Food & Drink / sea salt production
French term or phrase: table salante
This is the first of a few questions regarding the process of manufacturing sea salt. Although I understand the process, I haven't a clue about the correct terminology in this field.

Unfortunately all the terms are part of a flow chart diagram, so I cannot give any more context or examples than to say it's the salt making process.

Explanation:
If you look on the sites of sea salt producers they use crystallisation pans.

This is confirmed by the site, albeit a translation, about the Berre salt works. An academic article:
