Salinity of Water

Salinity - salt content - of fresh, brackish and sea water.

Saline in Water

fresh water (typical city water in United States) : < 100 ppm
water supply typicaly restricted to : 500 ppm
fresh water - official salt concentration limits in drinking water US: 1000 ppm
typical limit agriculture irrigation : 2000 ppm
brackish water, mildly : 1000 - 5,000 ppm
brackish water, moderately : 5000 - 15000 ppm
brackish water, heavily : 15000 - 35000 ppm
seawater : 30000 - 50000 ppm (approx. 35000)
brine > 50000 ppm
Dead sea : 330000 ppm
