Abstract
The slag portion can easily be removed from molten mixtures of slag and silicon by subjecting such mixtures to a hydrostatic pressure difference with respect to a space separated from them by one or more separating walls of graphite or silicon carbide, preferably provided with circular to slot-shaped apertures. Such separating walls are permeable to both the slag and silicon when present alone, but permeable only to the slag when a molten mixture of slag and silicon is present.
