Summary:
This experiment involves burning of tyres, wood and sodium chloride, where sodium is made to melt and evaporate. He got in touch with Marathe after hearing about him.“I was told burning twigs , rubber and salt together can also help in the artificial rain process. The burning of tyres generates cyanide, carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide and many other harmful gases. “Hundreds of experiments, each requiring just two large tyres and 50kg of salt yielded 3-5 mm of rain in 4-5 sqkm area. The experiment vapourises salt into the atmosphere at high temperatures to get rain..
