Low field NMR spectroscopy for sustainable and flexible production of high quality chemical products
(2017)
The main development goal of process industries is to advance the continuous production of high-value products that meet high quality demands in flexible intensified continuous plants by introducing novel online sensing equipment and closed-loop control (CONSENS – integrated control and sensing- is funded from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme). Therefore, we present the field integration of a benchtop NMR instrument into a modular production environment, focussing on suitable equipment for operation in hazardous areas with risk of explosive atmospheres.
We investigated a pharmaceutical reaction step in order to describe challenges for the experimental design, the evaluation of complex NMR spectra and demonstrate automated data analysis tools.
Process monitoring of an intensified continuous production unit with compact NMR spectroscopy
(2017)
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.

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.
Process monitoring of an intensified continuous production unit with compact NMR spectroscopy
(2016)
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 relatively inexpensive analyzers, which feature advantages like low cost, 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, sufficient 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. Recently, promising benchtop NMR instruments with acceptable performance came to market and process integrated sensors developed on basis of such laboratory instruments are on their way.
Intensified continuous processes are in focus of current research. Compared to traditional batch processes, these are giving admittance to new and difficult to produce compounds, leading to better product uniformity, and dras-tically reducing the consumption of raw materials and energy. 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. Typically, such plants have smaller scale than big size facilities for production of basic chemicals but are still capable to produce kilograms to tons of specialty products each day. Such flexible (modular) plants can be provided in the size of 20 ft freight containers and represent a promising approach by their ability of easy transfer to production sites as well as the possibility of increasing production capacity by a simple numbering-up-approach.
However, full automation is a prerequisite to realize such benefits of intensified continuous production. In continu-ous flow processes steady automated measurements and tight closed-loop control of the product quality are mandatory. If these are not available, there is a huge risk of producing large amounts of out-of-spec (OOS) prod-ucts. This is addressed in the European Union’s Research Project CONSENS (Integrated Control and Sensing) by development and integration of smart sensor modules for process monitoring and control within such modular plant setups.
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.
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.
A robust and sensitive method for the detection of the explosive trinitrotoluene (TNT) was developed. The detection limit was determined to be around 0.5 µg/L. The fast signal response of less than 1 minute shows that this approach is suitable for security and other time-critcal applications. In addition, the very low cross-reactivity highly reduces the number of false-positives in relation to competing techniques, including sniffer dogs. Due to the multianalyte ability of the SAW system, several explosives might be detected in parallel.
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.
