PUREVAP QRR 3-4N Silicon 1step vs Traditional Smelters Summary why Purevap can and will be game changing disruptive:
Conventional plants produce ONLY 98 % to 99.5 % Purity Silicon
- Need 6 tonnes (t) of Feedstock to produce 1 t of Silicon (Si)
- IF 2N+ (99.5%) Si production requires further oxidative refining increasing opex cost
- IF 3N+ (99.9%) Si requires further additional purification further increasing its costs
- Scalable by minimum increments of about 30,000 tonnes per year (TPY)
- Minimum investment needed to build a new plant around US$ 300 M
- On average, it costs about US$ 2,000/t to make ONLY 98% Si (MG Si)
PUREVAPTM QRR process can produce 3-4N % Silicon (Si) in one step:
- Will produce in one step 3N to 4N+ Si using 25% less feedstock
- QRR process expected to make 3N to 4N Si for LESS THAN < US$ 2,000/t what it costs conventional plant to produce 1N Si
- HPQ QRR will make silicon-based materials perfectly suited for battery and other high-value applications for less than any competitors
- Scalable by minimum increments of 2,500 TPY
- Minimum investment 85% - 90% less than conventional plant
Long and strong HPQ!!!!!!!
