An industrial visit was organized by the Department of Chemistry on 21.10.2022 and 22.10.2022 at the Chandrapura Thermal Power Station (presently it has two units with a total installed capacity of 500 MW (2×250 MW) located at Chandrapura, Bokaro.
Twenty-Three (23) students of semester III and V of the Department of Chemistry of The Bhawanipur Education Society College, Kolkata accompanying with Dr. Pinki Saha Sardar, Dr. Saugata Konar, Dr. Yeasin Sikder, Mr. Sourav Das and Mr. Atanu Maity (Laboratory assistant) went to this Industrial Visit.
This visit started with students congregating in the Howrah Station at around 11 pm on 20th of October, 2022. The train departed at around 12:05 am from Howrah Station and reached Chandrapura at around 8 am in the next morning. The students along with the teachers had a tiring but a memorable train journey. Hotel check-ins at Hotel Reliance, Bokaro were done smoothly.
On that day (21.10.2022), after reaching the hotel students and teachers went to the Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) by road at around 12:30 pm after having delicious food. 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.
Everyone departed from there in the evening and returned back to the hotel by bus. This was followed by a lot of fun and multiple jamming session amongst the students till dinner. The next day (22.10.2022) was reserved for sight-seeing in and near Bokaro. At 8 pm in the evening, the train left from Chandrapura and reached at Howrah at around 4 am in the next morning.
