MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202531087828 A) filed by Narula Institute Of Technology, Kolkata, West Bengal, on Sept. 15, 2025, for 'predictive analytics based smart waste monitoring and collection system powered by iot.'
Inventor(s) include Debrupa Pal.
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: "This invention introduces a smart waste management system designed for urban areas, leveraging IoT technology to optimize waste collection and monitoring. The system consists of multiple smart bins, each equipped with a suite of sensors, including ultrasonic sensors to detect fill levels, gas sensors for identifying hazardous emissions, temperature and humidity sensors for environmental monitoring, and weight sensors to measure accumulated waste. Each bin operates through a microcontroller that gathers and processes sensor data, which is then transmitted via a wireless communication module to a centralized cloud-based platform. This platform incorporates a route optimization engine, a data analytics module, and a user interface for real-time system control and monitoring. The system enables dynamic waste collection planning, generates real-time alerts, and provides predictive analytics to forecast future waste accumulation, contributing to efficient and sustainable urban waste management."
