CONTINUOUS PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A COMESTIBLE TABLET

摘要

A continuous process for producing a comestible tablet is disclosed. The process comprises continuously contacting different ingredients together used to prepare the comestible tablet under high shear conditions while atomizing a solvent for at least one of the ingredients into the mixing ingredients. The ingredients are mixed for a time sufficient to allow the ingredients to combine with each other in a substantially uniform manner to produce free flowing particles. The free flowing particles so produced have a substantially uniform distribution of ingredients from particle to particle. The particles are then dried and extruded or compacted into a comestible tablet.
