The invention claimed is: 1. A method for at least partially removing a soluble alkali metal or ammonium salt of a divalent anion from an aqueous, alkali metal or ammonium ion and divalent anion-containing brine solution comprising the following steps: a) obtaining an alkali metal or ammonium ion and divalent anion-containing brine solution having a sodium chloride concentration between 150 g/L and saturation, or having a sodium chloride concentration above saturation in the presence of a crystal growth inhibitor for sodium chloride, said brine solution optionally comprising a crystal growth inhibitor for the alkali metal or ammonium salt of said divalent anion; b) adding, if the concentration of the crystal growth inhibitor for the alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion (the divalent anion comprising salt) in the brine solution is less than 20 mg/L, an amount of said crystal growth inhibitor for the alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion such that said brine solution comprises at least 20 mg/L of said crystal growth inhibitor; c) subjecting said solution to a membrane filtration step, thereby separating the brine solution into a brine stream being supersaturated for said divalent anion-comprising salt, and a brine stream being undersaturated for said divalent anion-comprising salt; d) adding, if the concentration of the crystal growth inhibitor for the alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion in the brine stream being supersaturated for said divalent-anion comprising salt is less than 20 mg/L, an amount of said crystal growth inhibitor such that said brine stream comprises at least 20 mg/L of said crystal growth inhibitor; e) subjecting the brine stream being supersaturated for the divalent anion-comprising salt to a crystallization process; and f) removing crystallized alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the divalent anion is sulfate or carbonate. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the alkali metal is sodium. 4. The method according to claim 1 wherein the brine solution is saturated for sodium chloride or has a sodium chloride concentration between 275 g/L and saturation. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the brine solution has a sodium chloride concentration between 150 g/L and saturation in the presence of a crystal growth inhibitor for sodium chloride. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the crystal growth inhibitor for the alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion is present in the brine stream being supersaturated for said divalent-anion comprising salt in an amount of at least 25 mg/L. 7. The method according to claim 6, wherein the crystal growth inhibitor for the alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion is present in the brine stream being supersaturated for said divalent-anion comprising salt in an amount between 75-150 mg/L. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein the crystal growth inhibitor for the alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion is selected from the group consisting of humic acids, polymaleic acid, polyacrylic acid, sugars, oligopeptides, polypeptides, and polymers bearing two or more carboxylic acid or carboxyalkyl groups. 9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the polymers bearing two or more carboxylic acid or carboxyalkyl groups are further bearing phosphate, phosphonate, phosphino, sulfate, and/or sulfonate groups. 10. The method according to claim 1, further comprising acidifying the brine solution to a pH below 11.5, while maintaining a sodium chloride concentration of at least 150 g/L. 11. The method according to claim 10, wherein the acidification is performed in a scrubber. 12. The method according to claim 10, wherein the brine solution is acidified with CO2. 13. The method according to claim 1, wherein the pH of the brine solution being subjected to the membrane filtration step is between 2 and 11.5. 14. The method according to claim 1, wherein the membrane filtration step is performed by nanofiltration. 15. The method according to claim 1, wherein step (e) is performed by the addition of seeds of the alkali metal or ammonium salt of the divalent anion to be crystallized. 16. The method according to claim 1, further comprising recycling at least part of the mother liquor of the crystallization process to the brine solution in order to subject said solution to the membrane filtration step. 17. The method according to claim 1, further comprising preparing sodium chloride from the brine stream being undersaturated for said divalent anion-comprising salt of step c) as raw material.
