Evaporate to dryness and sprinkle on roads and/or fried potatoes?

I’m afraid that’s not how it works. You’ll have enormous amounts of really salty water that you need to get rid of. Usually you’ll just put back from where you took it thereby increasing salinity which is not good™ for ecosystems.https://wired.com/…/desalination-is-bo…

The article you mentioned specifically mentions inland evaporative pool to turn those brine for road salts or other uses. But the problem is just that no one is doing it.
