AbstractThe effect of Ga addition on alloy macrostructure, morphology and recovery rate of primary Si during the Al–Si–Ga alloy solvent refining process of silicon was studied in this work. The addition of Ga to Al–Si alloy could change the morphology of the primary Si. The average plate thickness of the primary Si increases with increase of Ga content. With the increase of Ga content, the average plate length of the primary Si crystals becomes larger when the Ga content is less than 5% in the Al–30%Si–

Separation of refined silicon from Al–Si melt is still a puzzle for the solvent refining process, resulting in considerable waste of acid and silicon powder. A novel modified Czochralski method within the Al–Si alloy is proposed. After the modified Czochralski process, a large amount of refined Si particles was enriched around the seed crystalline Si and separated from the Al–Si melt. As for the Al–28%Si with the pulling rate of 0.001 mm/min, the recovery of refined Si in the pulled-up alloy (PUA) sample is 21.5%, an improvement of 22% compared with the theoretical value, which is much larger 1.99 times than that in the remained alloy (RA) sample. The content of impurities in the PUA is much less than that in the RA sample, which indicates that the modified Czochralski method is effective to improve the removal fraction of impurities. The apparent segregation coefficients of boron (B) and phosphorus (P) in the PUA and RA samples were evaluated. These results demonstrate that the modified Czochralski method for the alloy system is an effective way to enrich and separate refined silicon from the Al–Si melt, which provide a potential and clean production of solar grade silicon (SoG-Si) for the future industrial application.

The main factor affecting the raw sugar refining process is certainly “colour”. The higher colour removal, the higher is the obtained sugar yield. Therefore, colour removal is the main goal throughout the process. In a conventional sugar refinery colour is removed in the purification and decolorisation steps – the second one is normally done using ion-exchange resins – but there are some other ways of colour removal such as adding some colour removing agents (powdered carbon, sodium bisulphite, PCC [precipitated calcium carbonate]). In this article the pilot plant results of experiments of increasing colour removal in the refining process are described, such as PCC addition, 3rd carbonatation (re-purification), hydrogen peroxide addition, powdered carbon addition, sodium bisulphite addition and crystallization improvements. The good results achieved in some of these trials led to perform some industrial trials, the results of wich are summarized in this article as well.
