MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611113246 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 22, 2026, for Adaptive Sensor-Based Domestic Water Purification System With Selective Filtration And Minimal Wastewater Discharge.
Inventors include Navreet Singh; Geetanjali; Manya Kapoor; and Nivedita Mazumder.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to an adaptive sensor-based domestic water purification system configured to provide safe drinking water while minimizing unnecessary wastewater discharge. The system comprises a raw water inlet, a pre-filtration unit, a water-quality sensing chamber, an embedded control unit, multiple purification paths, flow-control valves, and a post-treatment verification unit. The water-quality sensing chamber detects a condition of incoming water and communicates the detected information to the embedded control unit, which determines an appropriate purification level and automatically directs the water through a selected purification path. Following purification, the treated water is verified before being delivered for consumption or storage. Water failing the verification is redirected for further treatment, while unsuitable water may be recovered for secondary household use or controlled discharge. The adaptive operation avoids unnecessary intensive purification, thereby reducing water wastage and energy consumption while maintaining consistent drinking-water quality
