Disposal of Excess Salt from Large-Scale Desalination

The production of fresh water through desalination using solar energy generates a significant amount of solid salt as a byproduct. At scale, this could lead to a substantial disposal challenge, as the amount of salt produced far exceeds current global consumption. Finding a solution for the disposal of excess salt is crucial to making this method viable.
