Chemical process description:

• Load 4000 liter capacity of water tank on tractor trolley.
• Add desired chemicals as per lab instruction in the tank and fill with water up to mark. (4000 liter) under proper supervision.
• Spread chemically processed water on Bentonite.
• Plough the plot and once again sort the impurities.
• Leave it for drying.
• After completion of chemical processes (activation) and drying, take the sample using cone and quarter method.
