MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541111337 A) filed by Peri Institute Of Technology, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on Nov. 14, 2025, for 'odor-driven predictive waste management system with embedded fill-level monitoring and adaptive control.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Rajagopal M; Sharvin P; Rithish P; Santhakumar G; Yuvakrishna; and Selvakumar S.

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 present invention relates to an intelligent waste management system that combines gas-based odor sensing, fill-level detection, and an embedded machine learning model to proactively manage hygiene risks. The system forecasts odor escalation by analyzing real-time sensor data and triggers adaptive control responses such as automatic bin sealing, deodorization activation, or dynamic override of scheduled waste collection based on predicted odor severity rather than fill level alone. Designed for edge inference, the system operates autonomously without requiring continuous cloud connectivity and transmits actionable data via IoT networks to a centralized dashboard. The invention significantly improves sanitation efficiency, reduces odor- related complaints, and supports predictive waste handling in high-density or hygiene-sensitive environments."
