You boil the salt water because salt has a higher boiling point than water and therefore the water will evaporate, not the salt
For example, water can be separated from salt solution by simple distillation. This method works because water has a much lower boiling point than salt. When the solution is heated, the water evaporates. It is then cooled and condensed into a separate container.
