Project Overview
The Salt Washing & Upgrading Plant in Konya, Türkiye, is a high-capacity facility processing solar (lake) salt into refined, high-purity salt for food, chemical, water treatment, and industrial applications using advanced washing and upgrading technologies. With a capacity of 150 tons per hour, the plant upgrades salt from 96–97% to 99.5% purity and was successfully completed in 2016.
Process Overview
The plant utilizes a series of integrated washing, grading, and upgrading processes to remove impurities from solar salt and produce refined, high-purity salt with consistent quality, reliable performance, and controlled physical properties, ensuring compliance with industry standards and suitability for food, industrial, and water treatment applications.
Project Status
The Salt Washing & Upgrading Plant in Konya, Türkiye, was successfully completed in 2016 and is fully operational. The facility effectively processes solar salt sourced from Lake Tuz, upgrading it from 96–97% raw purity to 99.5% high-purity salt. The plant operates at a high capacity of 150 tons per hour, delivering consistent product quality to meet the demands of food, chemical, water treatment, and industrial applications.
Salt Source: Lake Tuz
Lake Tuz, located in central Türkiye, is one of the world’s largest salt lakes and a major source of high-quality solar salt. Its natural evaporation process produces raw salt with purities of 96–97%, which can be further refined for food, chemical, water treatment, and industrial applications. The lake’s abundant and naturally pure salt makes it a cornerstone of Türkiye’s salt industry, supporting modern processing plants that upgrade the product to meet international quality standards.
