  2. Chlorine production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine_production

    Key to the production of chlorine is the operation of the brine saturation/treatment system. Maintaining a properly saturated solution with the correct purity is vital, especially for membrane cells. Many plants have a salt pile which is sprayed with recycled brine. Others have slurry tanks that are fed raw salt and recycled brine.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_(chemistry)

    Making a saline water solution by dissolving table salt in water.The salt is the solute and the water the solvent. In chemistry, a solution is defined by IUPAC as "A liquid or solid phase containing more than one substance, when for convenience one (or more) substance, which is called the solvent, is treated differently from the other substances, which are called solutes.

  4. Brine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brine

    Brine (or briny water) is water with a high-concentration solution of salt (typically sodium chloride or calcium chloride).In diverse contexts, brine may refer to the salt solutions ranging from about 3.5% (a typical concentration of seawater, on the lower end of that of solutions used for brining foods) up to about 26% (a typical saturated solution, depending on temperature).

    Salt is also used to increase the curing of concrete in cemented casings. [10] In textiles and dyeing, salt is used as a brine rinse to separate organic contaminants, [12] to promote "salting out" of dyestuff precipitates, and to blend with concentrated dyes to increase yield in dyebaths and make the colors look sharper. One of its main roles ...

  6. Open-pan salt making - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-pan_salt_making

    Open-pan salt making is a method of salt production wherein salt is extracted from brine using open pans. Virtually all European domestic salt is obtained by solution-mining of underground salt formations, although some is still obtained by the solar evaporation of seawater.

    The solution is alkaline if K a < K b. Anions hydrolyze more than cations, causing an exceeding concentration of OH − ions. The solution is expected to be neutral only when K a = K b. [12] Other possible factors that could vary pH level of a solution are the relevant equilibrium constants and the additional amounts of any base or acid.
