The global market for salt was worth over an estimated $13 billion in 2021, according to Research Insights.
This valuation comes after a rich global history showcasing wars fought over salt, trade routes built for commodities, taxes levied against the mineral and even cities named in sodium's legacy.
But now, since the rise of refrigeration and frozen food, salt is primarily used on snowy and icy roads and highways to make them drivable. However, if too much salt permeates our environment, the effects can be dangerous, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. "We found that some of the major rivers and streams in the world have been showing these increasing trends," Kaushal said.Salt is corrosive because chlorides corrode metal. But sodium chloride isn't the only form of salt. Mineral salts are abundant.
