Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for upgrading silicon-containing solid residues obtained after leaching of copper from copper-containing residues from direct synthesis of organochlorosilanes. Solid residue, optionally together with an oxidation agent, is supplied to a smelting furnace where the residues are melted and form a molten metallic phase substantially containing silicon and a calcium silicate slag and tapping of the molten metallic phase and an inert slag from the smelting furnace.
