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.
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.
The successful shift to NDE 4.0 will not only require developing and embracing new technologies associated with the fourth industrial revolution or becoming an integral part of the overall Industry 4.0, but also developing and adopting new ways of working. It is undoubtful that people will remain in charge of the inspections. However, it is arguable if the current “procedure-following” “level I-III” paradigm can withstand the changes that come along NDE 4.0. With the increased autonomy and interconnectedness expected with NDT 4.0, the majority of traditional NDE tasks will no longer be needed. Instead, different skills, such as that of programming and adapting systems, as well as problem solving, will become vital for the inspections. Therefore, we suggest that a new paradigm is needed—one in which inspector roles and, thus, also the requirements will have to be reinvented. We expect the inspectors to be relieved from the tedious and error prone aspects of the current system and to take responsibility for increasingly complex automated systems and work in closer collaboration with other experts. Thus, we propose that the traditional inspector roles will be transformed into that of the system developer, caretaker and problem solver, each requiring a specific set of skills and assuming different responsibilities. In this talk, we will present the new roles and discuss the challenges that may arise with them.

The fourth industrial revolution (also known as “Industry 4.0”) promises to relieve people from manual and physical work by developing cyber-physical systems and smart automation and thereby achieving a more efficient, reliable and safe performance. This will change people’s work from being operators of the system into becoming strategical decision makers and flexible problem solvers. This shift will require a new division of work between people and technical systems, a new division of responsibilities and new ways of interacting with technology, which in turn will pose new demands on people. People will require different physical and cognitive capabilities, different competencies and new strategies to cope with the upcoming challenges. The focus of Industry 4.0 is therefore on designing systems with human in the centre: systems that will extend people’s capabilities, that will allow collaborative work and take advantage of performances in which either people or technology excel. This presentation will focus on the benefits of consideration of human-machine interaction in the context of industry 4.0.
