Abstract
With the method of processing liquids, fine to very fine organic and/or inorganic granular particles are used, whereby pursuant to the invention the particles are mixed and compressed together in a first step to form an agglomerate that is heated at least to a temperature that is near the melting point thereof. The particles are thereby fixed in place by being subjected to a process similar to sintering for a suitable length of time, whereupon the resulting agglomerate is screened, or reduced in size in a grinder, to a granular size that is suitable for an intended use. This enables stabilizing and filtering aids to be produced with predetermined or predictable physical or chemical properties that are suitable for specific processes.
