For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0029] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0030] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The utility model discloses a polycrystal silicon production heat source utilization system, including tail gas treatment circulating pipeline, both ends all intercommunication in reduction furnace, and the tail gas of reduction furnace output enters tail gas treatment circulating pipeline, and after removing silicon powder and chlorosilane in tail gas, hydrogen is sent back to reduction furnace.

[0031] Silicon powder filter, recovery condensing unit, adsorption column are sequentially arranged on tail gas treatment circulating pipeline, and the second valve 10 is arranged on the tail gas treatment circulating pipeline between the silicon powder filter and the recovery condensing unit.

[0032] The heat exchange pipeline is further communicated on the tail gas treatment circulating pipeline between the silicon powder filter and the recovery condensing unit, and the two ends of the heat exchange pipeline are communicated with the tail gas treatment circulating pipeline on the two sides of the second valve 10 respectively.

[0033] The silicon powder filter includes a tank body 1, the tank body 1 is provided with a discharge pipe 6 at the bottom, and the discharge pipe 6 is provided with a plug valve. A cylindrical filter core 2 is arranged in the tank body 1, and a connecting elastic pipe is arranged at the top of the filter core 2. The connecting elastic pipe is connected with the top of the tank body 1, and is made of elastic material, which can be rubber. The filter core 2 is fixed and can be elastically swung in the tank body 1 through the connecting elastic pipe.

[0034] The tank body 1 is provided with an air outlet pipe 4 at the top, and a hose is arranged in the connecting elastic pipe. The two ends of the hose are communicated with the inside of the filter core 2 and the air outlet pipe 4 respectively. The filter core 2 is of a closed structure, and the gas in the tank body 1 can only pass through the filter core 2 into the hose and the air outlet pipe 4. A micro vibration motor 3 is arranged at the top of the filter core 2, and a rubber sleeve is arranged outside the micro vibration motor 3 for sealing.

[0035] The side of the tank body 1 is communicated with the air inlet pipe 7, and the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 4 are both provided with valves. The air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 4 are respectively communicated with the back flushing exhaust pipe 8 and the back flushing inlet pipe 5 near the side of the tank body 1, and the back flushing exhaust pipe 8 and the back flushing inlet pipe 5 are both provided with valves. The air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 4 are both provided with pressure gauges. By comparing the pressure difference between the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 4, it can be determined whether the filter element 2 needs to be cleaned.

[0036] When the silicon powder filter is filtering, the valves of the back flushing exhaust pipe 8 and the back flushing inlet pipe 5 are closed, and the valves of the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 4 are opened. The tail gas enters the tank body 1 from the air inlet pipe 7, and the tail gas passes through the filter element 2 to achieve filtering. The silicon powder is trapped on the outer wall of the tank body 1 and the filter element 2, and the filtered tail gas is output through the hose and the air outlet pipe 4. When back flushing, the valves of the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 4 are closed, and the valves of the back flushing exhaust pipe 8 and the back flushing inlet pipe 5 are opened. The micro vibration motor 3 operates to vibrate the filter element 2. The back flushing inlet pipe 5 blows gas into the filter element 2. The gas passes through the filter element 2 into the tank body 1 and is then output from the back flushing exhaust pipe 8. The silicon powder on the filter element 2 is blown off. The vibration of the filter element 2 accelerates the shaking off of the attached silicon powder to separate it from the filter element 2, improving the cleaning effect and efficiency of the filter element 2, reducing the back flushing time, and allowing the silicon powder filter to resume operation as soon as possible.

[0037] The heat exchange pipeline passes through the rectifying reboiler, and the heat exchange pipeline on the inlet side of the rectifying reboiler is provided with a first valve 9.

[0038] The tail gas output from the reduction furnace is about 570℃. The tail gas contains hydrogen, silicon powder and chlorosilane. After the tail gas enters the tail gas treatment circulating pipeline, it is first filtered by the silicon powder filter to remove the silicon powder in the tail gas. The first valve 9 is opened, and the second valve 10 is closed. The tail gas output from the silicon powder filter enters the heat exchange pipeline and passes through the rectifying reboiler. In the rectifying reboiler, the heat in the tail gas is utilized. The tail gas output from the rectifying reboiler has a temperature of about 150℃. The tail gas then enters the recovery condensing unit. The tail gas is cooled using circulating water, 7℃, -10℃, -40℃ and -70℃ media. The chlorosilane in the tail gas is condensed and recovered. The tail gas then enters the adsorption column for impurity adsorption treatment. The adsorption material in the adsorption column is activated carbon. The remaining hydrogen is then sent back to the reduction furnace through the tail gas treatment circulating pipeline.

[0039] When the rectifying reboiler does not require a heat source, the first valve 9 is closed, and the second valve 10 is opened. This allows the tail gas to be sent directly to the recovery condensing unit without passing through the heat exchange pipeline. At this time, the amount of heat exchange medium used in the recovery condensing unit is increased. When the tail gas flow is too large or the heat source required by the rectifying reboiler is small, the opening of the first valve 9 and the second valve 10 is adjusted. This allows part of the tail gas to enter the heat exchange pipeline, and the other part of the tail gas to enter the recovery condensing unit directly.

[0040] The utility model discloses can utilize the heat in tail gas, reduce the power consumption needed for heating rectification section, and after the heat in tail gas is consumed by rectification section, temperature falls to about 150 DEG C, both reduce the cooling medium needed for subsequent condensation, avoid the damage or leakage of condensing system caused by high temperature, and the micro vibration motor 3 of silicon powder filter setting can vibrate filter core 2 when back flushing filter core 2, improve the cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency of silicon powder on filter core 2.

[0041] The above examples are only preferred embodiments of the utility model, and are not a limitation on the technical scheme of the utility model, and as long as the technical scheme can be realized on the basis of the above examples without creative labor, it should be considered to fall into the protection scope of the utility model patent.
