Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a powder discharge device, and more particularly to a particle silicon powder discharge device. Background Technology
[0002] This section provides only background information relevant to this disclosure and is not necessarily prior art.
[0003] In a fluidized bed reactor, silane gas undergoes heterogeneous decomposition into silicon and hydrogen. Silicon deposits on the seed crystal surface, forming 1-3 mm granular polycrystalline silicon. Some of the decomposed silicon does not adhere to the seed crystal surface, forming silicon powder. This powder, along with the hydrogen generated in the reaction and unreacted silane gas, forms tail gas that is discharged from the fluidized bed. The tail gas passes through a silicon powder filter, where silicon powder adheres to the filter element. Through a backflushing system, the silicon powder is discharged into a silicon powder collection tank, and finally, silicon powder is recovered using a silicon powder collection bag.
[0004] When the fluidized bed malfunctions and the gas velocity is too high, the granular silicon generated inside the fluidized bed will be discharged with the exhaust gas, resulting in the collection of silicon powder containing granular silicon. This granular silicon in the silicon powder has a serious impact on downstream equipment. At the same time, during the silicon powder discharge process, silicon powder will be sprayed out from above the silicon powder collection bag, causing environmental pollution and affecting the respiratory system of the discharge personnel. Discharge operators must wear dust masks.
[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this disclosure, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0034] This utility model proposes a particle silicon powder removal device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:
[0035] During the granular silicon generation process, the material inlet of fluidized bed 2 is connected to seed crystal tank 1 to feed the material into fluidized bed 2 for reaction, and the generated granular silicon is sent to granular silicon collection tank 3 through the material outlet of fluidized bed 2.
[0036] The exhaust gas outlet of fluidized bed 2 is connected to cyclone separator 4. The exhaust gas generated in fluidized bed 2 enters cyclone separator 4 to obtain granular silicon and silicon powder.
[0037] Cyclone separator 4 is connected to granular silicon collection tank 5 and first silicon powder filter 6 respectively. Granular silicon collection tank 5 is used to store granular silicon, and first silicon powder filter 6 is used to process the fine powder airflow containing silicon powder to obtain silicon powder.
[0038] The first silicon powder filter 6 is connected to the jacketed powder discharge device 7 and is used to discharge and package silicon powder.
[0039] Among them, such as Figure 2 As shown, the jacketed powder discharge device 7 includes:
[0040] A jacketed device 702 is installed at the silicon powder outlet of the silicon powder collection tank 701. This jacketed device 702 has a hollow double-layered tube structure. The inner cavity connects the silicon powder collection tank 701 and the silicon powder collection bag 703, serving as a conventional powder discharge channel. The outer cavity is connected to a silicon powder filter 704 via a pipe, used to collect overflowing silicon powder. The silicon powder filter 704 is connected to a vacuum device 705, which creates negative pressure in the outer cavity through the silicon powder filter 704.
[0041] The hollow double-layer sleeve structure of the jacket device 702 includes: a hollow tubular jacket outer wall 721 and a hollow tubular jacket inner wall 722, with the jacket outer wall 721 sleeved outside the jacket inner wall 722.
[0042] The silicon powder collection bag 703 has a double-layer bag structure, including an inner bag 731 and an outer bag 732, wherein the outer bag 732 is fitted over the inner bag 731.
[0043] The top of the inner wall 722 of the jacket is fluidly connected to the powder discharge port 711 at the bottom of the silicon powder collection tank 701, and the bottom is connected to the top opening of the inner bag 731. The connection point is the inner bag fixing point 7311.
[0044] The cavity formed by the outer wall 721 and the inner wall 722 of the jacket is closed at the top and connected at the bottom to the interlayer opening formed by the inner bag 731 and the outer bag 732. The connection point between the outer wall 721 of the jacket and the outer bag 732 is the outer bag fixing point 7321.
[0045] A pipe is fixedly provided on the side of the inner wall 722 of the jacket, which is in fluid connection with the silicon powder filter 704.
[0046] The silicon powder filter 704 filters the substances input through the pipeline, collects waste silicon powder, and discharges it from the bottom.
[0047] When using:
[0048] The silicon powder gas stream from the fluidized bed 2 exhaust gas preferentially passes through the cyclone separator 4 to recover granular particles (>10um). The recovered granular particles are discharged into the granular particle collection tank 5, realizing the separation of granular silicon from fine silicon powder.
[0049] The fine powder airflow is absorbed by the filter element after passing through the first silicon powder filter 6, and the silicon powder is discharged into the silicon powder collection tank 701 by backflushing.
[0050] A double-layer jacket is designed around the powder discharge port. The inner layer is the main powder discharge channel, and the outer layer is a negative pressure chamber (connected to the vacuum device 705). The negative pressure layer of the jacket forms a dynamic air seal, and the escaping silicon powder is immediately captured to the second silicon powder filter 704, which can effectively prevent powder spraying from the powder discharge port.
[0051] The inner wall of the jacket is mirror-polished or coated with tungsten carbide to reduce powder adhesion.
