Do you know how the process of making salt?

                     Salt is a very important commodity for the life of our society, just imagine if no salt will be tasteless feels our life as the saying goes. Salt can not only be consumed but salt can also be categorized in industrial materials, such as leather tanning industry, offshore oil drilling etc.


                The process of making salt traditionally can be spelled out there are two types namely by the method of evaporation with sunlight in salt ponds and by boiling technique (boiled salt).

                 For salt-making processes with the evaporation of sunlight, salt farmers usually make salt by means of plots for evaporation, to obtain good salt yields with large crystals, salt farmers usually directly vaporize seawater that flows on plots to produce levels baume (high density / thickness / thickness) of about 20 - 25 Be (for Baumemeter measurements) but usually for traditional farmers using instinct alone, very rarely do traditional farmers use baumemeter tools.

                  
                  After draining the water on each plot to produce the desired baume content by the technique of solar evaporation, after which the sea water is inserted into a special plot for the salt table and then evaporated with sunlight for 7 days then by itself the water will be reduced and become salt crystals.

                  Unlike the salt boiling process, for the process of making salt by the traditional boiling method is usually the first time is to use salt is still rough that has been so then dissolved with water, after the water is mixed and the salt is dissolved water is usually filtered (filtered) clear water, after going through the water filtration process is boiled by using the embers around 3-4 hours and even more, after that be boiled salt. The difference between boiled salt and salt making using sun evaporation technique is if the boiled salt is finer and salt by heating the sun will be more coarse (Salt crystal)


       However, basically salt-making technique is based on the evaporation of seawater either by means of boiling or by the evaporation of sunlight.
