    Abstract: Process for making a powder or granule containing



    (A) at least one chelating agent selected from alkali metal salts of methyl glycine diacetic acid (MGDA) and of iminodisuccinic acid (IDS),
    (B) at least one compound of general formula (I a) or (I b)












    wherein A1 is selected from (CH2)a wherein the variable a is in the range of from 4 to 20,
    e is selected from zero and 1, and
    R1 being the same or different and selected from O—C1-C10-alkyl and C1-C10-alkyl,

    and, optionally,




    (C) at least one homo- or copolymer of (meth)acrylic acid, partially or fully neutralized with alkali,

    said process comprising the steps of


    (a) providing an aqueous solution or slurry containing chelating agent (A) and said compound (B) and, if applicable, (co)polymer (C), with a pH value in the range of from 10 to 12,
    (b) removing most of said water by spray drying or spray granulation.

    Abstract: Process for making a powder or granule containing at least one chelating agent selected from alkali metal salts of methyl glycine diacetic acid (MGDA) and glutamic acid diacetate (GLDA) and iminodisuccinic acid (IDS), said process comprising the steps of (a) introducing an aqueous solution or aqueous slurry of the respective chelating agent (A) into a spray-dryer or spray-granulator, and removing most of said water by spray-drying or spray granulation using a gas with an inlet temperature of 125 to 250° C., (b) withdrawing powder or granules, respectively, from the spray-dryer or spray-granulator, respectively, (c) separating off fmes from said powder or granules, wherein said fmes have a maximum particle diameter of 350 (d) separating off lumps from said powder or granules, wherein said lumps have a particle diameter of 1,500 μm or more, (e) milling said lumps to a maximum particle diameter of 500 μm, (f) re-introducing said fmes from step (c) and milled lumps from step (e) into the spray-dryer or spray-granulator, wherein the share of fines is in the range of from 0.5 to 20% by weight of the total chelating agent (A) withdrawn in step (b) and the share of milled lumps is in the range of from 5 to 60% by weight of the total chelating agent (A) withdrawn in step (b).
