Application No: 202041032020 This patent describes a method for producing eco-friendly tiles using sisal fiber and epoxy resin. Unlike conventional tiles made from cement or ceramics, this invention reduces environmental impact by utilizing renewable fibers. The process involves treating sisal fibers for enhanced bonding, mixing them with epoxy resin, and curing them under controlled conditions. The resulting tiles offer high strength, water resistance, durability and thermal insulation, making them a sustainable alternativ
Application No: 202041032022 This patent introduces a permeable paver block using PPE granules instead of traditional aggregates to enhance groundwater recharge. Conventional pavers cause runoff, leading to urban flooding and water loss. This innovation features strategically designed pores that allow rainwater to percolate efficiently. The use of PPE granules improves strength, durability, and sustainability, making it ideal for urban landscapes while addressing water conservation challenges.
Application No: 202341028278 This patent introduces carbon sequestration paver blocks using adsorbent-treated construction demolition waste (CDW) to enhance mechanical and environmental performance. The process blends cementitious materials with treated CDW, optimizing the mix for high strength, durability, and reduced permeability. These pavers effectively capture and store CO? making them ideal for roads, walkways, and heavy-load areas. This innovation promotes sustainability by recycling waste and reducing carbon emissio
