Grainer evaporation process

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Grainer evaporation process is a method of producing salt.[1]

This method uses shallow open pans with steam-heated immersion coils to evaporate the brine into salt.

Sometimes it is paired with a partial-vacuum, to speed evaporation.
