Recycling of Polysilicon/Mono Compacte/Mono Cauliflower/PCL-NCS-0/PCS-NCC/WACKER/TOKUYAMA/MITSUBISHI

The polysilicon feedstock – large rods, usually broken into chunks of specific sizes and packaged in clean rooms before shipment – is directly cast into multicrystalline ingots or submitted to a recrystallization process to grow single crystal boules. The boules are then sliced into thin silicon wafers and used for the production of solar cells, integrated circuits and other semiconductor devices. Polycrystalline Silicon for solar energy applications includes p-type and n-type silicon. Most silicon-based PV solar cells are produced from polycrystalline silicon with single crystal systems the next most common. Silicon Metal is also available as single crystal, amorphous silicon, disc, granules, ingot, pellets, pieces, powder , rod, sputtering target, wire, and other forms and custom shapes. Ultra high purity and high purity forms also include submicron powder and nanoscale powder.
