Analysis during Production

The very special thing about post-
dispersive NIR and also Raman is that sample taking is not a must.


Process analysis:

We analyze above and across the full  breadth of a conveyor. This is a huge advantage with inhomogeneous products where sample taking is often the largest challenge.
 

It is likewise possible to induce a

probe into a pipeline. We have done that for instance analyzing biomass

in a biogas plant, and when

analyzing milk powder after fluid bed/spray tower. Even in a heated reactor producing synthetic rubber.
 

Raman as well as post-dispersive NIR
can measure product through glass or plastic, which is not too dark.

Our Raman measures for instance

Urea through the plastic manifold of a dialysis machine.

Our post-dispersive NIR has

measured the growth of TB

through the flask it is growing in.

No changes in the production

and quality directly

in the product stream.

But also through glass has shown successful results.



 

At-Line

HACCP points can be analyzed
directly at line – for instance using
a portable instrument.
