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, which was developed for an intensified industrial process funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (www.consens-spire.eu). 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.
The departure from the current automation landscape to next generation automation concepts for the process industry has already begun. Smart functions of sensors will simplify their use and enable plug-and-play integration, even though they may appear to be more complex at first sight. This is particularly important for concepts like self-diagnostics, self-calibration and self-configuration/parameterization. Intelligent field devices as parts of digital field networks, Inter-net Protocol (IP)-based connectivity and web interfaces, as well as advanced data analysis soft-ware will provide the basis for future projects like Industrie 4.0, Factory of the Future, or Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The talk summarizes the currently discussed general requirements for process sensors 4.0 and introduces an online NMR sensor as example. This sensor was developed to provide integrated control and sensing for sustainable operation of flexible intensified processes (CONSENS) funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
Smart functions of sensors simplify their use and enable plug-and-play, even though they are more complex. This is particularly important for, self-diagnostics, self-calibration and self-configuration/parameterization. Intelligent field devices, digital field networks, Internet Protocol (IP)-enabled connectivity and web services, historians, and advanced data analysis software are providing the basis for the future project “Industrie 4.0” and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
Important smart features include connectivity and communication ability according to a unified protocol (OPC-UA currently most widely discussed), maintenance and operating functions, traceability and compliance, virtual description to support a continuous engineering, and well as interaction capabilities between sensors. This is a prerequisite for the realization of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) within these future automation concepts for the process industry. Therefore, smart process sensors enable new business models for users, device manufacturers, and service providers.
The departure from current automation to smart sensor has already begun. Further development is based on the actual situation over several steps. Possible perspectives will be via additional communication channels to mobile devices, bidirectional communication, integration of the cloud and virtualization. The integration of virtual runtime environments can provide a more flexible topology for process control environments.
The talk summarizes the currently discussed requirements to process sensors 4.0 and introduces an online NMR sensor as an example, which was developed in the EU project CONSENS.
The talk reflects how PAT could be applied in future developments ofpharma manufacturing. It shows the benefits, increase quality, size and increasing speed of production with significant reduction of quality costs, which are possible. Using Smart Sensors and model based data evaluation methods are the key to reduce set-up times and costs. Industry 4.0 will help shape the Pharmaceutical industry of tomorrow. This is demonstrated by an example using modular production units for Continuous Manufacturing. The development of a smart online NMR analyser is shown.
