  • Patent number: 10047413
    Abstract: A method for smelting magnesium quickly and continuously includes: preparing dolomite or magnesite with reductants and fluorite at a predetermined ratio, uniformly mixing the prepared ingredients to obtain pellets, and calcining the obtained pellets in an argon or nitrogen atmosphere; continuously feeding the high-temperature calcined pellets (without being cooled) under argon protection into a reduction furnace, and performing a high-temperature reduction reaction in a flowing argon atmosphere to obtain high-temperature magnesium steam; and enabling the high-temperature magnesium steam to be carried out of the high-temperature reduction furnace by an argon flow, and performing condensation to obtain metal magnesium. The present invention eliminates a vacuum system and a vacuum reduction tank, so that quick and continuous production of the metal magnesium is realized, the reduction time is shortened to 90 min or less, and the recovery rate of magnesium is increased to 88% or more.

  • Publication number: 20180139280
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods are disclosed for cluster switching. An exemplary method may include synchronizing original data on a first cluster to a second cluster after starting to switch clusters. A priority of the original data on the second cluster is set to a lower priority. The method may also include responding to a write operation request on the second cluster in the period of synchronizing the original data on the first cluster to the second cluster. A priority of new data corresponding to the write operation request is set to a higher priority. A version of data with a higher priority can overwrite another version of data. The method may further include responding to the write operation request on the second cluster after synchronizing the original data on the first cluster to the second cluster.
