Silicon Metal 553 Factory locate in many provinces in China. Anyang Highrise Metal Material is a professional Silicon Metal 553 Factory. Silicon metal 553 is a mainstream and most common model. Silicon metal accounts for more than 35% of all silicon metal production. It and Silicon Metal 441 both are metallurgical grade silicon. Both have the largest output in this industry.
The production method of silicon metal 553 mainly uses the carbothermal method, which is a method of smelting in a submerged arc furnace using silica and carbonaceous reducing agents. The specific production process is as follows: First, prepare silica ore as raw material, and then crush it into silica blocks. Then prepare furnace charge, mainly including petroleum coke, charcoal, wood chips, low-ash coal, etc. as reducing agents. Then, high-temperature smelting is performed in a submerged electric furnace to reduce metallic silicon from silica. This is a slag-free submerg arc high-temperature smelting process.
The Silicon metal produced by Silicon Metal 553 Factory through this method has a Si content of more than 98.5%. The production of industrial silicon requires approximately 2.7 tons of silica, 2 tons of carbonaceous reducing agent, 0.12 tons of electrodes, and more than 12,000 kilowatt hours of electricity. Electricity prices account for the largest proportion in industrial silicon production, and the highest proportion can reach 50%. Therefore, the impact of electricity price trends in major production areas on production costs is extremely important.
As a professional silicon metal manufacturer (silicon metal 553 factory), Anyang Highjrise Metal Material maintains a high level of production capacity all year round. It has multiple production plants, multiple large electric furnaces, and crushing and processing equipment across the country. The metallic silicon products we produce are of good quality, low price and stable supply. Now it gains the market of North China, South China and many countries and regions all over the world.
