Production process of silicon tetrachloride
 Silicon tetrachloride is effectively and efficiently produced at a relatively low temperature and at a high yield by (1) feeding a mixture of a silicon dioxide containing substance and carbon to the top of a reactor in which a reaction mixture forms a downwardly flowing moving bed, (2) feeding gaseous boron trichloride to an intermediate portion of the reactor, (3) feeding gaseous chlorine to a portion of the reactor located below the boron trichloride feed portion, and (4) feeding an inert gas to a portion of the reactor located below the chlorine feed portion, whereby a silicon tetrachloride formation reaction is carried out in the moving bed and the formed silicon tetrachloride is recovered from a gas mixture discharged from the top of the reactor.
