small footprint, fast plant construction, low energy consumption, little pollution, and low cost. The advantages. In the process of purifying silicon by metallurgical methods, silicon does not participate in chemical reactions, but uses the physical and chemical properties of impurities to ach...
