Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, this improved Siemens production process has the following disadvantages: 1) Due to the small specific surface area of ​​silicon rod deposition, the space utilization rate in the reactor is low, the primary conversion rate of raw materials is low, and the output is limited
Calculated with an actual yield of 8%, only 16.5 grams of elemental silicon can be obtained per kilogram of trichlorosilane, and most of the trichlorosilane is converted into silicon tetrachloride during the deposition process. After the by-product silicon tetrachloride is separated, Trichlorosilane is re-synthesized as a raw material. This cycle consumes energy and electricity and is inefficient.
2) The composition of tail gas produced by chlorosilane cracking process is complex, and the separation cost is high
Therefore, it can only be produced intermittently, with large heat loss and high energy consumption.
4) Since the product is rod-shaped polysilicon, the process and cost of crushing and packaging are increased, and new impurities may also be introduced
However, with this method, since there is no crystal nucleus in the system, the generation of polysilicon requires high energy
