The diamond wire saw silicon powder (DWSSP) is considered to be a harmful to the environment because of finer particles, the large specific surface area and flammability. Removal of Fe impurity is very essential for recovering Si from DWSSP due to the large amount of Fe introduced during the silicon powder generation process. In the study, the thermodynamics of Fe leaching with HCl was analyzed and determined iron was theoretically present as ions in solution. Furthermore, the effects of different concentrations, temperatures and liquid-solid ratios on Fe leaching from HCl were investigated. The leaching rate of Fe reached 98.37% at the optimal parameters (HCl concentration of 12 wt%, leaching temperature of 333 K, liquid-solid ratio of 15 ml/g) with 100 min. The leaching kinetics of Fe in HCl was analyzed by shrinking core model and homogeneous model, respectively. The study indicated the process of leaching Fe from DWSSP conforms to the secondary reaction model of homogeneous model which coincided with the porous structure of DWSSP due to agglomeration. The apparent activation energy required (49.398 kJ/mol) in the first stage is lower than that (57.817 kJ/mol) in the second stage because of the porous structure. In conclusion, this paper provided a suitable way to purify the diamond wire saw silicon powder. This work provides an important guide for the industrial recovery and preparation of high purity silicon from DWSSP by the most environment-friendly and low-cost approach.

Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC), Ca- and Mg-modified silicon oxycarbide (SiCaOC and SiMgOC) were synthesized via sol-gel processing with subsequent pyrolysis in an inert gas atmosphere. The physicochemical structures of the materials were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, and Si MAS NMR. Biocompatibility and in vitro bioactivity were detected by MTT, cell adhesion assay, and simulated body fluid (SBF) immersion test.

Construction materials are significantly exposed to ecological hazards due to the presence of hazardous chemical constituents found in industrial and agricultural solid wastes. This study aims to investigate the use of sawdust particles (SDPs) and sawdust wastewater (SDW) in alkali-activated composites (AACs) made from a mixture of different silicon-aluminum-based solid wastes (slag powder-SP, red mud-RM, fly ash-FA, and carbide slag-CS). The study examines the impact of SDP content, treated duration of SDPs, and SDW content on both fresh and hardened properties of the AACs, including electrical conductivity, fluidity, density, flexural and compressive strengths, and drying shrinkage.

Successive crop harvest results in soil silicon (Si) loss, which constantly reduces soil available Si. Agricultural measures that can increase the availability of soil Si are in urgent need in agroecosystems. Enhanced weathering of silicate minerals can effectively replenish soil Si, which will promote plant uptake of Si, formation of plant phytolith occluded carbon (PhytOC), and the sequestration of atmospheric CO.

By analyzing variations in the intensity correlation functions of speckle patterns generated from backscattered light, the RICO-scan was applied to an unpolished silicon surface and silicon powders, providing information on the intensity dependence of the complex refractive index. Numerical simulations based on Fresnel equations and speckle propagation corroborated the experimental results, demonstrating RICO-scan's robustness and versatility.

Photovoltaic-driven electrochemical (PV-EC) carbon dioxide reduction (COR) coupled with sulfide oxidation (SOR) can efficiently convert the solar energy into chemical energy, expanding its applications. However, developing low-cost electrocatalysts that exhibit high selectivity and efficiency for both COR and SOR remains a challenge. Herein, a bifunctional copper selenide catalyst is developed with copper vacancies (v-CuSe) for the COR-SOR.
