PROCESSES FOR MAKING GRANULAR DETERGENT IN A FLUIDIZED BED GRANULATOR HAVING RECYCLING OF IMPROPERLY SIZED PARTICLES

摘要

A process for the production of granular detergent compositions is providedwherein fluid bed granulation is em-ployed in conjunction with selected recycle of oversized particles to controlthe uniformity of the resulting detergent composition.The process comprises feeding starting ingredients into a fluid bed granulatorto at least partially granulate the feed material whileemploying the fluid bed to control undersized particle generation and sizingin conjunction with recycle to control oversized particles.
