I-silicon ye-powder yensimbi yinto ebalulekileyo yemveliso ekrwada, esetyenziswa ngokubanzi kwi-semiconductors, amandla elanga, i-alloys, i-rubber kunye nezinye iindawo. Kwiminyaka yakutshanje, ngophuhliso olukhawulezayo lwamashishini asezantsi, imakethi ye-silicon yentsimbi yehlabathi ibonise umkhwa wokukhula okuzinzileyo.

I-China izimise ngokuqinileyo njengomvelisi ophambili wehlabathi kunye nomthengisi we-silicon yesinyithi, ilawula indawo ebalaseleyo kwimarike yehlabathi. Umzi mveliso wesinyithi we-silicon welizwe awufezekanga kuphela imfuno yasekhaya kodwa uye waba ngumboneleli oyimfuneko kumashishini kwihlabathi liphela. 

Kwinkqubo yokuvelisa isinyithi, ukongeza umlinganiselo othile wezinto zokudibanisa kunokuphucula kakhulu ukusebenza kwentsimbi. I-Ferrosilicon, njengento eqhelekileyo ye-alloy, isetyenziswa ngokubanzi kwishishini lensimbi. Ukongezwa kwayo kunokuphucula umgangatho, iimpawu zomatshini kunye nokumelana nokubola kwentsimbi. Eli nqaku liza kwazisa ukubunjwa, indlela yokusebenza kunye nokusetyenziswa kwe-ferrosilicon ngensimbi, kunye nefuthe layo ekusebenzeni kwensimbi.

I-Ferrosilicon yi-alloy ebalulekileyo ekuveliseni isinyithi kunye nentsimbi, kwaye sele ifunwa kakhulu kwiminyaka yamuva. Ngenxa yoko, ixabiso ngetoni nganye ye-ferrosilicon liye laguquguquka, okwenza kube nzima kwiinkampani ukucwangcisa kunye nohlahlo lwabiwo-mali ngokufanelekileyo.

Kwishishini lentsimbi yanamhlanje, i-ferrosilicon idlala indima ebalulekileyo. Njengomxube wesinyithi otyebileyo we-silicon, ayisiyongezo esiyimfuneko kuphela kwimveliso yentsimbi, kodwa kwakhona sisixhobo esiphambili semathiriyeli yezinto eziphikisayo kunye neendawo ezingaxhathisiyo.

I-Ferrosilicon yekamva ipleyiti yokothuka iyaqhuba, indawo yokubonelela iqinile, imveliso yasekuseni yasefektri inikezela ngama-72 # 930-959 USD / tonne.
