TY - CONF A1 - Maiwald, Michael T1 - Integrated and Networked Systems and Processes - How NMR Spectroscopy Can Transform our Chemical and Pharmaceutical Production N2 - Chemical and pharmaceutical companies need to find new ways to survive successfully in a changing environment, while finding more flexible ways of product and process development to bring their products to market faster - especially high-value, high-end products such as fine chemicals or pharmaceuticals. This is complicated by changes in value chains along a potential circular economy. One current approach is flexible and modular chemical production units that use multi-purpose equipment to produce various high-value products with short downtimes between campaigns and can shorten time-to-market for new products. Online NMR spectroscopy will play an important role for plant automation and quality control, as the method brings very high linearity, matrix independence and thus works almost calibration-free. Moreover, these properties ideally enable automated and machine-aided data analysis for the above-mentioned applications. Using examples, this presentation will outline a possible more holistic approach to digitalization and the use of machine-based processes in the production of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals through the introduction of integrated and networked systems and processes.

The potential of digital technologies belongs to these. Flexible and modular chemical plants can produce various high-quality products using multi-purpose equipment with short down-times between campaigns and reduce time to market for new products. Intensified continuous production plants allow for difficult to produce compounds. Therefore, fully automated “chemical” process control along with real-time quality control are prerequisites to such concepts and thus should be based on “chemical” information. The advances of a fully automated NMR sensor were exploited, using a given pharmaceutical lithiation reaction as an example process within a modular pilot plant. A commercially available benchtop NMR spectrometer was integrated to the full requirements of an automated chemical production environment such as , e.g., explosion safety, field communication, and robust evaluation of sensor data. It was thereof used for direct loop advanced process control and real-time optimization of the process. NMR appeared as preeminent online analytical tool and allowed using a modular data analysis tool, which even served as reliable reference method for further PAT applications. Recently, AI procedures have also been successfully used for NMR data evaluation. In order to overcome the typical limitation of too small data sets from process developments, a new method was tested, which allows a physically motivated multiplication of the available reference data together with context information in order to obtain a sufficiently large data set for the training of machine learning algorithms. In future, such fully integrated and intelligently interconnecting “smart” systems and processes can speed up the high-quality production of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals.

While conventional high-field NMR systems are often associated with high investment and operational costs, the upcoming market of permanent-magnet based benchtop NMR systems show a considerable option for a lot of applications. The mobility of these systems allows to bring them more closely to the real production environment, e.g. for at-line quality control. In this work we present an interlaboratory comparison study investigating the qNMR performance of state-of-the-art benchtop NMR spectrometers. Therefore, BAM prepared two samples of a mixture of NMR reference standards tetramethylbenzene (TMB) and tetrachloronitrobenzene (TCNB) at concentration levels of 200 mM and 10 mM. These “ready-to-use” samples were sent to participant laboratories, which performed analysis on their benchtop NMR equipment of different vendors and fields from 43 to 80 MHz. Raw data was reported back and further investigated by using different data analysis methods at BAM. After this very first qNMR comparison study of benchtop NMR spectrometers show promising results, following studies are planned to cover more parts of the qNMR process, e.g. sample preparation and weighing, but also data analysis, as commonly done in similar studies for high-field NMR spectroscopy in industry and metrology.

N2 - Bei Industry 4.0 dreht sich alles um Interkonnektivität, sensorgestützte Prozesssteuerung und datengesteuerte Systeme. Prozessanalysentechnik (PAT) wie die Online-Kernresonanzspektroskopie (NMR) gewinnt zunehmend an Bedeutung, da sie zur Automatisierung und Digitalisierung in der Produktion beiträgt. Eine klassische Auswertung von Prozessdaten und deren Umsetzung in Wissen ist jedoch bisher in vielen Fällen aufgrund der unzureichend großen verfügbaren Datensätze nicht möglich oder nicht wirtschaftlich. Bei der Entwicklung eines automatisierten Verfahrens für die Prozesskontrolle stehen manchmal nur die Basisdaten einer begrenzten Anzahl von Batch-Versuchen aus typischen Produkt- und Prozessentwicklungskampagnen zur Verfügung. Diese Datensätze sind jedoch nicht groß genug, um maschinengestützte Verfahren zu trainieren. Um diese Einschränkung zu überwinden, wurde ein neues Verfahren entwickelt, das eine physikalisch motivierte Multiplikation der verfügbaren Referenzdaten erlaubt, um einen ausreichend großen Datensatz für das Training von maschinellen Lernalgorithmen zu erhalten. Das zugrundeliegende Beispiel einer chemischen Synthese wurde spektroskopisch verfolgt und mit der neuen Methode sowie mit einem physikalisch basierten Modell analysiert, wobei sowohl eine anwendungsrelevante Niederfeld-NMR als auch eine Hochfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie als Referenzmethode verwendet wurde. Künstliche neuronale Netze (ANNs) haben das Potenzial, bereits aus relativ begrenzten Eingabedaten wertvolle Prozessinformationen abzuleiten. Um jedoch die Konzentration unter komplexen Bedingungen (viele Edukte und weite Konzentrationsbereiche) vorherzusagen, sind größere ANNs und damit ein größerer Trainingsdatensatz erforderlich. Wir zeigen, dass ein mäßig komplexes Problem mit vier Edukten unter Verwendung von ANNs in Kombination mit der vorgestellten PAT-Methode (Niederfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie) und mit dem vorgeschlagenen Ansatz zur Erzeugung aussagekräftiger Trainingsdaten bewältigt werden kann.

It is the basis for accreditation by an accreditation body. The current version was published in 2018. Implementing ISO/IEC 17025 as part of laboratory quality initiatives offers both laboratory and business benefits, such as expanding the potential customer base for testing and/or calibration, increasing the reputation and image of the laboratory at national and international level, continuous improvement of the data quality and the effectiveness of the laboratory or creation of a good basis for most other quality systems in the laboratory sector, such as GxP. The main difference between a proper approach to analysis and a formal accreditation is shown in a targeted documentation, especially on the qualification of the personnel, the test equipment and the validation of the analytical methods. Using quantitative NMR spectroscopy as an example, it is shown how accreditation can be carried out and what documentation is required. In our case, we have described the procedure in an SOP ("Determination of the quantitative composition of simple mixtures of structurally known compounds with 1H-NMR spectroscopy") and supported it with a modular system of organizational and equipment SOPs. The special feature is that the accredited method is independent for the choice of the analyte and the matrix and therefore it is possible to operate with a single validated method. In our case, we have proposed three quality levels ("leagues") with different levels of analytical effort, which differ in their measurement uncertainty, in order to simplify the workflow and analysis design.

Sie bieten Selbstdiagnose, Selbstkalibrierung und erleichterte Parametrierung. Über die Konnektivität ermöglichen die Prozess-Sensoren den Austausch ihrer Informationen als Cyber-physische Systeme mit anderen Prozess-Sensoren und im Netzwerk. Der Aufbruch von der aktuellen Automation zum smarten Sensor hat bereits begonnen. Automatisierungstechnik und Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik (IKT) verschmelzen zunehmend. Wenn die Prozessindustrie dieses nicht definiert, tun es andere. Für die weitere Entwicklung von der Ist‐Situation zu einer Industrie-4.0-Welt in der Prozessindustrie werden mehrere Szenarien diskutiert. Diese reichen vom erleichterten Abruf sensorbezogener Daten über zusätzliche Kommunikationskanäle zwischen Sensor und mobilen Endgeräten über vollständig bidirektionale Kommunikation bis hin zur Einbindung der Cloud und des Internets in virtualisierte Umgebungen. Um zu einer störungsfreien Kommunikation aller Sensoren untereinander zu kommen, muss mindestens ein einheitliches Protokoll her, das alle Sensoren sprechen und verstehen. Der derzeit greifbarste offengelegte Standard, der moderne Kommunikationsanforderungen erfüllt, ist OPC Unified Architecture (OPC-UA). Viele halten das Sortieren der Kommunikationsstandards für eines der wesentlichen Errungenschaften von Industrie 4.0. Eine Topologie für smarte Sensoren, das Zusammenwirken mit daten- und modellbasierte Steuerungen bis hin zur Softsensorik sowie weitere Anforderungen an Sensoren sind jedoch heute noch nicht angemessen beschrieben. Wir müssen jetzt schnell die Weichen für eine smarte und sichere Kommunikationsarchitektur stellen, um zu einer störungsfreien Kommunikation aller Sensoren auf Basis eines einheitlichen Protokolls zu kommen, welches alle Sensoren ausgeben und verstehen. Aktuelle und zukünftige öffentliche Förderung von Industrie 4.0-Projekten sind eine gute Investition. Wegen der hohen Komplexität und Interdisziplinarität gelingt die Umsetzung nur gemeinsam zwischen Anwendern aus der Prozessindustrie, Software- und Geräteherstellern und Forschungsgruppen. Anwender sind gefragt, diese neue Technologie durch eine beschleunigte Validierung und Akzeptanz umzusetzen. Sie erhalten die einzigartige Chance, ihre Prozesse und Anlagen wettbewerbsfähig zu halten. Kooperativ betriebenen F&E-Zentren und gemeinsam anerkannten Applikationslaboren kommt dafür eine hohe Bedeutung zu.

This is particularly important for, self-diagnostics, self-calibration and self-configuration/parameterization. Intelligent field devices, digital field networks, Internet Protocol (IP)-enabled connectivity and web services, historians, and advanced data analysis software are providing the basis for the future project “Industrie 4.0” and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Important smart features include connectivity and communication ability according to a unified protocol (OPC-UA currently most widely discussed), maintenance and operating functions, traceability and compliance, virtual description to support a continuous engineering, and well as interaction capabilities between sensors. This is a prerequisite for the realization of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) within these future automation concepts for the process industry. Therefore, smart process sensors enable new business models for users, device manufacturers, and service providers. The departure from current automation to smart sensor has already begun. Further development is based on the actual situation over several steps. Possible perspectives will be via additional communication channels to mobile devices, bidirectional communication, integration of the cloud and virtualization. The integration of virtual runtime environments can provide a more flexible topology for process control environments. The talk summarizes the currently discussed requirements to process sensors 4.0 and introduces an online NMR sensor as an example, which was developed in the EU project CONSENS.
