This is the world's third largest salt lake, the world's largest desert salt lake. It has a lot more salt than sea water, is one of the world's most salty and heaviest water bodies. The salt produced is not edible and is sold as industrial salt to the Nordic region to eliminate snow in winter. In summer, the lake will continue to dry due to the very hot weather, and in winter, a large amount of water will be stored to form this great lake.
