MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511010282 A) filed by Lovely Professional University on February 07, 2025, for Enhanced Rhizosphere Phytoremediation System With Specialized Microbial Consortia For.
Inventors include Prasann Kumar; and Mastu Patel.
The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: The invention provides an innovative rhizosphere phytoremediation system designed for the effective removal of heavy metal contaminants from soil. This system utilizes specialized microbial consortia comprising metal-solubilizing bacteria, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, and mycorrhizal fungi to enhance plant uptake and resilience. Organic soil amendments, such as biochar and compost, support microbial growth and soil stability. A real-time monitoring system equipped with sensors tracks key parameters like pH, moisture, and metal concentrations, while an adaptive control mechanism adjusts soil conditions for optimal remediation. Automated dosing systems deliver nutrients, pH modifiers, or chelating agents based on sensor data to create an ideal environment for the plants and microbes, maximizing the efficiency of heavy metal stabilization and removal from contaminated soils.
