In master.cf you have turned on the wakeup timer for the bounce service.
See: man 5 master.
Only these entries have a wakeup timer by default:
pickup fifo n - n 60 1 pickup
qmgr fifo n - n 300 1 qmgr
#qmgr fifo n - n 300 1 oqmgr
tlsmgr unix - - n 1000? 1 tlsmgr
flush unix n - n 1000? 0 flush

It looks something goes wrong with bounces wich are generated for mails send to
users which do not exist on the server. But what do these entries exactly mean
and what can I do to correct them?
You should configure your system so it doesn't accept then
bounce unknown recipients; they should be rejected during SMTP
and not generate a bounce. Accepting and bouncing adds extra
load to your server, clogs your queue with undeliverable
bounces, and annoys innocent forged senders with your
backscatter. Here's a place to start with fixing the problem:
