When the driving motor 7 works, it drives the driving gear 8 on the output shaft to rotate, thereby driving the dehydration cylinder 4 on the driven gear ring 9 to rotate, and the sodium alginate is dehydrated at a high speed. A discharge mechanism 2 is provided at the bottom of the dehydration cylinder 4, a feeding pipe 5 is provided on the surface of the water collection cylinder 1, and a water outlet pipe 6 is provided at the bottom of the water collection cylinder 1.
