You have to put it somewhere. And salt tends to be bad for its surroundings. Even if you put it back into the water, You'd have to spread it very far for it to get diluted enough to not be a problem
And I would have to guess that the resulting salt is not remotely clean enough for human consumption. So you'd have to process it before you could sell it (if there would even be a big enough market)
Urgh. So that means its just not economically viable, even if it is possible huh. (And not to mention not so environmentally friendly)
well, it just needs to compete with other methods in the area. which are all expensive and energy intensive.
Every little improvement helps, tbh
