To salvage something means to save it, or save what's still usable from it, after damage, an accident, or a failure — you might salvage furniture from a flooded house, or salvage a sinking ship's cargo. Beyond physical things, you can also salvage a situation, a plan, or a relationship, meaning you manage to save some good result from something that was going badly. As a noun, "salvage" is the act of saving something this way, or the things saved.
