    摘要: Salt production can include preparing hydrohalite particles by crystallization from saturated brine, adding the hydrohalite particles to a salt brine, thereby forming a hydrohalite-salt brine mixture, agitating the hydrohalite-salt brine mixture until the hydrohalite particles have decomposed into NaCl crystals, and filtering out the NaCl crystals from the salt brine. In some instances, an initial temperature of the salt brine prior to adding the hydrohalite particles is at least 0° C. In some instances, a ratio of salt brine to hydrohalite particles, by weight, is from 0.4 to 29.

    摘要: An evaporation still for producing sea salt having a chamber that contains a bottom, a plurality of sides including a front side, a back side, a first side, and a second side, the front side and the back side being substantially parallel, and the first side and the second size being substantially parallel, and a top. The top contains a centered portion extending from the first side to the second side, the centered portion being substantially parallel to the front side and the back side, a first window extending in a downward slope from the centered portion towards the front side, and a second window extending in a downward slope from the centered portion towards the back side. The evaporation still also contains a plurality of legs. The first window extends from the centered portion beyond the front side such that condensation formed inside of the chamber drains outside of the chamber, and the second window extends from the centered portion beyond the back side such that condensation formed inside of the chamber drains outside of the chamber.

    摘要: A sodium chloride recovery method for upgrading a mixed salt stream from lower sodium chloride purity to an increased sodium chloride purity is provided. The salt recovery method utilizes the solubility properties of the impurities in the mixed salt to preferentially dissolve them over sodium chloride. As the impurities are removed from the solid phase using a salt stripper, sodium chloride rich slurry is generated. The rich salt slurry is processed by an upgrader to remove the remaining impurities. The upgraded sodium chloride slurry is dewatered and washed in the phase separator to generate sodium chloride salt at a higher purity.
