About Salt
Salt, one of the most important minerals in the world and an integral part of food, also finds significant applications in the Chemical and Food-processing industries. It is a compound of sodium and chlorine, and is produced globally through various production processes including seawater evaporation, brine extraction mining, and rock salt mining. Apart from its various industrial and household uses, salt is also used as a major de-icing agent for the maintenance of roads in the Western hemisphere, especially in the North American and European countries, during winters. Its physical properties include solubility in water, being colorless, being odorless, and having a unique characteristic taste.
