Step 1
A semi-porous soil pad is prepared as a salt pan and worked upon to make it stable and attain high pH level.
Step 2
Salt water (brine) from the Sambhar lake is collected in the pans and then followed up with sub-soil brine. This process of feeding is repeated thrice.
Step 3
The unique algae present in the water starts giving the salt collected in the pans its pink colour, naturally enriches it with iodine and adds to its pH level.
Step 4
The salt crystals are harvested from the pans and sundried for 9-12 months, to remove the excess moisture content from the salt.
Step 5
Finally, we get the Kshaar Lake salt in crystalline form and is sent to the plant to be packed in bags.
