In ancient times, the chemical operations of reducing metals ores, making soap, dying fabric, and other activities were carried out in close proximity to where people lived. These processes were familiar to most people of that day. Today, mines and factories may be located in remote areas or they may be separated from residential areas so that people have no knowledge of where the items come from or how they are produced. As chemical technology has become more sophisticated, a smaller percentage of people understand its operation and scope. 

Technology has defined societies and civilizations since the beginning of time. We use technology to describe different periods of time. When we refer to the Stone Age, for example, it is because early humans had only stones, bones, and sticks to make tools and weapons. In the Bronze Age, people had learned how to melt copper and pour it into molds, as well as to shape it in other ways. During the period described as the Iron Age, humans had discovered how to fashion iron ore into tools, weapons, and other products. As the name implies, the Industrial Age was the period of time when factories and manufacturing were growing rapidly. The Information Age is the age that we live in today. It is called the information age because information has become more valuable than manufactured products. 

Several plants in India and abroad have been successfully installed with this technology and got excellent results. The manufacturer is located at Coimbatore and Chennai (TN). They have a pilot plant and can arrange a live demonstration at any factory site.
