Inventors include Ms. M. Rekha; Veluthai V; Rajeshwari G B; Thrisha V; and Laksita M.
The application for the patent was published on June 19, 2026, under issue no. 25/2026.
Abstract: The present invention discloses an integrated IoT-enabled intelligent drainage monitoring and automated maintenance system for efficient drainage management. The system comprises ultrasonic sensors, flow sensors, gas sensors, environmental sensors, a microcontroller-based processing unit, wireless communication modules, cloud analytics infrastructure, predictive warning mechanisms, and automated cleaning devices. Real-time drainage parameters including water level, flow rate, gas concentration, and environmental conditions are continuously monitored and transmitted to a cloud platform for storage, visualization, and analysis. Weather forecasting information is integrated to provide predictive flood warnings. Upon detection of abnormal conditions such as overflow, blockage, stagnation, or hazardous gas accumulation, alerts are generated through mobile applications, SMS, email, and alarm systems. An automated servo motor-driven cleaning mechanism removes minor obstructions without human intervention. The invention enhances drainage management efficiency, reduces maintenance costs, improves environmental protection, supports smart city infrastructure, and provides scalable solutions for municipal, industrial, and wastewater drainage systems.
