There have been an increasing number of publications on flow chemistry applications of compact NMR. Despite this, there is so far no comprehensive workflow for the technical design of flow cells. Here, we present an approach that is suitable for the design of an NMR flow cell with an integrated static mixing unit. This design moves the mixing of reactants to the active NMR detection region within the NMR instrument, presenting a feature that analyses chemical reactions faster (5–120 s region) than other common setups. During the design phase, the targeted mixing homogeneity of the components was evaluated for different types of mixing units based on CFD simulation. Subsequently, the flow cell was additively manufactured from ceramic material and metal tubing. Within the targeted working mass flow range, excellent mixing properties as well as narrow line widths were confirmed in validation experiments, comparable to common glass tubes.
Die BAM ist nahezu über die gesamte Wertschöpfungskette hinweg wissenschaftlich tätig. Von der sicheren und effizienten Wasserstofferzeugung (POWER-to-GAS), über die (Zwischen-)Speicherung von Wasserstoff in Druckgasspeichern bis hin zum Transport bspw. mittels Trailerfahrzeug zum Endverbraucher.
Komplettiert werden die Aktivitäten der BAM durch die sicherheitstechnische Beurteilung von wasserstoffhaltigen Gasgemischen, die Verträglichkeitsbewertung von Werkstoffen bis hin zur Detektion von Wasserstoffkonzentrationen über geeignete Sensorik, auch mittels ferngesteuerter Messdrohnen (sog. UAV-Drohnen).
Zudem untersucht die BAM proaktiv Schadensrisiken und Unfallszenarien für die Sicherheitsbetrachtung, um mögliche Schwachstellen aufzeigen und potenzielle Gefährdungen erkennen zu können.
Flexible automation with compact NMR spectroscopy for continuous production of pharmaceuticals
(2019)
Modular plants using intensified continuous processes represent an appealing concept for the production of pharmaceuticals. It can improve quality, safety, sustainability, and profitability compared to batch processes; besides, it enables plug-and-produce reconfiguration for fast product changes. To facilitate this flexibility by real-time quality control, we developed a solution that can be adapted quickly to new processes and is based on a compact nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer. The NMR sensor is a benchtop device enhanced to the requirements of automated chemical production including robust evaluation of sensor data. Beyond monitoring the product quality, online NMR data was used in a new iterative optimization approach to maximize the plant profit and served as a reliable reference for the calibration of a near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer. The overall approach
was demonstrated on a commercial-scale pilot plant using a metal-organic reaction with pharmaceutical relevance.
Modular plants using intensified continuous processes represent an appealing concept to produce pharmaceuticals. It can improve quality, safety, sustainability, and profitability compared to batch processes, and it enables plug-and-produce reconfiguration for fast product changes. To facilitate this flexibility by real-time quality control, we developed a solution that can be adapted quickly to new processes and includes a compact Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometer for online quality monitoring as well as a new model-based control approach. The NMR sensor is a benchtop device enhanced to the requirements of automated chemical production including ro-bust evaluation of sensor data.
Here, we present alternatives for the quantitative determination of the analytes using modular, physically motivated models. These models can be adapted to new substances solely by the use of their corresponding pure component spectra, which can either be derived from experimental spectra as well as from quantum mechanical models or NMR predictors. Modular means that spec-tral models can simply be exchanged together with alternate reagents and products. Beyond that, we comprehensively calibrated an NIR spectrometer based on online NMR process data for the first time within an industrial plant. The integrated solution was developed for a metal organic reac-tion running on a commercial-scale modular pilot plant and it was tested under industrial conditions.
Um in einem veränderten Umfeld erfolgreich bestehen zu können, müssen Chemieunternehmen neue Pfade beschreiten. Dazu gehört insbesondere das Potential digitaler Technologien. Mit flexiblen, modularen chemischen Vielzweck-Produktionsanlagen lassen sich häufig wechselnde Produkte mit kürzeren Vorlauf- und Stillstandzeiten zwischen den Kampagnen und dennoch hoher Qualität realisieren. Intensivierte, kontinuierliche Produktionsanlagen erlauben auch den Umgang mit schwierig zu handhabenden Substanzen.
Grundvoraussetzung für solche Konzepte ist eine hochautomatisierte "chemische" Prozesskontrolle zusammen mit Echtzeit-Qualitätskotrolle, die "chemische" Informationen über den Prozess bereitstellt. In einem Anwendungsbeispiel wurde eine pharmazeutische Lithiierungsreaktion aus einer modularen Pilot-Anlage betrachtet und dabei die Vorzüge eines vollautomatischen NMR-Sensors untersucht. Dazu wurde ein kommerziell erhältliches Benchtop-NMR-Spektrometer mit Permanentmagnet auf die industriellen Anforderungen, wie Explosionsschutz, Feldkommunikation und vollautomatischer, robuster Datenauswertung angepasst. Der NMR-Sensor konnte schließlich erfolgreich im vollautomatischen Betrieb nach fortschrittlichen Regelkonzepten und für die Echtzeitoptimierung der Anlage getestet werden. Die NMR-Spektroskopie erwies sich als hervorragende Online-Methode und konnte zusammen mit einer modularen Datenauswertung sehr flexibel genutzt werden. Die Methode konnte überdies als zuverlässige Referenzmethode zur Kalibrierung konventioneller Online-Analytik eingesetzt werden.
Zukünftig werden voll integrierte und intelligent vernetzte "smarte" Sensoren und Prozesse eine kontinuierliche Produktion von Chemikalien und Pharmazeutika mit vertretbaren Qualitätskosten möglich machen.
Chemical companies must find new paths to successfully survive in a changing environment. 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.
In future, such fully integrated and intelligently interconnecting “smart” systems and processes can speed up the high-quality production of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals.

Analysis of dynamic systems
(2019)
Monitoring specific information (i.e., physico-chemical properties, chemical reactions, etc.) is the key to chemical process control when looking at dynamic systems, and quantitative online NMR spectroscopy is the method of choice for the investigation and understanding of dynamic multi-component systems. NMR provides rapid and non-invasive information, and due to the inherent linearity between sample concentration and signal intensity, peak areas can be directly used for quantification of multiple components in a mixture (without the need for any further calibration). This is one of the most attractive features of quantitative NMR spectroscopy. With the launch of devices covering magnetic field strengths from 40 to 90 MHz, so called compact or benchtop NMR systems, this analytical method is now reaching a sufficient degree of compactness and operability for an application outside of very specialized laboratories.
Whilst there are also many other tools available to examine various analytical parameters from dynamic processes, such as mass spectrometry, (near) infrared or Raman spectroscopy, each of these tools can only really be used independently. How can we examine and compare all data describing a particular chemical reaction? How can we visualize information rich, specific, or direct methods together with less specific but established analytical methods? And how can we transfer calibration information to the most appropriate process analytical method or method combination? Quantitative NMR spectroscopy (qNMR) has the potential to substitute offline laboratory analysis for calibration purposes by delivering quantitative reference data as an online method.
The workshop briefly presents the current state of the art of the analysis of dynamic systems by online NMR spectroscopy and analytical data fusion, with the remaining time being used for questions and open discussion with the attendees.
In 2018, BAM (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing) and the young analysts of the department Analytical Chemistry at the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (German Chemical Society, GDCh) jointly organized the second summer school on quality assurance in analytical chemistry in Berlin, Germany. Over fifty doctoral students that are still in the initial stages of work participated in the week-long event and the participants were confronted with the most important basic concepts of internal and external systems of quality assurance in analytical chemistry.
Especially young scientists and scholars deal with the development of analysis methods and often generate an increasingly growing wealth of data. Results are mostly evaluated under quantitative aspects and need to be assessed subject-specifically. In addition to the purely scientific requirements these results also should meet the requirements of analytical quality assurance. For this purpose, the development of analytical methods is accompanied by a process of validation – the documented proof that a method is suitable for the intended purpose and the defined requirements.
This talk summarizes the didactic concept, which was used by the organizers to span an arc from the handling of process characteristics, such as accuracy, precision, linearity, recovery, up to measurement uncertainty and modern multivariate analysis techniques. In an open space workshop, the participants discussed their idea of quality management and worked out requirements after common sense. Interestingly, many participants had already implemented important quality assurance without professionally knowing it.
Chemical companies must find new paths to successfully survive in a changing environment. 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 while being based on “chemical” information.
As an example, a fully automated NMR sensor is introduced, using a given pharmaceutical lithiation reaction as an example process within a modular pilot plant. Therefore, a commercially available benchtop NMR spectrometer was adapted 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.
A full integration and intelligent interconnection of such systems and processes progresses only hesitantly. The talk should encourage to re-think digitization of process industry based on smart sensors, actuators, and communication more comprehensively and informs about current technical perspectives such as the “one-network paradigm”, edge computing, or virtual machines. These give smart sensors, actuators, and communication a new perspective.
