Smart functions of sensors will simplify their use and enable plug-and-play integration, even though they may appear to be more complex at first sight. This is particularly important for concepts like self-diagnostics, self-calibration and self-configuration/parameterization. Intelligent field devices as parts of digital field networks, Inter-net Protocol (IP)-based connectivity and web interfaces, as well as advanced data analysis soft-ware will provide the basis for future projects like Industrie 4.0, Factory of the Future, or Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The talk summarizes the currently discussed general requirements for process sensors 4.0 and introduces an online NMR sensor as example. This sensor was developed to provide integrated control and sensing for sustainable operation of flexible intensified processes (CONSENS) funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.

Insbesondere die direkte Anbindung von Methoden der Online-Prozessanalytik ermöglicht tiefgehende Einblicke in die tatsächlich ablaufenden Vorgänge innerhalb chemischer und pharmazeutischer Produktionsschritte und der damit einhergehenden Regelungskonzepte. Während die industrielle Anwendung der Online-Raman-Spektroskopie bereits erfolgreich gezeigt wurde, ist die Niederfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie als Online-Methode für die Prozessindustrie bislang noch nicht zugänglich. Der hohe Informationsgehalt verbunden mit einem Wegfall des Kalibrationsaufwands macht die NMR-Spektroskopie zu einer vielversprechenden Methode für die moderne Prozessautomation mit äußerst kurzen Rüstzeiten und geringem Validierungsbedarf. Diese Vorteile zahlen sich insbesondere für Multi-Purpose-Anlagen sowie für Prozesse mit stark schwankender Rohstoffqualität aus. Im Rahmen des EU-Projekts CONSENS wurde ein industrietauglicher NMR-Analysator basierend auf einem kommerziell verfügbaren Laborgerät entwickelt. Dies umfasst neben der Anbindung an den Prozess vor allem die Erfüllung von Randbedingungen wie zuverlässige Automatisierung und Explosionsschutz, sowie die Integration in sowohl klassische als auch moderne Kommunikationsstrukturen. Das Konzept wurde an zwei Beispielen aus den Bereichen der pharmazeutischen sowie der großtechnischen Prozessindustrie erprobt. Als eine Beispielreaktion wurde ein Teilschritt einer kontinuierlichen pharmazeutischen Synthese gewählt (Kopplung der zwei aromatischen Systeme Anilin und o-Fluornitrobenzol unter Verwendung eines Lithiumorganyls). Die Reaktion stellt hohe Anforderungen an die automatisierte Auswertung der erhaltenen Prozess-Spektren, die mit physikalisch motivierter Analyse der NMR-Spektraldaten gelöst wurde. Daneben wurde die Synthese des technisch relevanten Lösungsmittels Tetrahydrofuran mit dem Teilschritt der katalytischen Hydrierung von 2-Butin-1,4-diol als Beispielreaktion ausgewählt, die über ein Zwischenprodukt verläuft und Konkurrenzreaktionen aufweist. Dieses System bietet die Möglichkeit der Kombination unterschiedlicher spektroskopischer und klassischer Prozessinformationen von beispielsweise Druck-, Temperatur- und Durchfluss-Messstellen für die Entwicklung innovativer Regelungskonzepte.

Today, mainly optical online methods are applied, which are calibration intensive. NMR spectroscopy has a high potential for direct loop process control while cutting the calibration and validation needs to an minimum and thus exhibiting short set-up times. Compact NMR instruments make NMR spectroscopy accessible in industrial and harsh environments for advanced process monitoring and control. Intensified continuous processes are in focus of current research. Flexible (modular) chemical plants can produce different products using the same equipment with short down-times between campaigns and quick introduction of new products to the market. In continuous flow processes online sensor data and tight closed-loop control of the product quality are mandatory. Data analysis techniques are available but currently mostly used for off-line data analysis to detect the causes of variations in the product quality. This is addressed within the EU’s Research Project CONSENS by the development and integration of a smart NMR module for process monitoring. The presented NMR module is provided in a mobile explosion proof housing and involves a compact spectrometer together with an acquisition unit and a programmable logic controller for automated data preparation (phasing, baseline correction), and evaluation. Such “smart sensors” provide the basis for the future project “Industrie 4.0”, and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), along with current requirements to process control, model based control, or soft sensing. The module transforms the acquired online spectra of various technically relevant reactions to either conventional 4‒20 mA signals as well as WiFi based OPC-UA communication protocols, which enables NMR-based advanced process control and funny discussions with plant managers along with automation and safety engineers.

An increasing number of applications are reported. Robust field integration of NMR systems have to face explosion protection or integration into process control systems with short set-up times. Tis paves the way for industrial automation in real process environments. Automated data preparation and analysis are cornerstones for a breakthrough of NMR techniques for process control. Particularly, robust chemometrics as well as automated signal processing methods have to be (further) developed especially for NMR spectroscopy in process control. This becomes even more important for so called “smart sensors” providing the basis for the future project “Industrie 4.0”, and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), along with current requirements to process control, model based control, or soft sensing. Data analysis techniques are available but currently mostly used for off-line data analysis to detect the causes of variations in the product quality. The talk presents current research activities towards process control with compact NMR and reflects “cultural differences” between the interdisciplinary parties involved.

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.
