Silicon briquette ikozwe muri silicon slag, ibicuruzwa biva mu bicuruzwa bya silicon, bizwi kandi nk'izina rya silicon slag, icyuma cya silicon. Ibirimo Si ntabwo biri munsi ya Silicon Metal cyangwa Ferrosilicon. Silicon iri mumashanyarazi ya silicon ikora hamwe na ogisijeni mu itanura kugirango itange SiO2 icyarimwe, irekura ubushyuhe bwinshi, bushobora kuzamura neza ubushyuhe bwitanura, kongera umuvuduko wicyuma gishongeshejwe, kongera ikirango, no kuvugurura ubukana na ubushobozi bwo gukata itera itera. Imiterere ya briquette yatumye byoroha gushonga kandi umukungugu muke mugihe ukoresheje. Silicon slag irashobora gukoreshwa mubyuma byicyuma gishongesha ibyuma byingurube, guta bisanzwe, nibindi. Igiciro gito, cyabaye icyiza cyiza cyicyuma cya silicon na ferrosilicon nka deoxidizer mubikorwa byo gukora ibyuma. Inganda nyinshi ninshi zemeye iki gicuruzwa kwisi yose.
Zhenan Metallurgy, abatanga silikoni briquette, ikora silicon briquette hamwe na silicon slag ikoresha ikoranabuhanga rigezweho hamwe nibikoresho bigezweho byo kugerageza inganda ibihumbi n'ibihumbi zitanga ibicuruzwa byiza bya briquette.
