I’ve been looking into producing Semiconductor Grade Silicone Powder but I haven’t been able to decide between the Plasma, CVD, or more traditional furnace with reduction agent methods without knowing their operational costs. It would be kind of out of my price range to test each of them.
I can run some basic numbers if anybody knows a good industrial catalogue for the equipment.
Imagine everything currently produced on earth loses about a third of its efficiency/affordability and a large chunk of everything has shortages/unavailability for the next 30 years.
Now imagine with the loss of trade relationships diplomacy slowly returns to that of the dark ages and a new era of war begins.
Things we take for advantage are peace and prosperity.
