The Study Offers a Detailed Cost Analysis of Silicon Production Via Reduction. In Addition, the Report Incorporates the Manufacturing Process With Detailed Process and Material Flow, Operating Costs Along With Financial Expenses and Depreciation Charges.
Last Updated: January, 2025
This report provides a comprehensive cost evaluation of silicon production via reduction. This process primarily involves the reduction of quartz with carbon at elevated temperature of around 2000 °C, which takes place in an electric arc in a reduction furnace. Basically, the mixture of various carbon materials, including coke, coal or charcoal is fed into the reduction furnace with quartz. Then, liquid silicon is obtained from the furnace tap hole at a temperature of 1600 °C. Finally, the metal is processed ahead by oxidative refining, casting, crystallization and crushing.
The project economic analysis provided in the report discusses a Germany-based plant:
