Among currently known alternatives for renewable energy sources, solar power is generally regarded as having the most potential to satisfy the ever-growing demand. While solar photovoltaic power is a well-established technology, its widespread uptake has been hindered by the prohibitively high price of units and thus electricity. This is due mainly to the high cost of the silicon used to fabricate the devices. This article presents a review of the development of established pyrometallurgical techniques as applied to refining metallurgical silicon to solar grade for the purposes of reducing reliance on expensive traditional silicon feedstock. Four basic high-temperature methods??solvent refining, vaporization, electrorefining, and slag treatment??are described, and the limitations and advantages of each method are presented. It is apparent that these techniques are very useful for removing impurities from silicon, but are often selective and not able to remove all problematic elements. Therefore, refining may need to be as a sequence of steps, targeting specific elements each time, or as novel methods combining multiple techniques simultaneously. Ultimately, the successful approach will have to achieve large-scale production by cost-effective means to replace current methods. 相似文献

In the production of metallurgical grade silicon (MG-Si), fugitive emissions are a serious concern due to the health risks associated with the fumes formed in different parts of the production. The fumes are also a potential environmental hazard. Yet, the chemical composition of the fumes from most process steps in the silicon plant, such as oxidative refining ladle, remains unknown. This in turn constitutes a problem with respect to the correct assessment of the environmental impact and working conditions. A comprehensive industrial measurement campaign was performed at the Elkem Salten MG-Si production plant in Norway. Samples of the ingoing and outgoing mass flows were analyzed by high-resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, with respect to 62 elements. In every step of the sampling and sample treatment processes, possible sources of error have been identified and quantified, including process variation, mass measurement accuracy, and contamination risk. Total measurement errors for all elements in all phases are established. The method is applied to estimate the order of magnitude of the elemental emissions via the fumes from the tapping and refining processes, with respect to production mass and year. The elements with higher concentrations in the fume than slag and refined silicon include Ag, Bi, Cd, Cu, In, K, Mg, Na, Pb, Rb, Se, Sn, Tl, and Zn: all being present in the ppm range. This work constitutes new and vital information to enable the correct assessment of the environmental impact and working conditions at an MG-Si plant. 相似文献

To establish an overview of impurity elemental distribution among silicon, slag, and gas/fume in the refining process of metallurgical grade silicon (MG-Si), an industrial measurement campaign was performed at the Elkem Salten MG-Si plant in Norway. Samples of in- and outgoing mass streams, i.e., tapped Si, flux and cooling materials, refined Si, slag, and fume, were analyzed by high-resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HR-ICP-MS), with respect to 62 elements. The elemental distributions were calculated and the experimental data compared with equilibrium estimations based on commercial and proprietary, published databases and carried out using the ChemSheet software. The results are discussed in terms of boiling temperatures, vapor pressures, redox potentials, and activities of the elements. These model calculations indicate a need for expanded databases with more and reliable thermodynamic data for trace elements in general and fume constituents in particular. 相似文献

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the invention of the first beam-lead device by Lepselter et al. Lepselter and coworkers
proposed a method of fabricating a new semiconductor device structure and its application to high-frequency silicon switching
transistors and ultra-high-speed integrated circuits. Beam-lead technology, also known as air-bridge technology, has established
itself for its unsurpassed reliability in high-frequency silicon switching transistors and ultra-high-speed integrated circuits
for telecommunications and missile systems. The beam-lead device became the first example of a commercial microelectromechanical
structure (MEMS). Since its inception, MEMS has taken advantage of the evolving silicon technology, resulting in today’s nano-electromechanical
structure and nano-optomechanical structure. In this paper, an overview of recent developments of silicon nanoelectronics
is presented.

CuAlB精炼剂在ZHPb59-1铅黄铜熔炼过程中经常使用,一般以B的加入量为(8~12)×10-4%为宜.另外,ZHPb59-1铅黄铜对Sn、Fe、Ni等杂质元素量也有严格的限定,因为杂质元素如同B一样,不同含量对精炼效果有不同影响. 相似文献

This paper introduces a new type of artificial neural network (GasNets) and shows that it is possible to use evolutionary computing techniques to find robot controllers based on them. The controllers are built from networks inspired by the modulatory eff ects of freely diff using gases, especially nitric oxide, in real neuronal networks. Evolutionary robotics techniques were used to develop control networks and visual morphologies to enable a robot to achieve a target discrimination task under very noisy lighting conditions. A series of evolutionary runs with and without the gas modulation active demonstrated that networks incorporating modulation by diff using gases evolved to produce successful controllers considerably faster than networks without this mechanism. GasNets also consistently achieved evolutionary success in far fewer evaluations than were needed when using more conventional connectionist style networks. 相似文献
