EDIBLE SALT
Constituent elements of rock salt
Since stone is a completely natural mineral, it is not manufactured, it is extracted from mines, but it can be used and prepared for various processes. That is, other salts do not interfere in the composition of rock salt. Naci NA ions (Cl) form the composition of rock salt. In its purest form, rock salt is approximately NaCl =99.4% min The degree of purity of the rock salt extracted from each mine varies greatly depending on the richness of the underground where the rock salt bed is located. Rock salt in its natural state can contain more than 80 different minerals, including iron, sulfur, magnesium, calcium and potassium. Of course, it should be noted that the percentage of these elements varies from one mineral to another.
All kinds of natural colors in rock salt are obtained from these foreign substances. By examining natural rock salt, clay, fossil waste and other foreign materials can be present along with various minerals in the rock salt formula. This amount depends on the type of mine and the type of rock salt. Edible rock salt with natural purity for food production:
Natural edible rock salt is a very natural and organic product
•It is a flavoring and preservative agent in food processing and production.
•0-2 mm is produced in the mixture granulation.
•It can be provided in iodized and non-iodized forms.
•It is noted that this salt is completely organic. No purification has been done on it. Therefore, it cannot be offered in small packages.
•National and international standards of salt quality.
The national standards of salt quality are determined by the Iranian Institute of Standards and Industrial Research in accordance with the standards stipulated in the law. These standards are defined with the following purpose:
•Consumer protection
•Maintaining personal and public health and safety
•Ensuring the quality of products
•Environmental and economic considerations
Since international standards are studied and used as a source in developing national salt quality standards, usually there is no significant difference between national standards and international salt quality standards.
In the salt laboratory, after analyzing various factors, the obtained results are adapted to national standards so that the final product is of high quality in every respect.
