MUMBAI, India, July 31 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411096007 A) filed by Lovely Professional University on December 05, 2024, for Ai-Driven Distillation Column For Dynamic Process Optimization And Energy Efficiency.
Inventor includes Dharmendra Sinngh Tomar.
The application for the patent was published on July 24, 2026, under issue no. 30/2026.
Abstract: The invention pertains to the technical field of chemical process engineering, specifically focusing on distillation technology enhanced by artificial intelligence for optimizing process efficiency and energy consumption. The AI-driven distillation column comprises a distillation column equipped with trays or packing material for chemical separation, a plurality of sensors and IoT devices for monitoring key operational parameters such as temperature, pressure, liquid levels, flow rates, and product composition. Central to the invention is an AI-based control system that utilizes machine learning algorithms to dynamically adjust operational parameters, including reflux ratio, feed rate, temperature, and pressure, based on data received from the sensors. Machine learning models, trained on both historical and real-time data, predict efficient set points for these variables, enabling dynamic optimization. Digital twin technology creates a virtual distillation column for real-time simulation and optimization.
