HIGH DENSITY DETERGENT-MAKING PROCESS INVOLVING A MODERATE SPEED MIXER/DENSIFIER

摘要

A process for producing high density detergent compositions is provided. The process is a continuous process during which high density detergent agglomerates are produced by feeding a surfactant paste and dry starting detergent material into a moderate speed mixer/densifier having a centrally positioned rotating shaft and at least one high speed chopper. The surfactan t paste is inputted at least one location along the length of the moderate spe ed mixer/densifier to achieve optimal build-up agglomeration. The proces produc es a free flowing, high density detergent composition which can be commercially sold as a low dosage or "compact" detergent composition.
