Silicon slag is the residue left after the silicon ore is refined, and the residue also contains a lot of silicon content. And the use of silicon slag is also relatively extensive, the specifications of silicon slag also have different types, of course, the uses are also different.


As one of the metallurgical materials purchased in large quantities by manufacturers, silicon slag has irreplaceable advantages. Most people think that silicon slag is a waste of useless ferroalloy slag. After being refined, it still contains a lot of silicon. Due to the different uses of silicon, there are many types of silicon slag, which can be roughly divided into industrial silicon slag, solar silicon slag, semiconductor silicon slag, and the like. The value of silicon slag itself is also very large, and it can be recycled or used as a deoxidizer.
