The present invention relates to a method for drying wet particulate matter, wherein at least one feed stream () of wet particulate matter is contacted with superheated steam () within at least one drying chamber () with a mixing system, and the dried particulate matter is discharged as at least one product stream () to obtain the dried particulate matter. 1. Method for drying wet particulate matter , wherein the dried particulate matter is a white mineral having a brightness Ry of at least 65% measured according to DIN 53163 , the method comprising the steps of{'b': '1', 'a) providing at least one feed stream () of wet particulate matter,'}{'b': 40', '41', '42', '40, 'b) providing a recirculation circuit comprising at least one drying chamber (), at least one circulation fan (), and at least one heat exchanger (), wherein the at least one drying chamber () comprises a mixing system and mixed particulate matter, at least one inlet for the feed stream of wet particulate matter, at least one inlet for superheated steam, and at least one outlet for exhaust steam,'}{'b': 1', '40, 'c) feeding, either continuously or discontinuously, the at least one feed stream () of wet particulate matter into the mixed particulate matter in the at least one drying chamber () via the at least one inlet for the feed stream,'}{'b': 6', '40, 'd) feeding superheated steam () into the at least one drying chamber () via the at least one inlet for superheated steam,'}{'b': 40', '3', '3, 'e) directly contacting the mixed particulate matter with superheated steam within the at least one drying chamber () to dry the mixed particulate matter and exhausting said steam via the at least one outlet for exhaust steam () without separating from the exhaust steam () any carried particulate matter,'}{'b': 3', '4', '5', '42', '6', '41', '42', '40, 'f) feeding the exhaust steam (, , ) into the at least one heat exchanger (), in which the exhaust steam is reheated to provide superheated steam (), wherein the ...
