Abstract

The invention provides a method for purifying silicon by means of a phase separation dealloying reaction, including: mixing a silicon raw material containing metallic or non-metallic impurities with magnesium powder first and then fully reacting under an inert atmosphere so as to obtain a first product; placing the first product in a nitrogen-containing atmosphere to undergo a nitriding reaction to form three-dimensional porous silicon and magnesium nitride distributed in pore channels thereof so as to obtain a second product, the impurities further being separated during the precipitation and crystallization of silicon, and being dissolved in the liquid-phase magnesium nitride; treating the second product by using acid-pickling, the magnesium nitride and impurities being dissolved and converted into a solution, and a solid product being high-purity porous silicon.
