    lol and what else

    this process is already in use in dead sea chemical works and it’s about separating magnesium, just this time it uses desalination brine as an input

    so it gives some table salt, and depending on what you want it to output, potassium chloride, magnesium salts or metal, gypsum, lithium

    Returned brine is damaging to seafloor so returning less salt is a net improvement
