MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511005294 A) filed by Birla Institute Of Technology & Science Bits, Pilani on January 22, 2025, for Enhanced Biomethanation Of Organic Waste Using Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion Of Organics (tandoor) Method.
Inventors include Palani, Sankar Ganesh; Vadla, Pallavi; and S, Hemapriya.
The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating biodegradable waste. Specifically, the present invention relates to enhanced biomethanation of organic waste using Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion of Organics (TAnDoOr) method. This method maintains pH stability due to the combined substrates providing balanced nutrients. The optimized substrate ratio, coupled with thermophilic conditions, facilitates a significantly enhanced biogas yield compared to mesophilic processes while achieving this at a notably reduced hydraulic retention time (HRT).
