This Project was started at the beginning of a new, 21st century, after realizing the first scientific visit of the second author to India. By the end of the twentieth century, the 2nd author first visited Bombay, to discover the natural beauty and exotics of this sub-continent. That time, there was a scientist as a Polish Consul in Bombay, Dr. Krzysztof Majka, coming from the Koszalin University of Technology (KUT), and he received a visit there of the 2nd author, Prof. Tadeusz Hryniewicz. Over a decade later, the first author of this book decided to join the Surface Electrochemistry Division at the KUT for his PhD studies. In 2006, the authors started to develop a Project concerned with the use of the natural rubber to the new sources of energy. That year, a scientific expedition to the natural rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) plantation in Ranni, Kerala State on the south-west India, was carried out. The aim of this expedition was to receive a natural rubber and bring it back under natural state to Poland in view of performing an electrochemical modification for further studies in view of application//using the modified layouts//systems of conductive natural rubber. This work is to present also natural, sightseeing, tourist, and environmental elements of the beautiful natural geography of West India.
