Hi All,

I am a Civil Engineer by profession with 10 years of working experience in Water and Wastewater related field in various countries, such as India, Mongolia and UK. I have a Bachelor Degree in Civil Engineering and further gained Master of Civil Engineering with a specialisation in Environment Engineering. At present, I am preparing for my professional review to gain Chartered Engineer status and this post is related to the above.

During my post graduate study in the University I conducted literature review and authored a report on the effect of excessive fluoride intake in human body and situation of fluoride endemic in India. I further completed a dissertation project on fluoride removal from ground water using low cost Boiler Bottom Ash as an adsorbent compared to chemical agents which generates high quantity of sludge. It's been a while since I left my university as a result I have forgotten almost everything about my dissertation project. Since I left my university in 2002, I never practised water chemistry in my professional field and hence things are out of my memory.

I would expect questions on the use of Boiler Bottom Ash for fluoride removal. Now, I would request all the members to ask me questions after reading the above paragraph about boiler bottom ash and defluoridation techniques(as if you are the reviewer in the interview). I want to be prepared for any question that may arise during the interview.

Thanks in advance for your co-operation.

Regards

Samrat
