Is there a simple formulation to estimate the composition and amount of salt precipitation (in equilibrium) given the ion concentrations in a brine and the temperature conditions?
For example: if we know the concentrations of Cl−, Na+, Mg2+, SO2−, Ca2+, K+ of a sea-water brine at a known temperature T,
what salt(s) and how much of them will precipitate if there is time enough to reach equilibrium?
Can you refer to a concise text-book?
Hola Daniel, prueba Warren (2006). Es uno de los libros más completos de evaporitas. Quizás ya lo conozcas.

I got a good answer to this on stack exchange:
