Guo ke +86 132 9904 2234 guoke1207@hotmail.com 6 TECHNOLOGIES AND DESIGNING 6.1 Overview of smelting process Qualified materials sizes are stacked in raw materials storage shed, and transfer into semi-underground ingredients plant. After weighing and mixing by proportion system, raw materials are transported to distributing platform silo by belt conveyer, and distributing to each bin in furnace top. Mixed materials are downward into furnace through tubes. There have valves in materials pipes to control materials charging. Stocking machines are used to arrange materials inside the furnace. Additional tubes are equipped for artificial supplementary feeding or adding material to the furnace. Gas produced during smelting will be cleaned by dedusting system and expelled into the air in the condition of national environment protection standard. After electrical reducing process inside the furnace, Silicon liquids accumulated and ready for tapping. During tapping, tapping machine used to open and close the furnace mouth. And oxygen blasting process will make impurities separated from the Silicon liquid. Static sediment and then cast liquids into mould. Then, after cooling, Silicon blocks transported to broken process. Packing and warehousing is the final process. Clothe bags dedusting are equipped to Silicon Metal furnace for gas cleaning. Powders collected by dedusting will compacted to Micro Silicon powder. 6.2 Raw materials system 6.2.1 Raw materials storage Materials stack shed, forklift, semi-underground, and materials bins are equipped. 6.2.2 Ingredients and charging (1) Ingredients One furnace has one ingredients system with 8 hour materials consumption storage. Materials transfer flow鐚 Materials ? load machine ? bin ? vibrating feeder ? weighing ? loading belt conveyer ? mixing belt conveyer ? large dip angle charging belt conveyer (2) Charging Large dip angle charging belt conveyer ensures the stability of materials charging. (3) Materials distributing on the furnace top Equipped by reversible belt conveyer, distributing belt conveyer and so on, the distributing system is easy maintained, high automated and reliable in materials distribution.
