Production planning estimate
Plan around gallons of seawater
A starting estimate is 0.25 lb of salt per gallon of seawater. Work back from how much you go through in a year to see how much that takes to make.
What you'll need
— gallons of seawater
Planning note: Solar evaporation in a shallow tray concentrates seawater down to salt crystals over several sunny days, and is only practical near a clean coastal source.
