Abstract: The invention relates to a mixing device (1) with a drum (3, 4) which can receive ingredients, the drum (3, 4) comprising a cylindrical vessel (4), and mixing means, which are able to mix the ingredients in the interior of the cylindrical vessel (4), the mixing means being arranged rotatably about a mixing spindle (6), and is characterised in that the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical vessel (4) extends horizontally and the internal diameter of the drum (3, 4) is larger than the internal length of the drum (3, 4).

Abstract: Method for moistening or wetting bulk material The invention concerns a method for moistening or wetting bulk material. The fluids or pastes are thereby cooled down below their solidification point before being mixed with the bulk material to be wetted. During mixing or after mixing with the bulk material, moistening or wetting is carried out through re-liquidization of the solidified fluids or pastes. This method permits uniform and agglomerate-free moistening or wetting of bulk material.
