Abstract

The specification discloses a system and method for producing a particulate MBOCA product including relatively uniformly sized granules. The system includes a pan granulator, a dust hood enclosing the granulator pan, and a blower for circulating an air stream through the hood to carry away the heat of fusion of the granulation. In a second aspect, the system includes a novel drum charging apparatus having a filler tube extendable into a drum, a dust cup covering the drum opening when the filler tube is inserted therein, and a vacuum for drawing air through the dust cup. Air displaced from the drum and product particles dispersed therein are therefore drawn into the vacuum for subsequent recovery of product particles.
