Traditionally salt is made from shallow ponds where seawater is evaporating. The salt is daily scraped up and dried on tables. This picture is from Portugal.

 

Mushroom shaped salt diapir. Over millions of years, soil and sand have covered the salt flats. However, the density of salt is much less than soil and sand and the salt is therefore rising to the surface just like a cork stopper, which means that in some locations, the salt is only a few hundred meters beneath the surface.

 

This map of salt deposits in the Danish subsurface shows where salt diapirs can be found (dark black spots)

 

Known salt deposits,  there may be many more.

My third generation of a SaltPower system developing 10 kW of electric power.

 

The system was located in a container at Nobian/Dansk Salt, a salt producing factory.

Salt is the second most mined substance in the world after iron. It is used for a large variety of daily products and is indispensable for a modern society.

 

SaltPower has the only test facility to date for PRO membranes worldwide, partly financed by the Danish government.
