Abstract

Slag treatment is one of the pyrometallurgical routes to refine and remove impurities (such as boron) from silicon. Many studies have demonstrated that the rate-controlling step in the process is the mass transfer of boron (B) in the slag phase. Hence, information regarding the B diffusivity is vital. This paper discusses the diffusivity of B in the slag from secondary data collated from previous kinetics studies and compares it with semi-empirical diffusivity equations.
