MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611021014 A) filed by Ajay Kumar Garg Engineering College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on Feb. 23, for 'iot-enabled dual-sensor system for real-time tank liquid and foam level monitoring and working method thereof.'
Inventor(s) include Nitin Shammi; Nikesh Yadav; Ravindra Kumar; and Preeti Singh.
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 present invention discloses an IoT-enabled dual-sensor system and working method for real-time tank liquid and foam level monitoring. The system integrates a non-contact radar level transmitter for accurate liquid level measurement with a non-contact ultrasonic sensor for detecting foam-inclusive total level. An industrial programmable logic controller acquires and processes sensor data using a differential foam profiling algorithm to compute real-time foam thickness by subtracting the liquid level from the total level. The processed data is transmitted via an IoT gateway to a cloud-based dashboard for remote monitoring, analytics, and predictive maintenance. The invention eliminates false level readings caused by foam, enhances process safety, prevents overfilling, and enables intelligent foam-based chemical dosing, achieving significant reduction in chemical consumption. The system is applicable across food, chemical, wastewater, pharmaceutical, and oil and gas industries."
