Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polysilicon production, and relates to a treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling substances in polysilicon and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Polysilicon is the basic raw material of the photovoltaic industry. During its preparation process, a portion of high-boiling compounds (commonly known as "high-boiling substances") with a boiling point exceeding 70°C will be produced as by-products, accounting for 7.0% to 8.0% of the crude monomer product. 99% of these high-boiling substances are polychlorosilanes, which have very complex components and similar boiling points. It is difficult to separate the components using commonly used separation methods, so they cannot be effectively utilized. In the actual production process, the main treatment method is to first concentrate, then separate and recover a portion of the remaining low-boiling substances such as silicon tetrachloride, and then hydrolyze them together with solid impurities brought out during the processing of other polysilicon such as metal chlorides, which consumes a large amount of valuable Si and Cl elements, which is not conducive to the sustainable development of polysilicon production. In addition, if these high-boiling substances are not handled properly, it will increase the production costs of the enterprise and cause safety and environmental problems.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, people have developed organic amines such as tributylamine, tri-n-octylamine, N,N-diethylaniline, N,N-diethylbutylamine, etc. as catalysts to crack high-boiling products and convert them into monosilicon compounds for recycling. However, high-boiling products contain some metal chloride impurities, mainly aluminum chloride impurities, with a mass content of thousands of ppm in terms of aluminum element. Under normal pressure conditions, the boiling point of aluminum chloride is 182.7°C, but it will sublime at 177.8°C. The sublimation temperature is very close to the distillation range of high-boiling products (120-180°C), so it is difficult to remove by common separation methods. The aluminum chloride metal impurities in the high-boiling products will react with the organic amines in the catalyst in the subsequent catalytic cracking step, resulting in a large amount of cracking catalyst loss. In order to ensure the catalytic effect, it is necessary to continuously replenish the lost catalyst, which increases the operating cost and seriously affects the stability of the production process.

[0004] At present, people have developed some methods to avoid the loss of catalysts caused by aluminum chloride impurities. For example, patent CN108658082A discloses a method for removing aluminum chloride by pre-treating high-boiling substances. The method is to send the high-boiling substances to a cooling and stirring tank, stir them at low temperature for 1-5 hours, send them to a sedimentation tank, and then let the high-boiling substances settle in a nitrogen environment for 1-20 hours, thereby separating the slurry including solid impurities and metal halides. However, the method has a long processing flow and the effect of removing aluminum chloride is not ideal; patent CN113149017A discloses a method for removing aluminum from high-boiling substances in polysilicon The complexing agent and its application are used, and the structure of the complexing agent is complex, which is difficult to be used in actual production; Patent CN105271246A discloses a method for removing aluminum chloride from high boiling points, which first adds an auxiliary agent and aluminum-containing impurities to the high boiling points to form a mixed system containing non-volatile aluminum compounds, and then separates the remaining components in the high boiling points from the mixed system by distillation, thereby removing the aluminum chloride impurity. However, the auxiliary agent used in this method is obtained by mixing "deferoxamine", "deferiprone" and "testiron" in a certain proportion, and its iron removal effect is relatively high, but the aluminum removal effect is not ideal, and the cost is also relatively high.

[0005] Therefore, developing a treatment agent that is low-cost and can efficiently remove metal impurities such as aluminum chloride in high-boiling products of polysilicon is an urgent problem to be solved in the art. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the defects existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling substances in polysilicon. The treatment agent is obtained by compounding a plurality of metal salts according to specific mass fractions, and has the advantages of good aluminum removal effect and low cost.

[0007] The present invention also provides a method for removing aluminum chloride impurities in polysilicon high boiling points. The method uses the above-mentioned treatment agent to treat the polysilicon high boiling points, which can effectively remove the aluminum chloride impurities in the polysilicon high boiling points, thereby avoiding the loss of catalysts in the subsequent cracking process.

[0008] The first aspect of the present invention provides a treatment agent for removing aluminum from high boiling points of polysilicon, which comprises the following components in parts by mass: 900-1000 parts of alkali metal chloride, 2-10 parts of alkaline earth metal chloride, and 1-5 parts of transition metal chloride.

[0009] The inventors have found that after the above-mentioned different types of metal chlorides are compounded according to specific mass fractions to obtain a polysilicon high-boiling material aluminum removal treatment agent and mixed with the polysilicon high-boiling material, a multi-component molten salt system can be formed with the metal aluminum chloride impurities in the high-boiling material. Unlike a single aluminum chloride that is easy to sublime within the distillation range of the high-boiling material, the phase change conditions of aluminum chloride in the multi-component molten salt system are changed, and it is not easy to sublime within the distillation range of the high-boiling material. Therefore, the difference in boiling points between aluminum chloride and the high-boiling material can be used to separate and remove aluminum chloride impurities in the high-boiling material, which greatly reduces the difficulty of separating aluminum trichloride in the high-boiling material, and the aluminum trichloride impurities in the high-boiling material can be efficiently removed by simple distillation.

[0010] The metal chlorides in the treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling-point polysilicon of the present invention can be selected from cheap and readily available inorganic metal salts in the art. Therefore, compared with the organic complexing agents used in the prior art, the treatment agent has the advantages of low cost and high economic benefit.

[0011] Furthermore, when the treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling-point products of polysilicon also includes 1 to 3 parts by mass of alkaline earth metal sulfate, the aluminum removal effect is more prominent.

[0012] The alkali metal chloride of the present invention is selected from one or more of lithium chloride, sodium chloride and potassium chloride, and more preferably sodium chloride and / or potassium chloride which are relatively cheap and easily available.

[0013] The alkaline earth metal chloride of the present invention is selected from one or more of calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, strontium chloride and barium chloride, more preferably calcium chloride and / or magnesium chloride.

[0014] The transition metal element in the transition metal element chloride of the present invention is selected from one or more of iron, manganese, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, titanium, zinc and cobalt.

[0015] The alkaline earth metal sulfate of the present invention is selected from one or more of calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, strontium sulfate and barium sulfate, and more preferably calcium sulfate and / or magnesium sulfate.

[0016] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for removing aluminum chloride impurities from high-boiling polysilicon products, the method comprising: mixing the treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling polysilicon products provided by the first aspect of the present invention with the high-boiling polysilicon products to obtain a mixed system; performing a distillation treatment on the mixed system, and collecting volatiles generated in the distillation treatment by condensation.

[0017] In the above method, the process of mixing the treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling materials of polycrystalline silicon with the high-boiling materials of polycrystalline silicon is the process of fully mixing the metal salt in the treatment agent with the high-boiling materials of polycrystalline silicon to form a multi-component molten salt system; after obtaining the mixed system, the difference between the boiling range of the high-boiling materials and the boiling point of the aluminum chloride impurity in the multi-component molten salt system is utilized to separate them by distillation treatment, and finally the volatiles produced by the distillation treatment collected by condensation are the high-boiling materials of polycrystalline silicon with the aluminum chloride impurity removed.

[0018] Furthermore, when the mass ratio of the treatment agent for removing aluminum from high boiling points of polysilicon to the high boiling points of polysilicon is controlled to be 1:(25-100), preferably 1:(35-65), a better impurity removal effect can be obtained.

[0019] According to the difference in boiling points between aluminum chloride impurities and high-boiling substances in polysilicon, the temperature of the distillation process can be controlled to be 140°C to 180°C, preferably 152°C to 177°C.

[0020] The present invention has no particular limitation on the pressure of the distillation treatment, and there is no need to use harsh high pressure or negative pressure conditions. In a specific embodiment, the pressure of the distillation treatment is 0.1 MPa to 1.0 MPa, preferably controlled to be 0.1 MPa to 0.4 MPa.

[0021] The implementation of the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0022] 1. The treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling products of polysilicon of the present invention forms a multi-component molten salt system with aluminum chloride impurities in high-boiling products of polysilicon by compounding alkali metal chlorides, alkaline earth metal chlorides and transition metal element chlorides in specific mass fractions, so that the phase change conditions of aluminum chloride are changed, making it difficult for it to sublime within the distillation range of high-boiling products, thereby reducing the difficulty of separating aluminum chloride from high-boiling products, and the aluminum chloride impurities in high-boiling products can be efficiently separated through simple distillation operations.

[0023] 2. Compared with the organic complexing agents in the prior art, the raw materials of the polysilicon high-boiling-point aluminum removal treatment agent of the present invention come from cheaper and more readily available inorganic metal salt compounds, and therefore have the advantages of low cost and high economic benefits.

[0024] 3. The method for removing aluminum chloride impurities from high-boiling polysilicon provided by the present invention can achieve efficient separation of aluminum chloride impurities by simply distilling the mixed system of the above-mentioned polysilicon high-boiling aluminum removal treatment agent and the polysilicon high-boiling polysilicon. The method has the advantages of high efficiency, low cost and simple operation. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0099] The following conclusions can be drawn from the data of the above embodiments and comparative examples:

[0100] 1. It can be seen from the data of Examples 1 to 6 that the treatment agent for removing aluminum from high-boiling-point polysilicon of the present invention can effectively remove aluminum chloride impurities in high-boiling-point polysilicon, and the aluminum removal rate can basically reach more than 90%.

[0101] 2. According to the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that without adding any treating agent, it is basically impossible to remove the aluminum chloride impurity in the high boiling point by relying solely on the distillation operation, and the aluminum removal rate is only 3.6%.

[0102] 3. According to the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Examples 2 to 3 and Comparative Examples 5 to 7, it can be seen that the aluminum removal effects of using single alkali metal chlorides, alkaline earth metal chlorides and transition metal chlorides as treatment agents are poor, especially using single calcium chloride and ferric chloride as treatment agents has almost no aluminum removal effect.

[0103] 4. According to the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 4, it can be seen that although the use of a mixture of deferoxamine and deferiprone as a treatment agent to treat polysilicon high boiling points has a good aluminum removal effect, it is still obviously inferior to the aluminum removal effect of the treatment agent of the present invention, and the reagents of deferoxamine and deferiprone are relatively expensive, resulting in high aluminum removal costs.

[0104] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
