1. A method for thawing of means of transport and/or means of traction transporting bulk material, comprising:
providing water vapor;
introducing water vapor into a thawing chamber, wherein the means of transport and/or means of traction transporting bulk material and to be thawed is at least partially located in the thawing chamber, air loaded with the water vapor and having a preset dew point temperature TT is generated in the thawing chamber, the dew point temperature TT is adapted to the means of transport and/or means of traction transporting bulk material, and the dew point temperature TT of the air loaded with water vapor is adjusted to a temperature TTM of the means of transport or the means of traction transporting bulk material.
