1. Converter steelmaking link: in the process of converter steelmaking, iron after a series of smelting operations such as oxygen blowing, will produce a large number of high-temperature slag. slag tank at this time to take up the important task of holding these slag, usually made of casting process of large slag tank, can withstand a high temperature of about 1600 ℃. After smelting, the slag tank filled with slag will be lifted to the location by travelling vehicle for subsequent processing, such as reuse of slag or harmless disposal, to avoid slag pollution to the environment. 

2. Electric Furnace Steelmaking Process: Electric Furnace Steelmaking also produces high-temperature slag, slag tanks play a similar role in this link. The difference is that, due to the electric furnace steelmaking raw materials and process characteristics, the composition and nature of the slag produced with the converter steelmaking differences. However, the slag tank still needs to have good high temperature resistance and mechanical strength, to ensure that there is no leakage in the transport and storage process, to ensure the continuity and safety of production.
