Abstract

PURPOSE:To prepare a mixture of carbon and elemental silicon or silicon oxide, continuously, without problems of dust and noise, by injecting a specific silicon compound and a hydrocarbon at the same time into a hot gas. CONSTITUTION:A silicon compound which produces elemental silicon or SiO2 by thermal decomposition, oxidation or hydrolysis (e.g. SiCl4, SiH4, CH3SiCl3, etc.) is introduced together with a hydrocarbon which produces elemental carbon by thermal decomposition (e.g. naphtha, propane, petroleum pitch, etc.) into hot gas of preferably >=700 deg.C. In contrast to the conventional mechanical mixing process, the present process is free of the problems of the working environment such as dust, noise, etc., and different from the batch process, it produces the mixture of carbon and elemental silicon or silicon oxide continuously. A high purity silicon carbide which is a promising ceramic material having excellent high temperature strength and corrosion resistance at high temperature can be prepared by igniting the mixture.

Conventionally, silicon carbide is produced by pulverizing and mixing silicon dioxide such as silica sand with a carbonaceous material such as coke, and then forming the solid phase shown in equation (1) under high temperature using, for example, an Acheson-type direct current resistance furnace. A common method is to obtain it by reaction.

(1) In this method, a mechanical method using a ball mill or the like is used to grind and mix the raw materials, for example, silica sand and coke, and a batch method is generally adopted. Therefore, there are problems in the work environment, such as complicated work processes during mixing and charging of raw materials and when taking them out, as well as generation of moving dust and noise during pulverization and mixing. Also, silica sand and coke usually contain AL, Fe, Ni, Na, M
In this method, these impurities are ultimately included in the product silicon carbide without being removed as they are, so in order to obtain highly pure silicon carbide, further post-processing is required. I had to do some cleaning etc.

That is, the present invention is a new method for producing elemental silicon or a mixture of silicon oxide and carbon, in which a silicon compound and a hydrocarbon are simultaneously charged into hot gas to produce at least elemental silicon or silicon oxide and carbon. It is characterized in that it is obtained by generating powder contained in hot gas and collecting the powder. The present invention is a method in which a silicon compound and a hydrocarbon are chemically reacted in hot gas, that is, a powder is generated through thermal decomposition, oxidation, hydrolysis, etc., which is completely different from conventional mechanical mixing methods. There are no working environment problems such as dust or noise, and unlike batch systems, the mixture can be obtained continuously, which significantly reduces the complexity of the conventional work process, and also eliminates the possibility of contamination with impurities due to wear of the mixer itself. There is no such problem.

There is also a wide range of hydrocarbons to choose from. For example, not only petroleum products such as naphtha, propane, kerosene, light oil, and heavy oil, but also refining residues such as petroleum pitch, methyl oil, anthracene oil, creosote oil, and even petrochemical distillation residues such as ethylene bottoms can be used. It is. However, depending on the use of the mixture obtained as a result of implementing the present invention, if it is necessary to eliminate the inclusion of specific impurities, it is necessary to select the silicon compounds and hydrocarbons used as raw materials from this viewpoint. From this point of view, impurities that need to be excluded must be excluded from at least silicon compounds and hydrocarbons in the present invention. Removal of specific impurities for this purpose can be easily accomplished by simple operations such as distillation, adsorption, and washing.

Since both the hydrocarbons and the specific silicon compounds used in the practice of this invention can already or easily be made into fluids, injection of these compounds into the hot gas is simply a matter of injecting the desired amount through a nozzle. nothing.

The temperature of the hot gas is preferably 700C or higher. At temperatures above this level, elemental silicon or silicon dioxide can be extracted from the silicon compound represented by the general formula specified in the present invention.
In addition, elemental carbons from hydrocarbons are obtained in the form of solids in hot air streams. Note that under these conditions, silicon oxide is also produced in addition to silicon dioxide and is contained in the powder, but this does not interfere with the practice of the present invention because it easily becomes silicon dioxide. However, if the temperature is below this temperature, sufficient formation of elemental silicon or elemental carbon becomes insufficient, and it becomes increasingly difficult to obtain a desired mixture.

Various commonly used methods can be used to obtain the hot gas, but a simple method is to combust hydrogen, methane, acetylene, etc., or a hydrocarbon itself as a raw material with air. Note that the silicon compounds used in the practice of the present invention include those that generate silicon oxide powder through a hydrolysis reaction when they come into contact with gas containing water vapor even at temperatures below 700C; Furthermore, even if silicon oxide is formed in the hot gas, the process of converting it into elemental silicon or silicon dioxide does not impede the implementation of the present invention.
