Planning and Implementing Salt Iodization at the Operational level

Equipment Procurement, Installation and Use

Iodization equipment must be designed to fit the capacity of the salt works and must take into account the movement and handling of salt within the salt facility. "One size fits all" units do not work.

Equipment, whether donated or purchased, must be integrated with existing operations and should not result in excessive additional costs and extra handling and movement of the salt.

On site training in the use and management of equipment is required.

Regular service and follow-up support as well as access to spare parts are essential to ensure ongoing trouble-free iodisation.
