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.
ISO/IEC 17025 is the worldwide quality standard for testing and calibration laboratories. 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.
Companies in the chemical industry have to tread new paths in order to survive successfully in a changed environment. This includes, in particular, the potential of digital technologies. The full integration and intelligent networking of systems and processes is making slow progress.
This talk is a tribute to the field level. It wants to encourage a more holistic approach to the digitalisation of the process industry based on smart sensors, actuators and communication and provides information on current technical perspectives, such as the "one-network paradigm", ad-hoc networking, edge computing, FPGAs, virtual machines or blockchain. These give smart sensors, actuators and communication a completely new perspective.
The European project MefHySto addresses the need of large-scale energy storage, which is required for a shift to renewable energy supply. The project is funded by the European Metrology Programme on Innovation and Research (EMPIR) and consists of 14 consortium partners from all over Europe (www.mefhysto.eu). It is demonstrated, how MefHySto is contributing to the EMN for Energy Gases aiming at prioritisation of the measurement gaps and challenges interacting with the EMN stakeholders.
Introduction
NMR spectroscopy is one of the most important analytical methods in organic chemistry. While most analyses are carried out qualitatively with the aim of substance identification and structure elucidation, quantitative NMR spectroscopy (qNMR) is increasingly gaining importance in research and industry. qNMR provides the most universally applicable form of direct purity determination without need for reference materials of impurities or the calculation of response factors but only exhibiting suitable NMR properties.
Methods
One of the most attractive features of quantitative NMR spectroscopy is that the NMR peak areas can be used directly for concentration quantification without further calibration. Another advantage of NMR spectroscopy is that the method has a high linearity between absolute signal area and sample concentration, which makes it an absolute analytical comparison method that is independent of the matrix. This enables automated robust data evaluation strategies that can be used for online applications of qNMR spectroscopy.
Jancke et al. proposed NMR spectroscopy as a relative primary analytical method because it can be fully described by mathematical equations from which a complete uncertainty budget can be derived, allowing it to be used at the highest metrological level. Weber et al. discussed in detail important aspects of the procedure that enable the realisation of low measurement uncertainties in qNMR measurements. Since certification of CRM requires expanded mea¬sure¬ment uncertainties of less than 0.5 % (relative), the work of Weber et al. demonstrated for the first time that qNMR can fulfil this criterion.
Results
To date, further comparative studies have been carried out in metrology and industry, demonstrating the performance of quantitative NMR spectroscopy and further reducing measurement uncertainties. The development of validation concepts and the commercial availability of suitable certified reference materials facilitate the application, especially in the usually highly regulated industrial environment. Users can thus accelerate the development of analytical methods. The talk will cover a wide range of topics from current metrological activities to new challenges for qNMR spectroscopy and also deals with aspects such as validation and accreditation.
Innovative aspects
• qNMR provides the most universally applicable form of direct purity determination
• Expanded measurement uncertainties lower than 0.15 % (relative) possible
• Benchtop NMR instruments increasingly used for qNMR spectroscopy
Compact nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instruments make NMR spectroscopy and relaxometry accessible in industrial and harsh environments for reaction and process control. 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.
The Royal Society of Chemistry NMR Discussion Group and Molecular Spectroscopy Group would like to invite you to the 2017 Spring Meeting, which will be held at GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), Stevenage. The theme for the meeting is “Low level detection and quantification by NMR” and different NMR technologies, including solution state NMR, solid state NMR and benchtop/low field NMR will be discussed. The presentations will cover a range of NMR related disciplines, including conventional low level detection and quantification, the use of cryoprobes, quantification of polymorphism using ssNMR and also methods for spectral simplification. Recent developments and applications of hyperpolarisation techniques, within both solution state and solid state NMR, will be presented in conjunction with the effect these sensitivity enhancements have with respect to quantification and limits of detection.
