  2. Salt evaporation pond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_evaporation_pond

    Salt evaporation pond in Manaure, La Guajira, Colombia. A salt evaporation pond is a shallow artificial salt pan designed to extract salts from sea water or other brines.The salt pans are shallow and expansive, allowing sunlight to penetrate and reach the seawater.

  3. Evaporation pond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporation_pond

    Evaporation ponds are artificial ponds with very large surface areas that are designed to efficiently evaporate water by sunlight and expose water to the ambient temperatures. [1] Evaporation ponds are inexpensive to design making it ideal for multiple purposes such as wastewater treatment processes, storage, and extraction of minerals .

  4. Hydrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrometer

    A NASA worker using a hydrometer to measure the brine density of a salt evaporation pond. Modern hydrometers usually measure specific gravity but different scales were (and sometimes still are) used in certain industries. Examples include: API gravity, universally used worldwide by the petroleum industry.

  5. Brine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brine

    A NASA technician measures the concentration level of brine using a hydrometer at a salt evaporation pond in San Francisco.. Brines are produced in multiple ways in nature. Modification of seawater via evaporation results in the concentration of salts in the residual fluid, a characteristic geologic deposit called an evaporite is formed as different dissolved ions reach the saturation states ...

  6. Open-pan salt making - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-pan_salt_making

    A salt-on-salt process strengthens brine by dissolving rock salt and/or crystal salt in weak brine or seawater before evaporation. Solar evaporation uses the sun to strengthen and evaporate seawater trapped on the sea-shore to make sea salt crystals, or to strengthen and evaporate brine sourced from natural springs where it is made into white ...

  7. Salinometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salinometer

    A salinometer. A salinometer is a device designed to measure the salinity, or dissolved salt content, of a solution.. Since the salinity affects both the electrical conductivity and the specific gravity of a solution, a salinometer often consist of an ec meter or hydrometer and some means of converting those readings to a salinity reading.

  8. Sečovlje Saltworks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sečovlje_Saltworks

    The Sečovlje Saltworks (Slovene: Sečoveljske soline; Italian: Saline di Sicciole) is the largest Slovenian salt evaporation pond. Along with the Strunjan Saltworks , they are the northernmost Mediterranean saltworks and one of the few where salt is still produced in a traditional way, as well as a wetland of international importance and a ...

  9. Bittern (salt) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bittern_(salt)

    Bittern is commonly formed in salt ponds where the evaporation of water prompts the precipitation of halite. These salt ponds can be part of a salt-producing industrial facility, or they can be used as a waste storage location for brines produced in desalination processes. [3] Bittern is a source of many useful salts.
