MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641009711 A) filed by Ensquare Global, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, on Jan. 30, for 'system and method for enhanced mixing and retention in geopolymer concrete.'

Inventor(s) include B Indira Devi; Kumari Ritika; B Nageswara Rao; and Kumar Navneet.

The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a system (100) and method for enhanced mixing and retention in geopolymer concrete using a controlled two-stage process. The raw material input unit (102) feeds fly ash, GGBS, and other constituents into an upper drum mixer (104) where ash, water, additives, admixture, and chemicals are combined to form an activated slurry. The slurry is transferred to a lower drum secondary mixer (108), which receives aggregates from a bin (106) and produces a uniform, high-quality geopolymer concrete. The mixed concrete is transported through a transit mixer (110) and placed at site using a placing unit (112), followed by ambient curing using an ambient curing. A specially formulated retention-control admixture significantly extends workable time, eliminates surface defects, prevents shrinkage cracks and efflorescence, and enables long-distance transportation. The system provides improved quality, reduced costs, and faster project readiness within three days."
