One of the fundamental acceptance criteria for online MR-MNR spectroscopy is a robust data treatment and evaluation strategy with the potential for automation. The MR-NMR spectra were treated by an automated baseline and phase correction using the minimum entropy method. The evaluation strategies comprised direct integration, automated line fitting, indirect hard modeling, and partial least squares regression. T2 - 10.

This industrial relevant production process demands further research for optimization and expansion. For that purpose, the fiber optic coupled probe of a process Raman spectrometer is directly introduced in the product stream, which enables the recording of spectra within short control intervals.

Next to Near-infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy is increasingly applied as a powerful online tool to monitor bioprocesses. However, Raman spectra may be obscured by straylight, cosmic rays and fluorescence. To achieve the best performance, optimal conditions for spectral quality and stability should be pursued. This comprises not only the choice of highly-sensitive equipment, but also the way of implementation into the process. Here we compared the potential of introducing a sterilized fiber optical Raman probe, and a flow-through cell into the bypass of a stirred tank reactor to monitor an autotrophic cultivation of Ralstonia eutropha where gasses are the energy and carbon sources. Raman spectra were continuously recorded over seven days and 22 samples were taken for the reference analytics of biomass, optical density, and protein. In addition, data for of phosphate and ammonium were available. The quantitative Evaluation of Raman spectra by Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) yielded comparable results for both approaches, however, there was a general trend of lower prediction errors with the immersion probe. The better performance of the non-contact optic may be either related to a more representative interaction of the measurement optics with the probe or simply to the absence of probe-fouling, which was observed with the immersion optic in the interstice between window and metal frame.

NMR spectroscopy has a high potential for direct loop process control while exhibiting short set-up times. Compact NMR instruments make NMR spectroscopy accessible in industrial and harsh environments for advanced process Monitoring and control, as demonstrated within the European Union’s Horizon 2020 project CONSENS. We present a range of approaches for the automated spectra analysis moving from conventional multivariate statistical approach, (i.e., Partial Least Squares Regression) to physically motivated spectral models (i.e., Indirect Hard Modelling and Quantum Mechanical calculations). By using the benefits of traditional qNMR experiments data analysis models can meet the demands of the PAT community (Process Analytical Technology) regarding low calibration effort/calibration free methods, fast adaptions for new reactants or derivatives and robust automation schemes.

While (the still valid and used for accreditation purposes) ISO Guides 34 and 35 describe in detail requirements applicable to RMP dealing with quantitative RM, accreditation bodies normally claim lack of normative requirements with respect to quantitative RM. The new ISO 17034:2016 which will be introduced in the accreditation practice over the next two to three years solves the problem pragmatically, allowing strategies for RM certification other than those for (purely) quantitative materials. In fact, both ISO Guide 34 and the new ISO 17034 are written in a form that, at least for the overwhelming majority of requirements, may be applied to RMP of both qualitative and quantitative RM. Peculiarities may occur in homogeneity and stability testing, and the uncertainty of a purely qualitative result is still under discussion. The problem of traceability might be solved for most of the application fields considered. The talk gives an overview of the specific problems encountered, and provides some possible solutions both for homogeneity and stability testing, the expression of uncertainty, and the statement of traceability in certificates.

Proficiency testing providers attract up to a thousand of participants in PT schemes purely oriented on qualitative results. The RM used for these kinds of PT are poorly regulated, nevertheless with a more and more general acceptance of accreditation in the field of RM production and PT provision, there is an ever increasing interest in assessing producers and providers according to rules already well accepted in the field of quantitative analysis. The basic governing document, ISO 17034:2016, is written in a form that, at least for the overwhelming majority of requirements, may be applied to both qualitative and quantitative RM. However, problems remain. In particular, the expression of uncertainty of a purely qualitative result is still unresolved, and under discussion, the latter now lasting already dozens of years. Some handles would be needed. In the poster, existing approaches and some pragmatic, new ways to tackle the problem are displayed and discussed.

A1 - Maiwald, Michael T1 - Online low-field NMR spectroscopy for process control of an industrial lithiation reaction—automated data analysis N2 - Monitoring specific chemical properties is the key to chemical process control. Today, mainly optical online methods are applied, which require time- and cost-intensive calibration effort. NMR spectroscopy, with its advantage being a direct comparison method without need for calibration, has a high potential for closed-loop process control while exhibiting short set-up times. Compact NMR instruments make NMR spectroscopy accessible in industrial and rough environments for process monitoring and advanced process control strategies. We present a fully automated data analysis approach which is completely based on physically motivated spectral models as first principles information (Indirect Hard Modelling – IHM) and applied it to a given pharmaceutical lithiation reaction in the framework of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 project CONSENS. Online low-field NMR (LF NMR) data was analysed by IHM with low calibration effort, compared to a multivariate PLS-R (Partial Least Squares Regression) approach, and both validated using online high-field NMR (HF NMR) spectroscopy.

To monitor the degree of contamination analytical methods are urgently needed, which help to quantify microplastics (MP). Currently, time-costly purified materials enriched on filters are investigated both by micro-infrared spectroscopy and/or micro-Raman. Although yielding precise results, these techniques are time consuming, and are restricted to the analysis of a small part of the sample in the order of few micrograms. To overcome these problems, here we tested a macroscopic dimensioned NIR process-spectroscopic method in combination with chemometrics. For calibration, artificial MP/soil mixtures containing defined ratios of polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, and polystyrene with diameters < 125 µm were prepared and measured by a process FT-NIR spectrometer equipped with a fiber optic reflection probe. The resulting spectra were processed by chemometric models including support vector machine regression (SVR), and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). Validation of models by MP mixtures, MP-free soils and real-world samples, e.g. and fermenter residue, suggest a reliable detection and a possible classification of MP at levels above 0.5 to 1.0 mass% depending on the polymer. The benefit of the combined NIRS chemometric approach lies in the rapid assessment whether soil contains MP, without any chemical pre-treatment. The method can be used with larger sample volumes and even allows for an online prediction and thus meets the demand of a high-throughput method.

For this purpose, artificial MP/soil mixture samples consisting of standard soils or sand with defined ratios of MP (0,5 – 10 mass% polymer) from polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) were prepared. MP particles with diameters < 2 mm and < 125 µm were obtained from industrial polymer pellets after cryo-milling. Spectra of these mixtures were collected by (i) a process FT-NIR spectrometer equipped with a reflection probe, (ii) by a cw-process Raman spectrometer and (iii) by a time-gated Raman spectrometer using fiber-optic probes. The evaluation of process-spectra was performed by chemometric methods. Whereas MP could be detected by Raman spectroscopy in coastal sand at 0.5 mass%, in standard soil detection of MP was limited to 10 – 5 mass% with the large fraction, but samples containing particles of the 125µm mass-fraction yielded no positive result at all. One reason for the lacking sensitivity could be fluorescence by soil organic matter and thus, in a next test time-gated Raman spectroscopy was applied. However, although being indeed more sensitive to the small particles this method failed at MP < 5 mass% indicating that fluorescence was not the major problem. Finally, FT-NIR was tested. Depending on the polymer, MP contents of 0,5 or 1 mass%, respectively, could be detected in standard soils and polymers identified. Furthermore, this approach could be used for the investigation of mixtures of up to four polymers and in real-world samples from bio-waste fermenter residues.
