Upgrading off-grades from the silicon process : Increasing the silicon yield from Elkem Thamshavn using mechanical or metallurgical separation

The aim of the thesis is to produce high grade silicon from off-grade materials like sculls and process slags from Elkem Thamshavn. The methods investigated are dense medium separation, optical separation, flotation and metallurgical separation by remelting. Dense medium separation trials are conduc...
