Our high-efficiency processes yield the high-purity salt used for food and many other applications.
We begin by injecting water into an underground salt deposit to create saturated brine. The brine is drawn out and evaporated in a series of large crystallizers. As the water evaporates, salt crystals grow. The crystals are then washed to remove impurities. In the final phases, salt is passed through a filter-dryer and then on to a processing area. The end result is a high-purity crystallized salt.
