MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511010233 A) filed by Lovely Professional University on February 07, 2025, for A Novel Ph-Responsive Formulation For Enhanced Heavy Metal Removal In Aquatic Systems.
Inventors include Prasann Kumar; and Polu Picheswara Rao.
The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: This invention introduces a pH-responsive formulation for the efficient removal of heavy metals from aquatic systems, addressing the need for sustainable and cost- effective water treatment. The formulation features pH-sensitive polymers that adapt their structure and charge to optimize heavy metal capture, combined with chelating agents to form stable metal complexes and engineered nanoparticles for enhanced adsorption. Buffering agents ensure pH stability for effective operation, while biodegradable binding agents facilitate eco-friendly disposal. This adaptive approach maximizes adsorption and precipitation across various pH levels, reducing chemical use and operational costs. Suitable for diverse applications, including industrial wastewater treatment and natural water body remediation, this formulation provides a scalable, efficient, and environmentally conscious solution for heavy metal contamination in water systems.
