MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202531128956 A) filed by Kalinga Institute Of Industrial Technology, Bhubaneswar, Orissa, on Dec. 19, 2025, for 'waste heat recovery and electricity generation system for domestic gas stoves.'
Inventor(s) include Bariar, Shikhar Anant; and Mishra, Purna Chandra.
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: "A waste heat recovery and electricity generation system (100) integrated with a domestic gas stove (102) comprises a water tank (104) configured to supply water, a copper pipe network (106) fluidly connected to the water tank (104) and arranged in thermal communication with the gas stove (102) to capture waste heat, a turbine mechanism (108) operatively connected to receive steam from the copper pipe network (106) and convert thermal energy into mechanical rotational energy, an electricity generation mechanism (110) coupled to the turbine mechanism (108) to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, and a condensed water collection unit (112) to capture condensed water. The system (100) further comprises pressure release holes (114) for controlled pressure release. The condensed water is returned to the water tank (104) creating a closed-loop circulation system. The system (100) achieves thirty to forty percent heat-to-electricity conversion efficiency, providing a cost-effective alternative to thermoelectric systems for powering electrical features of the gas stove (102)."
