- Summary
- Progress is reported in the design of the 50 MT/year experimental facility for the preparation of high-purity silicon by the zinc vapor reduction of silicon tetrachloride in a fluidized bed of seed particles to form a free-flowing granular product. Progress is reported in the design of the silicon tetrachloride purification facility, the zinc/ZnCl/sub 2/ by-product condenser and also non-conventional items, the fluidized bed, zinc feed system, zinc vaporizer, and electrolytic cell.
