MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641042164 A) filed by Malla Reddy; Malla Reddy University; Malla Reddy Vishwavidyapeethy; Malla Reddy College Of Engineering For Women; and Dr. M. Durga, Malkajgiri, Telangana, on April 2, for 'assessing the failures of bio degradable material paver blocks by using machine algorithm.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. M. Durga; Dr. C. Venkata Siva Rama Prasad; Dr. B. Sudharshan Reddy; Dr. J. Selwyn Babu; and Dr. Kiran.

The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Plastic wastes not only endanger marine life but also intoxicate human beings. The proper disposal of plastic waste is a major concern due to its slow decomposition and widespread presence in the environment. The utilization of recycled plastic in the production of paver blocks presents a cost-effective solution for plastic waste disposal. Paver block pavements offer versatility, aesthetic appeal, functionality, and affordability. The driving force behind this project is the innovative approach of using LDPE plastic waste to combat pollution and promote environmental conservation. They can be easily manufactured, transported, installed, and maintained, and can be quickly replaced if necessary. The samples with varying kaolin content and the others with varying sand content respectively. The kaolin percentage from 0 -10 gms and sample of plastic adding should be taken 5-15%. The research aimed at determining the melting point and subsequent effects of temperature on polyethylene as well as determining the mix ratio of the material components that gives the highest compressive strength."
