Polysilicon Production: Reaction Engineering and Scaleup Issues
In order to meet the increasing demand for solar energy utilization, polysilicon plants based on existing technologies are being built at an unprecedented rate and newer processes with better economic and environmental potentials are being evaluated. Reaction engineering, optimum reactor design and model based scaleup will therefore play a major role in achieving the dual objectives of capacity expansion and the reduction in cost of production. This paper reviews the various processes for manufacture of polysilicon and discusses the current state of the art in the reactor design and scaleup issues associated with polysilicon production, mainly for the emerging technology of fluid bed reactors.
