Answer:
By evaporation
Explanation:
Salt accounts for about 3.5 percent of the world's oceans. Common salt is obtained from sea-water by the process of evaporation. When producing sea salt on an industrial scale, seawater is placed in large "concentrating ponds" to allow efficient evaporation from the sun and the wind. The manufacturing of sea salt can only be performed in areas with low rainfall in order for enough time to pass for evaporation. The sea water is first collected and it is kept for evaporation. When the water is fully evaporated the salt remains. By this way salt is obtained from sea water.
