Talk:Brine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The article says:
- Sea water, particularly that of the Dead Sea, is often regarded as brine.
Why is sea water only "often" and not always "regarded as brine"? Is typical sea water not salty enough to be considered brine?
- The Salinity article indicates brine is a saturated salt solution where salt will preciptitate back out of solution. Water with less than saturated salt concentrations might not be considered brine. Typical salt water is only about 3.5% salt, where this article is talking of 20+% salt solutions. 139.70.10.66 16:48, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bromine
The bromine association seems a bit tenuous to me CustardJack 07:14, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

I would like to see some discussion where 'brine' is associated with meats, i.e., like to brine chicken. What is the benefit of this type of processing and are we taking away the health benefit by doing so.
[edit] Other term "Brine Lakes" or "Brine Pools"
Remove extraneous references to brackish water and brine lakes. Added Also See links to replace the information.
