A process for the production of ether polycarboxylic acids comprising reacting alkali metal salts of ether carboxylic acids with carbon dioxide in the presence of a silicon compound selected from the group of alkali metal alkoxy-silanolates and alkali metal alkoxy-polysiloxanolates and, optionally, inert diluents at temperatures of 200.degree. to 350.degree.C under pressure, acidify the resulting alkali metal salt of an ether polycarboxylic acid and recovering said ether polycarboxylic acid.
