Apparatus and method for producing trichlorosilane

摘要

An apparatus and a method for producing trichlorosilane are provided, which effectively suppresses the reaction converting trichlorosilane to tetrachlorosilane and the formation of polymers, thereby achieving a high recovery ratio of trichlorosilane. The apparatus for producing trichlorosilane includes: a converter reactor for converting a raw material gas containing tetrachlorosilane and hydrogen into a reaction product gas; a cooler for cooling the reaction product gas fed from the converter reactor; and a plurality of provided in the cooler for spraying cooling liquids. Average droplet diameters of the cooling liquids sprayed from a plurality of the nozzles are different from each other, and a cooling liquids volume sprayed from each of the plurality of nozzles is able to be individually adjusted.
