MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611115631 A) filed by Gla University, Mathura on September 26, 2026, for Solar-Powered Acoustic Headspace Dust Agglomerator For Water Storage Tanks.
Inventors include Sahil; Harsh Chaudhary; Nitin Kumar; and Sanjeev Kumar Gupta.
The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.
Abstract: A solar-powered acoustic headspace dust agglomeration system for a water storage tank is disclosed. The system comprises a photovoltaic solar panel (101), protective cover (102), waterproof electronics housing (103), sealing gasket (104), controller PCB (105), ultrasonic piezoelectric transducer (106), rechargeable battery, and removable stainless-steel dust collection mesh (107). The photovoltaic solar panel (101) generates electrical energy for charging the rechargeable battery, while the controller PCB (105) controls operation of the ultrasonic piezoelectric transducer (106). The transducer (106) generates ultrasonic acoustic waves within the tank headspace to promote collision and agglomeration of airborne dust particles. The resulting agglomerated particles settle toward the dust collection mesh (107), positioned above the stored water, where at least a portion thereof is retained. The removable mesh (107) permits periodic cleaning, thereby reducing particulate deposition into the stored water.
