MUMBAI, India, July 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611041066 A) filed by Galgotias University on March 31, 2026, for Brick-O-Brick: Nano-Reinforced Eco-Bricks For Sustainable Plastic Waste Management In Construction.
Inventor includes Shikher Singh.
The application for the patent was published on July 10, 2026, under issue no. 28/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a nano-reinforced eco-brick manufacturing system that converts recycled plastic waste into durable construction bricks. The system comprises stages of waste collection, segregation, chemical sanitization, mechanical shredding, nano- composite mixing with mineral fillers and nanoscale reinforcement materials, compression molding, epoxy coating, and curing. The incorporation of nano-reinforcement enhances compressive strength and structural integrity, while the epoxy coating improves water resistance and durability. The invention provides an environmentally sustainable alternative to conventional clay bricks, reduces plastic waste accumulation, and supports circular economy practices in the construction industry.
