this is far off mr Musk.

 

but distillation by thin steel tray.

 

limited volume of water, so it vaporizes fast.

 

if to use many layers, in height,

 

the vaopor collecting mechanism will need to

be above each tray,

 

while the tray has electrodes/wires heating it up...

 

and the brine/debris/salt is to be hardened on the surface of the tray,

 

tray can be shook/hit/bent, and because it is thin enough,

 

the stuff will break off, separated from the tray,

 

tray shakes it off turned into slope,

 

salt goes to the very bottom,

 

reprocessed again for other minerals,

 

water vapor collected, and re-filtered for consumption......

 

 

possibly fairly cheap way..... kind of a like a toaster.....
