MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611049192 A) filed by Nims University, Jaipur, Rajasthan, on April 17, for 'system for infection control.'
Inventor(s) include Ankit Kumar.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A hospital-grade adaptive biological control (ABC) air purification system (100) for dynamically reducing airborne microbial load in healthcare environments. The system (100) comprises a casing (101) having an air intake and exhaust, a HEPA filter module (102) with a differential pressure sensor for particulate removal and filter replacement alerts, a microbial sensing module (103) configured to generate real-time viable particle count (VPC) signals, a variable-intensity UV-C sterilization module (104), and an airflow control module (105) comprising a variable-speed fan. A microprocessor control unit (106) executes an adaptive biological control algorithm to compare the VPC with predefined baseline and critical thresholds and dynamically adjust UV-C fluence and airflow rate. Upon elevated microbial load, sterilization intensity is proportionally increased, while a maximum purge mode is activated under critical conditions. Integrated communication, safety interlocks, and automated recovery to baseline operation enhance safety and infection control efficiency."
