The discharge port 22 penetrates the bottom of the insulation board 8. The heat exchange pipe 10 penetrates the left and right sides of the insulation board 8.
[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the heat exchange pipe 10 is wrapped around the outside of the storage silo 1 to prevent magnesium slag from falling into the storage silo 1 and accidentally damaging the heat exchange pipe 10, thus protecting the heat exchange pipe 10. The water pump 11 is started, and the water pump 11 draws cooling water to make the cooling water flow inside the heat exchange pipe 10. Since the heat exchange pipe 10 is tightly wrapped around the outside of the storage silo 1, the heat of the magnesium slag can be continuously discharged. The insulation board 8 and the insulation cotton 9 can insulate the inside of the storage silo 1, overcoming the disadvantage of low efficiency of using waste heat boiler and enhancing the heat exchange effect.
[0027] A second motor 13 is installed at the middle position of the top of the closed perforated plate 12. The output end of the second motor 13 is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft 19. The bottom end of the connecting shaft 19 is fixedly connected to a screw conveyor shaft 20. Stirring rods 18 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the connecting shaft 19. A cover plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the outside of the discharge port 22. A block 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate 21.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, when it is necessary to discharge magnesium slag from the inside of the storage silo 1, the cover plate 21 is opened. After opening the cover plate 21, the second motor 13 is started. The second motor 13 drives the stirring rod 18 and the screw conveyor shaft 20 to rotate through the connecting shaft 19. The rotation of the screw conveyor shaft 20 can agitate the magnesium slag inside the storage silo 1 to prevent the magnesium slag in the center from not being discharged. The rotation of the screw conveyor shaft 20 can facilitate the discharge of magnesium slag from the inside of the discharge port 22, preventing the magnesium slag from getting stuck inside the discharge port 22 and affecting the discharge.
[0029] A frame 2 is provided on the left side of the bottom of the storage bin 1. A conveyor belt 4 is provided inside the frame 2.

The water pump 11 is started, drawing cooling water that flows inside the heat exchange pipe 10. Because the pipe 10 is tightly wrapped around the outside of the storage silo 1, the heat from the magnesium slag is continuously dissipated. The insulation board 8 and insulation cotton 9 provide insulation for the inside of the storage silo 1, overcoming the low efficiency of using a waste heat boiler and enhancing the heat exchange effect. When it is necessary to discharge the magnesium slag from the inside of the storage silo 1, the cover plate 21 is opened. After opening the cover plate 21, the second... Motor 13, the second motor 13 drives the stirring rod 18 and the screw conveyor shaft 20 to rotate through the connecting shaft 19. The rotation of the screw conveyor shaft 20 can agitate the magnesium slag inside the storage bin 1, preventing the magnesium slag in the center from not being able to dissipate. The rotation of the screw conveyor shaft 20 can also facilitate the discharge of magnesium slag from the inside of the discharge port 22, preventing magnesium slag from getting stuck inside the discharge port 22 and affecting the discharge. The discharged magnesium slag will fall to the top of the conveyor belt 4. Start the first motor 3. The first motor 3 drives the conveyor belt 4 to rotate through the rotating shaft 7 and the drive wheel 6. The magnesium slag is transported away by the conveyor belt 4, which can realize the continuous production of magnesium slag. Using the conveyor belt 4 to transport magnesium slag can also prevent magnesium slag from accumulating at the bottom of the storage bin 1 and affecting the environment.
