Improvement in deep process understanding is a mandatory prerequisite for the application of modern concepts like Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or “Industrie 4.0”. The direct hyphenation with online methods of process analytical technology (PAT) allows profound insights into the actual reactions within chemical and pharmaceutical production steps and provides necessary information for associated advanced control strategies.
While the industrial application of online Raman spectroscopy has already been successfully demonstrated, low-field NMR spectroscopy is not yet adequately developed as a robust online method for use in process industry. The high information content combined with the low calibration effort makes NMR spectroscopy a highly promising method for modern process automation with a high flexibility due to short set-up times and novel calibration concepts. This is a major advantage compared to other analytical methods, especially regarding multi-purpose plant strategies, as well as processes suffering from fluctuating quality of raw materials.
The work presented here focusses on the heterogeneous catalyzed hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol, as a step of the synthesis of industrially important solvent tetrahydrofuran. This reaction is proceeding via an intermediate product and suffers from competitive reaction paths. In this application, online NMR and Raman spectroscopy were combined with data from classical process sensors, e.g., pressure, temperature, and flow transducers in a highly automated setup for the development of innovative control concepts.
Quantitative Online NMR spectroscopy as a direct ratio method of analysis represents a perfect reference for calibration of further process analytical techniques, e.g., optical spectroscopic techniques. In this work we present a combined approach including Online NMR and Raman spectroscopy on a laboratory setup for development of suitable models for process monitoring. Therefore we investigated the absorption process of carbon dioxide in solutions of monoethanolamine, as well as the homogeneous catalyzed hydroformylation reaction of 1-dodecene taking place in an emulsion stabilized by a technical surfactant. The models for Raman spectroscopy were tested and approved during several days of operational studies of miniplant-scale setups for both mentioned applications.
