    Abstract: Continuous production of alkali metal salts of nitrilotriacetic acid from an alkali metal cyanide, formaldehyde and ammonia by reaction of the components in at least two stages, the alkali metal cyanide being reacted with formaldehyde in stoichiometric or substantially stoichiometric ratio at temperatures of 50 DEG to 200 DEG and pressures of from atmospheric pressure to 50 atmospheres gauge in the presence of an excess of ammonia in the first stage and (while simultaneously removing ammonia) further amounts of alkali metal cyanide and formaldehyde being allowed to act at temperatures of 60 DEG to 110 DEG C in one or more subsequent stages, 5 to 35 mole percent of the total amount of alkali metal cyanide required being replaced by free hydrocyanic acid and/or hydroxyacetonitrile.
