Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a process for producing a bulk material from two or more different starting materials, wherein at least one of the starting materials has a vapor pressure between 0.1 to 1,000 hPa at 23°C, wherein the liquid content of the starting materials based on the sum of liquid and solid content is at least 5% by weight, wherein the process comprises the steps of i) continuously feeding the starting materials into a continuous dynamic mixer comprising at least one rotating shaft and preferably rotating screw shaft and mixing the starting materials therein, and of ii) continuously transferring the mixture obtained in step i) into a continuous evaporator and processing the mixture therein so as to obtain a bulk material having, at 23°C, a liquid content of less than 3% by weight.
