MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641021791 A) filed by Psna College Of Engineering And Technology, Dindigul, Tamil Nadu, on Feb. 24, for 'iot & ml-powered smart cooking oil monitoring & waste-to-wealth system.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. T. Hemalatha; Rogith P; Ramya R; Karthikeyan S; Karishma J; and Sanjay Kamu S.
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: "The OILSENSE system introduces an integrated smart cooking oil quality monitoring and waste logistics solution leveraging Internet of Things (loT) architecture, dielectric capacitance-based sensing and real-time data analytics. The hardware probe subsystem plays a crucial role in rapid oil degradation analysis by utilizing two parallel conductive plates that act as a capacitor with the cooking oil serving as the dielectric medium. By applying an alternating current (AC) signal through the oil, the system detects variations in the dielectric constant and loss factor caused by the accumulation of Total Polar Materials (TPM). The resulting capacitance changes are converted into analog voltage via an RC circuit, digitized using an ADS 1115 analog to-digital converter, and processed by an embedded microcontroller to accurately calculate the TPM percentage. The loT module facilitates the continuous, real-time transmission of this diagnostic data to a crossplatform ecosystem, providing regulatory authorities with interactive geographical dashboards for compliance tracking. This comprehensive, data-driven system empowers administrators with precision enforcement capabilities while promoting sustainable waste-to-wealth management and public health."
