         16 . A storage and transport container, comprising:
 the container, wherein the container is a metal container; and   a cored wire, which is wound into a coil, wherein the cored wire comprises a hazardous material, wherein the coil has a winding axis and an outer diameter, and wherein the container comprises:
 a) a bottom plate having a first side and a second side facing away from the first side, 
 b) an outer wall connected to the bottom plate, 
 c) at least one removal opening for the cored wire, 
 d) at least one lid, which is connected to the outer wall, and which covers the removal opening, and 
   wherein the bottom plate, the outer wall and the lid form an interior space for safely storing and for safely transporting the cored wire, which is wound into a coil, and wherein the coil is positioned within the container in such a way that the winding axis of the coil is perpendicular to the bottom plate of the container.   
     
     
         17 . The storage and transport container according  claim 16 , wherein the outer wall comprises at least three outer partial walls, having an identical edge length, of which two in each case are connected to each other with an interlocking fit, forming an inner angle of 60 to 150°. 
     
     
         18 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the metal container is essentially in the shape of a cuboid, cube or cylinder. 
     
     
         19 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the outer wall is integrally bonded or is connected with an interlocking fit to the bottom plate. 
     
     
         20 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the cored wire comprises a filling which is sensitive to at least one of oxygen, water or moisture. 
     
     
         21 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the cored wire comprises at least one of calcium, calcium carbide, calcium silicide, calcium-iron mixtures, magnesium, magnesium alloys, calcium cyanamide or mixtures of said substances. 
     
     
         22 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the coil is a coreless coil. 
     
     
         23 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the coil may be unwound from the inside to the outside. 
     
     
         24 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the coil is connected with a force fit or an interlocking fit to the outer wall. 
     
     
         25 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the surface area of the bottom plate is larger than the surface area enclosed by the outer wall. 
     
     
         26 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the first side of the bottom plate forms the interior space with the outer wall and the lid and a substructure is positioned on the second side of the bottom plate. 
     
     
         27 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 26 , wherein the substructure comprises insertion pockets for a lifting truck. 
     
     
         28 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the lid is provided in two parts. 
     
     
         29 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the container also has a removal device for the cored wire. 
     
     
         30 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 29 , wherein the removal device is positioned in the region of the removal opening of the container and/or is removably connected to the container. 
     
     
         31 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 29 , wherein the removal device protrudes, at least at one position, beyond the outer diameter of the coil. 
     
     
         32 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the metal container is made from at least one of iron, steel, or stainless steel. 
     
     
         33 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 16 , wherein the container comprises at least one stacking corner, in particular at least two stacking corners, particularly preferred at least three stacking corners and more particularly preferred at least four stacking corners. 
     
     
         34 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 33 , wherein the stacking corners are specified in such a way that the inner dimension of the stacking corners is larger than the outer dimension of the bottom region. 
     
     
         35 . The storage and transport container according to  claim 33 , wherein the floor space for the container to be stacked is lower at the stacking corners than the total height of the container.
