MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511112962 A) filed by Madan Mohan Malaviya University Of Technology, Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, on Nov. 17, 2025, for 'decentralized system for aerobic composting of household waste and cultivation of indigenous plants in local conditions.'
Inventor(s) include Ashish Kumar Singh; Prof. Govind Pandey; and Prof. Chandra Shekhar Prasad Ojha.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention discloses a decentralized system and method for converting household organic waste into stabilized compost and utilizing the compost for cultivating indigenous Indian plant species under localized soil and climatic conditions. The process involves controlled aerobic decomposition of segregated biodegradable waste within insulated chambers that regulate temperature, aeration, and moisture to achieve thermophilic sanitization and efficient biological stabilization. Optional vermicomposting further enhances nutrient density and structure. The matured compost is evaluated using defined physicochemical and biological parameters before agricultural application. The invention further provides species-specific guidelines for mixing the compost with local soils to cultivate native plants such as Moringa oleifera, Vigna aconitifolia, and Carissa carandas, selected for their ecological suitability and drought tolerance. The integrated system reduces landfill loads, improves soil fertility, restores biodiversity, and promotes circular-economy practices by converting domestic waste into a renewable agricultural resource."
