Abstract: Fertiliser salts are considered in the place of sodium chloride for operating solar ponds. A study was conducted to identify the potentially viable candidate fertiliser salts for Indian conditions. Muriate of potash, a potassic fertiliser, is found to have properties comparable to that of sodium chloride, and can generate energy at cheaper cost than urea.
