Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for preparing silicon nitride by using recovery purification silicon wafer sawdust powder. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: 1) adding silicon wafer sawdust powder to a container, introducing a protection gas, carrying out first heating under the protection of the protection gas, and carrying out a first thermal insulation treatment to obtain a powder A; 2) carrying out second heating on the powder A under the protection of the protection gas, carrying out a second thermal insulation treatment, and cooling to a room temperature to obtain a powder B, wherein the powder A is maintained to continuously rotate during the thermal insulation process; and 3) carrying out third heating on the powder B under the protection of the protection gas, carrying out a third thermal insulation treatment, and cooling to a room temperature to obtain the silicon nitride. With the method of the present invention, reasonable recovery utilization of a large amount of silicon wafer sawdust produced by photovoltaic industry can be achieved so as to reduce solar photovoltaic power generation cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing silicon nitride by recycling and purifying sawdust powder of silicon wafers, which belongs to the field of modern photovoltaic industry. Background technique [0002] More than 85% of the modern photovoltaic industry is based on crystalline silicon wafer solar cells. The required monocrystalline silicon wafers or polycrystalline silicon wafers are cut from single crystal silicon rods or directionally solidified polycrystalline silicon ingots, respectively. At present, there are two silicon wafer wire cutting technologies in the industry: silicon carbide abrasive mortar combined with steel wire cutting technology and consolidated diamond wire saw cutting technology. Both technologies produce sawing kerfs equivalent to the thickness of silicon wafers, which are as high as 40-60%. The crystalline silicon becomes sawdust, which is discharged with the cutting fluid during the cutting process. The resulting ad...
