Problems solved by technology

[0005] Aiming at the above defects or improvement needs of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for purifying silicon by vapor phase dealloying, which first converts the silicon element in the raw silicon containing impurities into magnesium silicide to realize the first separation of silicon and impurities. After one separation, the silicon-magnesium alloy is converted into magnesium nitride in a nitrogen-containing atmosphere, and silicon with a three-dimensional porous structure is re-precipitated to further separate silicon from impurities, wherein magnesium nitride is formed in a three-dimensional channel, and finally Remove magnesium nitride and the impurities mixed in it by pickling, thereby solving the technical problems of high cost, high energy consumption and complicated process existing in the existing improved Siemens method and metallurgical method for purifying silicon

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of purification of silicon, and particularly relates to a method for purifying silicon through a phase separation and dealloying reaction method. Firstly,a silicon raw material containing metal or non-metal impurities is mixed with magnesium powder, and then a sufficient reaction is carried out under the inert atmosphere, so that silicon atoms in the silicon raw material react with magnesium to be converted into magnesium silicide, and the impurities in the silicon raw material are separated from silicon to obtain a first product; then the first product is subjected to a nitridation reaction under the nitrogenous atmosphere, the magnesium silicide in the first product is converted into liquid-phase magnesium nitride at the reaction temperature,silicon separates crystals from the liquid-phase magnesium nitride, three-dimensional porous silicon and magnesium nitride distributed in pore passages of the three-dimensional porous silicon are formed, and a second product is obtained; in the process of separating out the crystals by the silicon, the impurities are further separated and dissolved in the liquid-phase magnesium nitride; finally,the second product is treated through acid pickling, wherein the magnesium nitride and the impurities are dissolved and converted into a solution, and a solid product is high-purity porous silicon.
