A free-flowing washing powder of low specific gravity (powder density 300 to 500 g/l) and containing large quantities of nonionic surfactants is produced by spray-drying an aqueous suspension containing on the spray-dried basis (A) from 15 to 30% by weight of nonionic tensides, (B) from 8 to 18% by

A free-flowing washing powder of low specific gravity (powder density 300 to 500 g/l) and containing large quantities of nonionic surfactants is produced by spray-drying an aqueous suspension containing on the spray-dried basis (A) from 15 to 30% by weight of nonionic tensides, (B) from 8 to 18% by weight of sodium silicate, (C) from 25 to 55% by weight of finely crystalline zeolite, (D) from 0 to 25% by weight of sodium tripolyphosphate, (E) no more than 3% by weight of soap and synthetic anionic tensides, and from 35 to 50% by weight of water. The suspension, which has a temperature of from 75°C. to 90°C., is sprayed through nozzles into a drying zone under a pressure of from 35 to 100 bar. The drying gas flowing in countercurrent has an entry temperature of from 160°C. to 240°C. and an exit temperature of from 80°C. to 95°C. The spray-dried product contains from 9 to 16% by weight of water which is removable at a drying temperature of 130°C.

A process for the production of a spray-dried, pourable washing aid containing nonionic surface-active agents of the ethoxylated alcohol type and having a powder density of from 300 g/l to 550 g/l, comprising the steps of (1) spraying an aqueous suspension of from 50 to 65 parts by weight of constituents of the following composition where all percentages, based on anhydrous constituents, are percent by weight of the spray-dried product: (A) from 15 to 30% by weight of at least one nonionic surface-active agent of the ethoxylated alcohol type; (B) from 8 to 18% by weight of sodium silicate having the composition Na2O:SiO2 of 1:1.5 to 1:3.4; (C) from 25 to 55% by weight of finely crystalline, synthetic zeolite selected from the group consisting of zeolite NaA, zeolite NaX and mixtures thereof; (D) from 8 to 20% by weight of pentasodium tripolyphosphate; and (E) from 0 to 3% by weight of anionic surface-active compounds selected from the group consisting of soaps, sulfonates and sulfates, in from 35 to 50 parts by weight of water at a temperature of 75°to 90°C. through nozzles under a pressure of from 35 to 100 bar into a spray-drying zone in which the drying gas flowing in countercurrent has an entry temperature of from 160°to 240°C. and an exit temperature of from 80°to 95°C.; and (2) recovering a spray-dried product containing from 13 to 21% by weight of water, of which water from 9 to 16% by weight is removable on heating said spray-dried product at 130°C.
