APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING SLURRY

摘要

A novel apparatus and process for producing slurry, the apparatus including a mill having an integral heating means, a solid feed means for feeding a lumpy solid into the mill, a liquid feed means for feeding a first liquid into the mill, and a liquid removal means for selectively removing a second liquid contained within the lumpy solid and having a boiling point different from that of the first liquid; the second liquid is evaporated by heating during the crushing of the lumpy solid when mixed with the first liquid within said mill, the mill having means for mixing and stirring the liquid/solid mixture to produce a slurry. The process including steps for heating and crushing a first liquid/solid mixture and simultaneously removing a second liquid contained within the solid.
