Die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit der Chemisch-Pharmazeutischen Industrie basiert auf der Sicherung der geforderten Produktqualität bei einer optimalen Nutzung von Anlagen, Rohstoffen und Energie. Eine gute Prozessführung unter Einsatz zuverlässiger Prozessautomation sichert hier den globalen Wettbewerbsvorteil. Initiiert von NAMUR und GMA und unter Mitwirkung der Unternehmen ABB, BASF, BTS, BIS Prozesstechnik, E+H, Siemens und der BAM entstand jetzt die grundlegend aktualisierte und überarbeitete Technologie-Roadmap "Prozess-Sensoren 2015+", die im November 2009 veröffentlicht wurde.
Die Sensorik von morgen
(2010)
Eine gleich bleibend effektive Nutzung von Anlagen, Rohstoffen und Energie in Verbindung mit der optimalen Prozessführung sind die wichtigsten Voraussetzungen für globale Wettbewerbsvorteile der Prozessindustrie.
Unternehmen aus den Bereichen Chemie, Pharmazie, Petrochemie, Gasverarbeitung, Lebensmittel-, Zellstoff-, Papier-, Glas-, Stahl- und Zementherstellung sowie ihren Zulieferern haben den Einsatz zuverlässiger Prozessautomation für eine gute Prozessführung erkannt. Überlegene Verfahren stützen sich zunehmend auf prozessanalytische Messtechnik zur Kontrolle und präventiven Sicherstellung der geforderten Produktqualität. Gleichzeitig ermöglicht sie eine ständige Verbesserung des Wissens über den Prozess und erhöhen die Prozess- und Anlagensicherheit.
Prozessanalytik: Konzepte und Strategien Prozessanalytik in Flüssigkeiten (Hardwareüberblick)
(2011)
Vor 100 Jahren, am 22. Mai 1913, erhielt Dr. Paul Gmelin, Mitarbeiter im physikalischen Laboratorium der Badischen Anilin und Soda Fabrik in Ludwigshafen das erste Patent auf ein Prozessanalysenmessgerät. Dieses Jubiläum würdigt CITplus mit diesem Beitrag, in dem die Autoren nicht nur die vergangene sondern auch eine mögliche künftige Entwicklung der Prozessanalysentechnik (PAT) Revue passieren lassen.
Medium resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (MR-NMR) spectroscopy is currently a fast developing field, which has an enormous potential to become an important analytical tool for reaction monitoring, in hyphenated techniques, and for systematic investigations of complex mixtures. The recent developments of innovative MR-NMR spectrometers are therefore remarkable due to their possible applications in quality control, education, and process monitoring. MR-NMR spectroscopy can beneficially be applied for fast, non-invasive, and volume integrating analyses under rough environmental conditions.
Within this study, a simple 1/16'' fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) tube with an ID of 0.04'' (1.02 mm) was used as a flow cell in combination with a 5 mm glass Dewar tube inserted into a benchtop MR-NMR spectrometer with a 1H Larmor frequency of 43.32 MHz and 40.68 MHz for 19F. For the first time, quasi-simultaneous proton and fluorine NMR spectra were recorded with a series of alternating 19F and 1H single scan spectra along the reaction time coordinate of a homogeneously catalysed esterification model reaction containing fluorinated compounds. The results were compared to quantitative NMR spectra from a hyphenated 500 MHz online NMR instrument for validation. Automation of handling, pre-processing, and analysis of NMR data becomes increasingly important for process monitoring applications of online NMR spectroscopy and for its technical and practical acceptance. Thus, NMR spectra were automatically baseline corrected and phased using the minimum entropy method. Data analysis schemes were designed such that they are based on simple direct integration or first principle line fitting, with the aim that the analysis directly revealed molar concentrations from the spectra.
Finally, the performance of 1/16'' FEP tube set-up with an ID of 1.02 mm was characterised regarding the limit of detection (LOQ (1H) = 0.335 mol L-1 and LOQ (19F) = 0.130 mol L-1 for trifluoroethanol in D2O (single scan)) and maximum quantitative flow rates up to 0.3 mL min-1. Thus, a series of single scan 19F and 1H NMR spectra acquired with this simple set-up already presents a valuable basis for quantitative reaction monitoring.
In der Forschung wird die Kernspinresonanzspektroskopie (NMR-Spektroskopie von englisch: nuclear magnetic resonance) für die Strukturaufklärung und Quantifizierung genutzt. Eine Arbeitsgruppe an der Berliner Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) und am Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) hat die Möglichkeiten untersucht, die NMR-Spektroskopie auch als Online-Methode für das Monitoring chemischer Reaktionen in der Prozesskontrolle einsetzbar zu machen.
Die Entwicklung innovativer Medium-Resolution-NMR-Spektrometer eröffnet eine Reihe bemerkenswerter Applikationen für die Qualitätskontrolle, die akademische Ausbildung und die Prozessanalytik. Die Verwendung von Permanentmagneten erlaubt den Einsatz der NMR-Spektroskopie in industriellen Prozessumgebungen.
Derzeit finden gravierende Veränderungen im Umfeld der Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik statt, die eine große Chance für die optimierte Prozessführung und Wertschöpfung mit darauf abgestimmten vernetzt kommunizierenden Sensoren bieten. Diese Art „smarte“ Sensoren stellen Dienste innerhalb eines Netzwerks bereit und nutzen Informationen daraus. Dieses ist die Voraussetzung für die Realisierung von Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) innerhalb zukünftiger Automatisierungskonzepte für die Prozessindustrie, wie sie auch durch das Zukunftsprojekt „Industrie 4.0“ adressiert werden.
Initiiert von NAMUR und VDI/GMA und unter Mitwirkung der Unternehmen ABB, BASF, BTS, Bilfinger Maintenance, Endress+Hauser, Evonik, Festo, Krohne, Lanxess, Siemens, des Fraunhofer ICT, der HS Reutlingen und der BAM (Projektleitung) entstand jetzt die grundlegend aktualisierte und überarbeitete Technologie-Roadmap „Prozess-Sensoren 4.0“, die am 06. November 2015 auf der NAMUR-Hauptsitzung in Bad Neuenahr wurde.
Online NMR spectroscopy as an essential tool in a multi-spectral reaction understanding approach
(2015)
Medium-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MR-NMR) currently develops to an important analytical tool for both quality control and processmonitoring. In contrast to high-resolution onlineNMR (HR-NMR),MR-NMRcan be operated under rough environmental conditions. A continuous re-circulating stream of reaction mixture fromthe reaction vessel to the NMR spectrometer enables a non-invasive, volume integrating online analysis of reactants and products. Here, we investigate the esterification of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol with acetic acid to 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acetate both by 1H HR-NMR (500MHz) and 1H and 19F MRNMR (43MHz) as amodel system. The parallel online measurement is realised by splitting the flow,which allows the adjustment of quantitative and independent flow rates, both in the HR-NMR probe as well as in the MR-NMR probe, in addition to a fast bypass line back to the reactor. 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 are treated by an automated baseline and phase correction using the minimum entropy method. The evaluation strategies comprise (i) direct integration, (ii) automated line fitting, (iii) indirect hard modelling (IHM) and (iv) partial least squares regression (PLS-R). To assess the potential of these evaluation strategies for MR-NMR, prediction results are compared with the line fitting data derived from the quantitative HR-NMR spectroscopy. Although, superior results are obtained from both IHM and PLS-R for 1H MR-NMR, especially the latter demands for elaborate data pretreatment, whereas IHM models needed no previous alignment.
Die gravierenden Veränderungen im Umfeld der Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik beeinflussen auch die Prozessautomation und sind zugleich eine Chance. Denn die Automatisierungskonzepte gemäß Industrie 4.0 sichern den Wettbewerbsvorteil einer Volkswirtschaft. Ein zentrales Element bilden dabei smarte Sensoren, die Dienste innerhalb eines Netzwerks bereitstellen und Information daraus nutzen. Die im November 2015 vorgestellte Technologieroadmap Prozess-Sensoren 4.0 [1] zeigt Anforderungen an smarte Prozess-Sensoren auf. Der Beitrag befasst sich mit den Fragen „Was kann der Prozess-Sensor zu Industrie 4.0 beitragen?“ und „Welchen Nutzen bringt Industrie 4.0 für den Prozess-Sensor?“
Resolving overlapping peaks of multiple components. Relative primary analytical method - Fundamental relationship of qNMR.
Heute wie morgen müssen Prozess-Sensoren zuerst die Aufgabe des Messens und der Generierung von Prozessinformationen erfüllen. Die Mess-Signale gehen in der Regel auf physikalische oder chemische Größen zurück, werden durch eine Kennlinie repräsentiert und lassen sich kalibrieren. Heute muss man dazu einen großen Aufwand betreiben, denn die physikalischen oder chemischen Informationen werden in vielen Fällen nicht direkt gemessen, sondern verbergen sich in Rohdaten, z. B. in einem optischen Spektrum. Diese Kalibrierungen können für komplexe Sensoren teilweise mehr Kostenaufwand bedeuten, als das Messgerät selbst.
Resource Analytics with the help of process analytical technology and the use of online methods is becoming increasingly important for mining and processing technologies and for the recovery of raw materials from secondary raw materials. Current online analytical methods like laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), X-ray fluorescence analysis (RFA), or Raman spectroscopy for the characterization of primary and secondary raw materials are increasingly being used in close association with the technologies for exploration and extraction, mechanical and metallurgical processing, as well as for recycling. Because of the complex matrices such methods are a considerable challenge at the same time. The use of reference materials, which are derived from appropriate matrices, can considerably shorten calibration and method development times. As an example, the development of an online process control method for recovery of phosphorus from sewage sludge ashes is discussed. A combination of LIBS and RFA was developed for the determination of element contents in sewage sludge ashes and their products coming from a thermo-chemical reprocessing step, which removes pollutants.
Troubleshooting Samples Analytics:
Impurities in products: unexpected & unwanted occurrence, unknown identity, analytical method unclear, often various analytical methods, necessary, short response time important (< 1 d), benefits: allocation of its source within hours safes cost
• Investigations planned, coordinated and documented by TSA team
• Variety of analytical methods available
Online NMR spectroscopy is an excellent tool to study complex reacting multicomponent mixtures and gain process insight and understanding. For online studies under process conditions, flow NMR probes can be used in a wide range of temperature and pressure. This paper compiles the most important aspects towards quantitative process NMR spectroscopy in complex multicomponent mixtures and provides examples. After NMR spectroscopy is introduced as an online method and for technical samples without sample preparation in deuterated solvents, influences of the residence time distribution, pre-magnetization, and cell design are discussed. NMR acquisition and processing parameters as well as data preparation methods are presented and the most practical data analysis strategies are introduced.
Supernatants from a fermentation process of Pichia pastoris were investigated by Raman spectroscopy. Using partial least squares regression, the principal substrates glycerol and methanol could be predicted, however not the expressed protein. To gain further insight, a priori prepared calibration samples were studied by vibrational-, UV/Vis-, and fluorescence spectroscopy. For the quantification of glycerol and methanol, Raman spectroscopy was identified as the most sensitive technique, and superior to near-infrared spectroscopy, but not for protein contents below 1 g L–1. Both UV/Vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy are well suited for the quantification of protein, however, best results were obtained with UV/Vis absorption.

Ugly Spectra and Lousy interfaces – Challenges for Compact NMR Spectroscopy in Process Control
(2016)
With the introduction of advanced process analytical technology, the closeness of key process variables to their limits can be directly controlled and the product can be classified or even released in real time.
Compact NMR instruments can make NMR spectroscopy accessible in industrial and harsh environments for process control.
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. The development of CRMs addressing qNMR specific measurement issues will give analysts compounds ideally suited for the analytical method and also provide full characterisation of qNMR related parameters to enable more realistic uncertainty budgets. These materials will give users the tools to exploit qNMR more easily and enable them to speed up analytical method development and reduce the time and financial burden of multiple analytical testing.
Homogen katalysierte Reaktionen sind wichtige Werkzeuge der chemischen Industrie. Milde Reaktionsbedingungen und hohe Selektivitäten führen zu einer energie- und ressourcenschonenden Produktion. Ein bedeutender Prozessschritt ist die Hydroformylierung. Hier kommen Kobalt- und Rhodiumkomplexe mit mehrzähnigen Liganden zum Einsatz, die zumeist in wässriger Lösung vorliegen. Die Anwendbarkeit beschränkt sich demnach auf kurzkettige Edukte mit hinreichender Wasserlöslichkeit.
Competence Centre H2Safety@BAM – Safeguarding the Quality Infrastructure in the Hydrogen Economy
(2022)
Hydrogen is a central component of the energy transition and the European Green Deal for a climate-neutral Europe. To achieve the goals defined for 2050, the EU and the German government have developed a framework for action and are making long-term investments in research, development, and the rapid implementation of innovative hydrogen technologies.
With the Competence Centre "H2Safety@BAM", BAM is creating the safety-related prerequisites for the successful implementation of hydrogen technologies at national as well as European level.
To this end, BAM conducts research, testing and consulting in a holistic and inter-disciplinary manner under one roof – in the Competence Centre H2Safety@BAM. The activities of the competence centre focus on ensuring the safety of infra-structures, plants, and processes as well as innovative hydrogen transport and storage systems based on digital quality testing and the experimental testing of components and systems. It thus creates the prerequisites for the implementation and adaptation of legal framework conditions as well as for standardization. Closely related to this are investigations into the properties and compatibility of metallic materials and polymers as well as friction systems for the safe operation of components, plants, processes, and systems. This interdisciplinary and holistic approach is complemented by the development of gas analytics and suitable sensors, online measurements of gas properties in process control, test scenarios under real conditions as well as impact assessments of accidents and risk assessments and risk management systems derived from them. With its portfolio of tasks and competences, BAM builds trust in the safety and reliability of technical system solutions for hydrogen.

Die Nutzung von Sensortechnologien, insbesondere im Bereich der Gasdetektion mit einem Schwerpunkt auf Wasserstoff, spielt eine entscheidende Rolle in verschiedenen Anwendungsbereichen der Wasserstofftechnologie. Sicherheitsüberwachung, Leckdetektion und Prozesskontrolle gehören zu den prominenten Anwendungsgebieten dieser Sensortechnologien. Ein zentrales Ziel ist die Erkennung von freigesetztem Wasserstoff sowie die genaue Bestimmung des Wasserstoff-Luftverhältnisses mithilfe von Gassensoren. Dies ist von entscheidender Bedeutung, um potenzielle Gefahren frühzeitig zu erkennen und angemessene Maßnahmen zu ergreifen.
Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt dieses Beitrags liegt auf der Analytik und der Verwendung zertifizierter Referenzmaterialien in Verbindung mit Metrologie für die Wasserstoffspeicherung. Dies gewährleistet eine präzise und zuverlässige Charakterisierung von Wasserstoff und unterstützt die Entwicklung sicherer Speichertechnologien. Im Rahmen des Euramet-Vorhabens Metrology for Advanced Hydrogen Storage Solutions (MefHySto) wird eine Kurzvorstellung präsentiert.
Der Vortrag stellt zwei zerstörungsfreie Prüfverfahren zum strukturellen Zustandsüberwachung (Structural Health Monitoring, SHM) für Wasserstofftechnologien vor. Insbesondere die Fehlstellenerkennung mittels geführter Ultraschallwellen spielt eine bedeutende Rolle bei der Lebensdauerüberwachung von Wasserstoffspeichern. Ein weiterer Aspekt ist die Anwendung faseroptischer Sensorik zur Schadensfrüherkennung von Wasserstoffspeichern. Diese zerstörungsfreien Prüfverfahren ermöglichen eine präzise und frühzeitige Identifizierung von Schäden, was die Sicherheit und Effizienz von Wasserstoffspeichersystemen entscheidend verbessert.
This key comparison aims to assess the core capabilities of the participants in gas analysis. Such competences include, among others, the capabilities to prepare Primary Standard gas Mixtures (PSMs), perform the necessary purity analysis on the materials used in the gas mixture preparation, the verification of the composition of newly prepared PSMs against existing ones, and the capability of calibrating the composition of a gas mixture. According to the Strategy for Key Comparisons of the Gas Analysis Working Group, this key comparison is classified as an RMO track A key comparison.
The artefacts were binary mixtures of propane in nitrogen at a nominal amount-of-substance fraction level of 1000 μmol/mol. The values and uncertainties from the gravimetric gas mixture preparation were used as key comparison reference values (KCRVs). Each transfer standard had its own KCRV. The results are generally good. All results are within ± 1 % of the KCRV.
In dieser Arbeit werden die Grundlagen der Normung, die Entstehung einer Norm und die für die Gasanalytik relevanten Normungsgremien kurz dargestellt. Dazu werden die wichtigsten Normen zur Gasanalytik entlang des analytischen Prozesses gruppiert und aufgeführt. Schließlich wird als Anwendungsbeispiel aus der eigenen Praxis der Prozess von der Herstellung bis zur Zertifizierung eines Kalibriergases beschrieben.
Driven mostly by the search for chemical syntheses under biocompatible conditions, so called "click" chemistry rapidly became a growing field of research. The resulting simple one-pot reactions are so far only scarcely accompanied by an adequate optimization via comparably straightforward and robust analysis techniques possessing short set-up times. Here, we report on a fast and reliable calibration-free online NMR monitoring approach for technical mixtures. It combines a versatile fluidic system, continuous-flow measurement of 1H spectra with a time interval of 20 s per spectrum, and a robust, fully automated algorithm to interpret the obtained data. As a proof-of-concept, the thiol-ene coupling between N-boc cysteine methyl ester and allyl alcohol was conducted in a variety of non-deuterated solvents while its time-resolved behaviour was characterized with step tracer experiments. Overlapping signals in online spectra during thiol-ene coupling could be deconvoluted with a spectral model using indirect hard modeling and were subsequently converted to either molar ratios (using a calibrationfree approach) or absolute concentrations (using 1-point calibration). For various solvents the kinetic constant k for pseudo-first order reaction was estimated to be 3.9 h-1 at 25 °C. The obtained results were compared with direct integration of non-overlapping signals and showed good agreement with the implemented mass balance.
Quantitative NMR spectroscopy for gas analysis for production of primary reference gas mixtures
(2017)
Due to its direct correlation to the number of spins within a sample quantitative NMR spectroscopy (qNMR) is a promising method with absolute comparison abilities in complex systems in technical, as well as metrological applications. Most of the samples studied with qNMR are in liquid state in diluted solutions, while gas-phase applications represent a rarely applied case. Commercially available NMR equipment was used for purity assessment of liquid and liquefied hydrocarbons serving as raw materials for production of primary reference gas standards. Additionally, gas-phase studies were performed within an online NMR flow probe, as well as in a high-pressure NMR setup to check feasibility as verification method for the composition of gas mixtures.
Bei der Entwicklung pharmazeutischer Wirkstoffe werfen Substanzen mit einer geringen Löslichkeit, Auflösungsrate und damit einhergehend schlechten Bioverfügbarkeit immer größere Probleme auf. Diese Eigenschaften und nicht etwa toxikologische Eigenschaften oder schlechte Wirksamkeit sorgen dafür, dass es weniger als 1 % aller Wirkstoffe bis in die Markteinführung schaffen. Eine Reihe von Ansätzen zur Verbesserung der schlechten Wasserlöslichkeit konnten bereits etabliert werden. Hierunter zählen die gezielte Salzbildung bzw. Salzscreening, Solubilisierung mit Cosolventien oder die Nutzung von Polymeren als mögliche Transportwege. Eine weitere Möglichkeit bietet die Bildung verschiedener polymorpher Formen, sowohl der Einzelkomponente als auch von den verschiedenen Mehrkomponentenverbindungen.
This project concerns the purity analysis of nitrogen as used in reference gas mixture preparation. This project was carried out without adding impurities to the gas used for this comparison, and is therefore more representative to evaluate the analysis of CO, CO2, CH4, O2, Ar and H2O impurities in high purity nitrogen. The analysis of the amount–of–substance fraction water was optional.
Two 50 litre high purity nitrogen cylinders were purchased from a well-qualified supplier of specialty gases. The listed components were expected to be present in the pure nitrogen at the target levels as a result of the purification of the nitrogen. From the start of this comparison it was clear that the comparison may not lead to reference values for the constituents analysed.
The results indicate that analyses of high purity gases are often limited by the limits of detection of analytical equipment used. The reports of the participating laboratories also indicate that there is no agreed method of determination of the uncertainty on a detection Limit value. The results provide useful information on the Performance of participants. For all analysed components there is reasonable agreement in results for LNE, VSL, Metas and NPL.
For BAM only the Argon result is in agreement.
Currently research in chemical manufacturing moves towards flexible plug-and-play approaches focusing on modular plants, capable of producing small scales ondemand with short down-times between individual campaigns. This approach allows for efficient use of hardware, a faster optimization of the process conditions, and thus, an accelerated introduction of new products to the market. Driven mostly by the search for chemical syntheses under biocompatible conditions, so-called “click” chemistry rapidly became a growing field of research. The resulting simple one-pot reactions are so far only scarcely accompanied by an adequate optimization via comparably straightforward and robust analysis techniques. Here we report on a fast and reliable calibration-free online high field NMR monitoring approach for technical mixtures. It combines a versatile fluidic system, continuous-flow measurement with a time interval of 20 s per spectrum, and a robust, automated algorithm to interpret the obtained data. All spectra were acquired using a 500 MHz NMR spectrometer (Varian) with a dual band flow probe having a 1/16 inch polymer tubing working as a flow cell. Single scan 1H spectra were recorded with an acquisition time of 5 s, relaxation delay of 15 s. As a proof-of-concept, the thiol-ene coupling between N-boc cysteine methyl ester and allyl alcohol was conducted in non-deuterated solvents while its time-resolved behaviour was characterised with step tracer experiments Through the application of spectral modeling the signal area for each reactant can be deconvoluted in the online spectra and thus converted to the respective concentrations or molar ratios. The signals which were suitable for direct integration were used herein for comparison purposes of both methods.
Chemical and pharmaceutical companies have to find new paths to survive successfully in a changing environment, while also finding more flexible ways of product and process development to bring their products to market more quickly – especially high-quality high-end products like fine chemicals or pharmaceuticals. The potential of digital technologies belongs to these.
A current approach uses flexible and modular chemical production units, which can produce different high-quality products using multi-purpose equipment with short downtimes between campaigns and reduce the time to market of new products. At the same time, we need to move towards knowledge-based production that takes into account all essential equipment, process and control data from plants and laboratories and makes valuable expertise available and transferable. The potential of data from production together with its contextual information is often not yet consistently used today for a comprehensive understanding of production.
By giving examples this paper outlines a possible more holistic approach to digitalisation and the use of machine-based methods in the production of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals through the introduction of integrated and networked systems and processes.
Die quantitative NMR-Spektroskopie (qNMR) gewinnt in den letzten Jahren immer mehr an Bedeutung, speziell hinsichtlich der Anwendung auf komplexe Fragestellungen der analytischen Chemie. Ein großer Vorteil dieser Methode ist die Möglichkeit der Relativquantifizierung durch das „Zählen von Kernspins" in der Probe. Unter der Voraussetzung eines korrekt ausgeführten NMR-Experiments ist so der direkte Vergleich von Signalflächen im Spektrum möglich, ohne dass zuvor zwingend eine Kalibrierung notwendig ist.
This key comparison aims to assess the capabilities of the participants to determine the amount-of-substance fraction oxygen in nitrogen. The GAWG has classified this as a track B comparison, due to the unexpected 50 μmol/mol argon mole fraction content of the transfer standards, which effects the achievable performance of some measurement techniques such a GC-TCD. The separation of oxygen and argon is challenging, and not all systems in use are equally well designed for it. As this analytical challenge due to a substantial fraction of argon in the transfer standards became a reality, the Gas Analysis Working Group (GAWG) decided to qualify this key comparison as a regular key comparison and not as a core comparison, which may be used to support calibration and measurement capabilities (CMCs) for oxygen in nitrogen, or for oxygen in nitrogen mixtures containing argon only (see also the section on support to CMCs).
The prerequisites for a successful energy transition and the economic use of hydrogen as a clean green energy carrier and for H2 readiness are a rapid market ramp-up and the establishment of the required value chains. Reliable quality and safety standards for innovative technologies are the prerequisite for ensuring supply security, for environmental compatibility and sustainable climate protection, for building trust in these technologies and thus enable product and process innovations.
With the Competence Centre "H2Safety@BAM", BAM is creating the safety-related prere-quisites for the successful implementation of hydrogen technologies at national as well as European level. BAM uses decades of experience in dealing with hydrogen technologies to develop the necessary quality and safety standards.
The presentation will draw a bow from the typical basic tasks of BAM in the field of competence "Sensors, analytics and certified reference materials", such as maintenance and dissemination of the national gas composition standards for calorific value determination as Designated Institute for Metrology in Chemistry within the framework of the Metre Convention, to the further development of measurement and sensor technology for these tasks. For the certification of reference materials, a mostly slow and time-consuming but solid reference analysis is common. With hydrogen and its special properties, completely new requirements are added. In addition, fast and simple online analysis is required for process control, for example to register quality changes, e.g., during load changes or refuelling processes.
CCQM-K118 was an international key comparison on natural gas composition with two types of gases, i.e., a low calorific hydrogen-enriched natural gas and a high calorific LNG type of gas. There were 14 participating laboratories. The traveling standards (i.e., 14 mixtures each) were obtained from an external source and checked for homogeneity and stability before and after the participants' measurements at the two coordinating laboratories. The data evaluation was performed using a consensus value and a laboratory effect model. The results of the participants were benchmarked against a key comparison reference value computed from the largest consistent subset (LCS) of the submitted results, adjusted for the differences between the travelling standards. For the first time in a key comparison in gas analysis, the model included a term to account for excess variability in the LCS. Most of the participants reported one or a few (slightly) discrepant results. Partly this is due to the heterogeneity and heteroscedasticity of the datasets. In all, the results in this key comparison demonstrate the good comparability of the national measurement standards for natural gas composition maintained by the participating NMIs.
