Reducing Clogging and Iron Contamination in SiO Vacuum Synthesis

The industrial-scale vacuum thermal reduction process for producing Silicon Monoxide (SiO) faces two major issues: severe clogging at the furnace mouth and excessive iron (Fe) contamination in the final product. The clogging occurs at the carbon steel retaining ring and graphite furnace mouth, while the Fe content consistently exceeds 100 ppm. The goal is to mitigate these issues to improve product quality.
