The students were enlightened on various topics in the DVC. They had acquired practical knowledge about the removing of undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids, and gases from water for water management (one of the bifurcating parts of DVC along with thermal power) both for the purpose of boiler and supply of drinking water to nearby villages using various techniques. They also learnt about the controlling of water hardness and pH using ion exchange resin and different chemicals. After that we visited the coal examination room with proper safety where they experienced the use of different sophisticated instruments including the Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS), coal grinder, hot air oven with higher temperature variant, bomb calorimeter etc. They have learnt how to determine the calorific value of coal sample before taken it to the furnace for thermal power generation. The students also experienced the transportation process of coal from train to the boiler with proper safety. Both the students and teachers were very much exited after seeing all the projects.
