PREFACE

The project offered to us is Electrocoagulation as a part of our academic career. The main
purpose of project report is to provide exposure to thorough knowledge.

We all think that while; preparation of this project report on Electrocoagulation is the golden
time for us in our academic career as a student because we have already steeped into this
practical & professional career. We have learnt lots of information regarding electrocoagulation
such as process, Market status, etc.

Moreover in addition to technical knowledge other life skills like disciplined work,
communication skills, creative thinking are also developed.

These were one of the golden experiences in a student‟s life, which helps a student to build a
disciplined and formatted professional career.

We all would like to thank Professor B. H Shah for their kind support towards us.
