The departure from the current automation landscape to next generation automation concepts for the process industry has already begun. Smart functions of sensors simplify their use and enable plug-and-play integration, even though they may appear to be more complex at first sight. Monitoring specific information (i.e., “chemical” such as physico-chemical properties, chemical reactions, etc.) is the key to “chemical” process control. Here we introduce our smart online NMR sensor module provided in an explosion proof housing as example.
Due to NMR spectroscopy as an “absolute analytical comparison method”, independent of the matrix, it runs with extremely short set-up times in combination with “modular” spectral models. Such models can simply be built upon pure component NMR spectra within a few hours (i.e., assignment of the NMR signals to the components) instead of tedious calibrations runs. We present a range of approaches for the automated spectra analysis moving from statistical approach, (i.e., Partial Least Squares Regression) to physically motivated spectral models (i.e., Indirect Hard Modelling and Quantum Mechanical calculations).
Based on concentration measurements of reagents and products by the NMR analyzer a continuous production and direct loop process control were successfully realized for several validation runs in a modular industrial pilot plant and compared to conventional analytical methods (HPLC, near infrared spectroscopy). The NMR analyser was developed for an intensified industrial process funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (“Integrated CONtrol and SENsing”, www.consens-spire.eu).

Benchtop nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy currently develops to an important analytical tool for both quality control and process monitoring. In contrast to high resolution online NMR (HR-NMR), benchtop NMR can be operated under rough environmental conditions. A continuous re-circulating stream of reaction mixture from the reaction vessel to the NMR spectrometer enables a non-invasive, volume integrating online analyses of reactants and products. Here we investigated the esterification of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol with acetic acid to 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acetate both by 1H HR-NMR (500 MHz) and 1H and 19F MR NMR (43 MHz and 40 MHz) as a model system. The parallel online measurement was realized by splitting the flow, which allowed the adjustment of quantitative and independent flow rates, both in the benchtop NMR probe as well as in the HR-NMR probe, in ad-dition to a fast bypass line back to the reactor.
Monitoring chemical reactions is the key to chemical process control. Today, mainly optical online methods are applied. NMR spectroscopy has a high potential for direct loop process control. Compact NMR instruments based on permanent magnets are robust and inexpensive analysers, which feature advantages like low maintenance, ease of use, and cryogen-free operation. Instruments for online NMR measurements equipped with a flow-through cell, possessing a good signal-to-noise-ratio, robustness, and meeting the requirements for integration into industrial plants (i.e., explosion safety and fully automated data analysis) are currently not available off the rack.
Intensified continuous processes are in focus of current research. Flexible (modular) chemical plants can produce different products using the same equipment with short down-times between campaigns and quick introduction of new products to the market. In continuous flow processes online sensor data and tight closed-loop control of the product quality are mandatory. Otherwise there is a huge risk of producing large amounts of out-of-spec (OOS) products. This is addressed in the European Union’s Research Project CONSENS by development and integration of smart sensor modules for process monitoring and control within such modular plant setups.
The presented NMR module is provided in an explosion proof housing with a module size of 57 x 57 x 85 cm and involves a compact 43.5 MHz NMR spectrometer together with an acquisition unit and a programmable logic controller for automated data preparation (phasing, baseline correction) and evaluation. Indirect Hard Modeling (IHM) was selected for data analysis of the low-field NMR spectra. A set-up for monitoring continuous reactions in a thermostated 1/8” tubular reactor using automated syringe pumps was used to validate the IHM models by using high-field NMR spectroscopy as analytical reference method.
Monitoring chemical reactions is the key to process control. Today, mainly optical online methods are applied, which are calibration intensive. NMR spectroscopy has a high potential for direct loop process control while cutting the calibration and validation needs to an minimum and thus exhibiting short set-up times. Compact NMR instruments make NMR spectroscopy accessible in industrial and harsh environments for advanced process monitoring and control.

This is addressed within the EU’s Research Project CONSENS by the development and integration of a smart NMR module for process monitoring. The presented NMR module is provided in a mobile explosion proof housing and involves a compact spectrometer together with an acquisition unit and a programmable logic controller for automated data preparation (phasing, baseline correction), and evaluation. Such “smart sensors” provide 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. The module transforms the acquired online spectra of various technically relevant reactions to either conventional 4‒20 mA signals as well as WiFi based OPC-UA communication protocols, which enables NMR-based advanced process control and funny discussions with plant managers along with automation and safety engineers.
Die auf der NAMUR HS 2015 vorgestellte Technologie-Roadmap „Prozess-Sensoren 4.0“ zeigt die nötigen Anforderungen an Prozess-Sensoren sowie an deren Kommunikations-fähigkeiten auf. Wir berichten über den Stand der Diskussionen im Trialog zwischen Anwendern, Software- und Geräteherstellern sowie der Forschung.
Ein wichtiger Schlüssel ist die Definition einer bedarfsgerechten und einheitlichen Topologie für solche smarten Sensoren, die in einem Arbeitskreis „Smarte-Sensorik“ ohne im wechselseitigen Austausch mit Geräte- und Softwareherstellern und Forschungseinrichtungen vorangetrieben werden soll.
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.
Prozess-Sensoren 4.0 vereinfachen ihre Einbindung über Plug and Play, obwohl sie komplexer werden. Sie bieten Selbstdiagnose, Selbstkalibrierung und erleichterte Parametrierung. Über die Konnektivität ermöglichen die Prozess-Sensoren den Austausch ihrer Informationen als Cyber-physische Systeme mit anderen Prozess-Sensoren und im Netzwerk.
Der Wandel von der aktuellen Automation zum smarten Sensor ist im vollen Gange. Automatisierungstechnik und Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik (IKT) verschmelzen zunehmend. Eine Topologie für smarte Sensoren, die das Zusammenwirken mit daten- und modellbasierte Steuerungen bis hin zur Softsensorik beschreibt gibt es heute jedoch noch nicht. Wir müssen jetzt schnell die Weichen für eine smarte und sichere Kommunikationsarchitektur stellen, um zu einer störungsfreien Kommunikation aller Komponenten auf Basis eines einheitlichen Protokolls zu kommen. Unnötiges Schnickschnack ist nicht erwünscht. Wenn die Prozessindustrie dieses nicht definiert, tun es andere.
Für die weitere Entwicklung von der Ist‐Situation zu einer Industrie-4.0-Welt in der Prozessindustrie werden mehrere Szenarien diskutiert. Diese reichen vom erleichterten Abruf sensorbezogener Daten über zusätzliche Kommunikationskanäle zwischen Sensor und mobilen Endgeräten über vollständig bidirektionale Kommunikation bis hin zur Einbindung der Cloud und des Internets in virtualisierte Umgebungen.
Um zu einer störungsfreien Kommunikation aller Komponenten untereinander zu kommen, muss mindestens ein einheitliches Protokoll her, das alle sprechen und verstehen. Der derzeit greifbarste offengelegte Standard, der moderne Kommunikationsanforderungen erfüllt, ist OPC Unified Architecture (OPC-UA). Viele halten das Sortieren der Kommunikationsstandards für eines der wesentlichen Errungenschaften von Industrie 4.0.
Der Vortrag greift die Anforderungen der Technologie-Roadmap „Prozess-Sensoren 4.0“ auf und zeigt Möglichkeiten zu ihrer Realisierung am Beispiel eines Online-NMR-Analysators, der im Rahmen des EU-Projekts „CONSENS“ (www.consens-spire.eu) entwickelt wurde.
Aktuelle und zukünftige öffentliche Förderung von Industrie 4.0-Projekten sind eine gute Investition. Wegen der hohen Komplexität und Interdisziplinarität gelingt die Umsetzung nur gemeinsam zwischen Anwendern aus der Prozessindustrie, Software- und Geräteherstellern sowie Forschungsgruppen. Anwender sind gefragt, diese neue Technologie durch eine beschleunigte Validierung und Akzeptanz umzusetzen. Sie erhalten die einzigartige Chance, ihre Prozesse und Anlagen wettbewerbsfähig zu halten. Kooperativ betriebenen F&E-Zentren und gemeinsam anerkannten Applikationslaboren kommt dafür eine hohe Bedeutung zu.
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.
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.
