The sodium chloride injection is a traditional medicine generally adopted clinically in the medical field in all countries in the world at present, when a patient uses the sodium chloride injection, the sodium chloride injection directly enters a blood circulation system through intramuscular injection, and because natural salt sodium chloride contains a plurality of harmful impurities, if the harmful impurities are not removed, the natural salt sodium chloride enters blood, a plurality of complications can be caused, and the body of the patient is damaged. The traditional natural salt purification process comprises the steps of firstly dissolving natural salt, then adding barium chloride for sedimentation to remove sulfate ions, then adding sodium carbonate for sedimentation to remove introduced barium ions, then filtering supernate through an ultrafiltration or microfiltration membrane system, and finally dissolving, filtering, drying and packaging salt obtained by twice recrystallization. The disadvantages of this process are: 1. the barium chloride and the sodium carbonate are added, a feeding tank is needed, the occupied area is large, and the operation is complex; 2. the reagents barium chloride and sodium carbonate are required to be added twice, and the barium chloride has toxicity and can increase the cost of the reagents; 3. the sulfate radical is removed by a precipitation method, so that the removal rate of the sulfate radical is not high, and the sulfate radical cannot be completely removed; 4. the distillation is carried out twice, the distillation temperature needs 130 ℃, and high energy consumption is needed, so that the cost is increased; 5. during the crystallization process, sodium sulfate and some substances with similar solubility, such as metal cations, exist in crystals and cannot be removed.
