Climate change and related energy policies, exacerbated by unforeseen geopolitical developments, pose new challenges for gas analytics, such as the use of hydrogen, hydrogen-containing alternative gaseous fuels (NH3, etc.), the use of alternative methane-based energy gases (LNG, LPG, etc.) or decarbonisation via CCSU. In all topics, the quality, i.e. the actual chemical composition of the gases, naturally plays a decisive role. BAM is meeting this strategic importance with the further development of hydrogen analytics and is continuing to develop the methods used in order to support the German economy and research landscape with traceability, reference materials and analytical procedures as quickly as possible.
Mass spectrometry plays an important role for trace analysis in hydrogen matrix. The presentation shows first experimental results from the application of PTR-TOF-MS (Proton Transfer Reaction Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry).
Unternehmen der Prozessindustrie müssen neue Wege finden, um in einem sich wandelnden Umfeld erfolgreich zu überleben, und gleichzeitig flexiblere Wege der Produkt- und Prozessentwicklung finden, um ihre Produkte schneller auf den Markt zu bringen – insbesondere hochwertige, hochwertige Produkte wie Feinchemikalien oder Arzneimittel. Dies wird zukünftig durch Veränderungen in den Wertschöpfungsketten entlang einer potenziellen Kreislaufwirtschaft erschwert.
Anhand von Beispielen wird in diesem Vortrag ein möglicher ganzheitlicher Ansatz zur Digitalisierung und zum Einsatz maschineller Verfahren in der Produktion von Spezialchemikalien durch die Einführung integrierter und vernetzter Systeme und Prozesse skizziert.
Es wird auch auf die aktuelle Technologie-Roadmap „Prozess-Sensoren 2027+“ eingegangen, die Ende 2021 erschienen ist. Im Zentrum dieser Roadmaps stehen Sensoren zur Erfassung von physikalischen und chemischen Messgrößen mittels spezifischer und unspezifischer Messverfahren, die zur Steuerung und dem besseren Verständnis von Prozessen dienen. Die Roadmap fasst die gemeinsame Technologie- und Marktsicht von Anwendern, Herstellern und Forschungs¬einrichtungen im Bereich Prozess-Sensorik in der verfahrenstechnischen Industrie zusammen. Digitalisierung und Nachhaltigkeit sind übergreifende Kernthemen der künftigen Entwicklung.
Integrierte und vernetzte Systeme und Prozesse – Eine Perspektive für die smarte Laborinfrastruktur
(2022)
Chemie- und Pharmaunternehmen müssen neue Wege gehen, um in einem sich wandelnden Umfeld erfolgreich zu überleben, und gleichzeitig flexiblere Wege der Produkt- und Prozessentwicklung finden, um ihre Produkte schneller auf den Markt zu bringen - vor allem hochwertige High-End-Produkte wie Feinchemikalien oder Arzneimittel. Dazu gehört auch das Potenzial der digitalen Technologien, um ein umfassenderes Wissensmanagement zu ermöglichen.
Eine wichtige Wissensquelle sind analytische Labors, die Unternehmensweit aktiv sind – von F&E bis zur Produktion. Die ganzheitliche Einbindung von analytischen Labors und ein unternehmensweites Daten- und Wissensmanagement sind wichtige Bausteine zur Integration und Vernetzung aller Systeme und Prozesse. Das Potenzial von Daten aus der Produktion mit ihren Kontextinformationen wird heute oft noch nicht konsequent für ein umfassendes Verständnis der Produktion genutzt.
Dieser Beitrag skizziert anhand von Beispielen einen möglichen ganzheitlicheren Ansatz zur Digitalisierung und zum Einsatz maschineller Verfahren in der Produktion von Spezialchemikalien und Pharmazeutika durch die Einführung integrierter und vernetzter Systeme und Prozesse.
Compact NMR Spectroscopy in the field: A Versatile PAT Tool for Production of Specialty Chemicals
(2022)
Companies of chemical industry find themselves more often in a rapidly changing environment, e.g., due to variability of raw material quality or energy costs and efficiency. Process optimization and new process concepts become more and more important. For example, flexible and modular chemical plants can produce various high-quality products using multi-purpose equipment with short downtimes between campaigns and reduce time to market for new products. Intensified continuous production plants allow for difficult to produce compounds like exothermic reactions with high heat dissipation.
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. A commercially available benchtop NMR spectrometer was integrated to the full requirements of an automated chemical production environment such as explosion safety, field communication, and robust evaluation of sensor data. Field studies in modular and conventional production plant setups show promising results gaining process knowledge for further optimization. NMR appeared as preeminent online analytical method and allow using a modular data analysis approach, which can even serve as reliable reference method for further calibration-dependent PAT applications (e.g., NIR spectroscopy). Based on experiences from these field studies an improved analyzer enclosure setup was developed and built, including the option of a secondary method besides NMR spectroscopy. Integrated control systems allow for a flexible implementation based on the available automation infrastructure at the chemical plant or pilot plant setup. In the future, fully integrated and intelligently interconnecting “smart” PAT systems and processes have the potential speed up the setup of production equipment for chemicals and pharmaceuticals and therefore help to reduce the time-to-market.
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. 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.
NMR spectroscopy appeared as excellent online analytical tool and allowed a modular data analysis approach, which even served as reliable reference method for further Process Analytical Technology (PAT) applications. Using the available datasets, a second data analysis approach based on artificial neural networks (ANN) was evaluated. Therefore, amount of data was augmented to be sufficient for training. The results show comparable performance, while improving the calculation time tremendously. In future, such fully integrated and interconnecting “smart” systems and processes can increase the efficiency of the production of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
At the end of the article, ideas for solutions are discussed in order to speed up the implementation of new special products from the point of view of process analytics and to network the existing process chains more closely.

Modular production involving benchtop NMR Current Application Examples Driven by Digitalization
(2022)
The demand for increasing product diversity in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry calls for new production processes that enable greater flexibility. Therefore, plants are needed which can be adapted to new processes in a fast manner and be scaled up and down easily to volatile market demands. Modular production techniques in combination with advanced process analytical technology (PAT) are considered as a promising solution able to fulfil these requirements.
The success and acceptance of modular concepts in both new and existing plants is dependent of its reliability, easy applicability, and standardization. In recent past, enormous efforts were made to overcome existing barriers in a superordinate level, e.g. DEXPI, ENPRO, or MTP naming just a few. Here, we’d like to present a few, more hands-on, application examples which are shown in Figure 1 aiming to increase process flexibility and applicability.

Chemical and pharmaceutical companies need to find new ways to survive successfully in a changing environment, while finding more flexible ways of product and process development to bring their products to market faster - especially high-value, high-end products such as fine chemicals or pharmaceuticals. This is complicated by changes in value chains along a potential circular economy.
One current approach is flexible and modular chemical production units that use multi-purpose equipment to produce various high-value products with short downtimes between campaigns and can shorten time-to-market for new products. Online NMR spectroscopy will play an important role for plant automation and quality control, as the method brings very high linearity, matrix independence and thus works almost calibration-free. Moreover, these properties ideally enable automated and machine-aided data analysis for the above-mentioned applications.
Using examples, this presentation will outline a possible more holistic approach to digitalization and the use of machine-based processes in the production of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals through the introduction of integrated and networked systems and processes.
