Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid uses

• Textile industry Prevents metal ion impurities
  from modifying colours of dyed products.

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid uses

• Laundry Reduces water hardness by dissolving
  scales of Ca2, Mg2, and cations, which are then
  less likely to interfere with soaps and detergents

Scrubbing Removes hydrogen sulphide from gas
streams. This conversion is achieved by oxidizing
the hydrogen sulphide to elemental sulphur, which
is non-volatile.
