The induced draft fan 3 and the valve of the second normal temperature air inlet are opened. At this time, the normal temperature air entering the second bright annealing furnace 2 from the second normal temperature air inlet begins to cool the second bright annealing furnace 2. At the same time, the waste heat is transferred to the boiler 4 through the induced draft fan 3 so that it is heated to produce 100-degree boiling water based on the waste heat temperature, realizing more than 50% heat energy recovery.
