This invention relates to a process for the production of polycarbonate agglomerate of high bulk density from polycarbonate solutions, in which the organic solvent is stripped from a solution of polycarbonate by means of steam, and which is characterised in that the resulting suspension of polycarbonate particles, condensed water and water- and solvent vapor is fed in a tube or tubular heat exchanger to a separator which is partially filled with water and which is under elevated pressure. The polycarbonate agglomerates are discharged, together with part of the water, via a pressure lock at the bottom of the separator.
