[VIDEO] First pilot campaign: Production of Silicon metal utilising waste from the PV industry

Northern Silicon AS and SINTEF have joined forces and successfully conducted a first pilot campaign, during which for the first time we produced silicon metal utilising waste from the PV industry. In this campaign, virgin high purity quartz raw material is replaced by pot scrap, a quartz crucible waste product incurring in silicon ingot manufacturing.
