Distillation.
Explanation: distillation boils off and condenses the water, leaving dissolved salts behind. Filtration won't remove dissolved ions, gas chromatography is for volatile organics, and freezing is less effective/practical because salt remains in the liquid brine and can be trapped in ice.
