Title:
METHOD FOR PRODUCING HIGH PURITY SILICON
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2009084129
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a method for easily removing boron and phosphorous with low energy in a metal silicon production process.
The method for producing high purity silicon for a solar cell is provided in which metallic silicon is produced by reducing silica stone (SiO2) using metallic aluminum and/or metallic magnesium as a reducing agent, wherein simultaneously with the reduction reaction, a calcium compound is reacted with boron and/or phosphorous included in the silica stone, and thus, the boron and/or phosphorous is removed. and the method is characterized in that the amount of the calcium compound to be added is 1 to 1.5 times the theoretical molar quantity of generation of the calcium compound and the boron and/phosphorous compound.
