Should I be concerned about the potential harmful effects this
effluent might have on grass in the area?


Yes, it will kill the grass


Would a switch to potassium chloride "salt" remove the portion of
the effluent that doesn't relate well to the grass?

No. The first element (sodium/potassium) winds up in what you drink.
The second element (chloride) winds up in the discharge as calcium
chloride.
