Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, after several times of redrawing, the crucible bottom material with rich impurities is wrapped or has a high content and is difficult to handle. At the same time, a large amount of monocrystalline silicon tailings are remelted and redrawn. The treated tailings are also discarded in large quantities, resulting in a great waste of silicon raw materials

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for purifying the silicon waste to prepare high purity silicon. The tailing material of massive monocrystal line silicon with the silicon content of more than 90 percent or pot material as raw material is treated by vacuum evaporation and directional condensation, refinement and purification. First, the raw material is heated to the temperature above the melting point of the raw material and carries out vacuum evaporation in the vacuum state with heat preservation to remove the volatile impurity, then, the raw material is stretched and cooled to carry out vacuum directional condensation, refinement and purification. Therefore, the metal impurities are collected at one end, which not only removes the non-metallic impurities but also removes the metallic impurities. The high purity silicon with purity of more than 99.999 percent can be prepared.
