Traditional nebulizers are limited by static pore sizes, producing mist unsuitable for different plant needs. They also lack the ability to mix liquids or customize droplet sizes for diverse applications. This restricts efficient water and nutrient absorption for various plant types.
Core Features
This innovative nebulizer adjusts droplet sizes dynamically via a piezoelectric mechanism and variable pore membranes. It includes an automated pump and control unit, enabling precise mist delivery tailored to specific plant types. It can also nebulize multiple liquids—either individually or as a mixture—while maintaining customizable droplet sizes.
Inventive Step
Unlike existing nebulizers, this device incorporates variable pore sizes and adjustable vibration frequencies. This allows fine-tuning of droplet sizes to match optimal absorption conditions for different plants. Its automated, sensor-driven control system ensures consistent performance, even in hermetically sealed environments.
Benefits
- Improved water and nutrient absorption efficiency for plants.
- Reduced water wastage and optimized resource use.
- Flexibility to adapt to various plant species and cultivation methods, including aeroponics.
- Compatibility with additional applications, such as disinfection or medical nebulization, due to its versatile design.
Broader Impact
This nebulizer enhances sustainable agriculture by improving indoor farming efficiency and reducing resource consumption. Its adaptability to various liquids and misting needs makes it valuable in healthcare, sterilization, and other industries, supporting broader societal and environmental goals.
