- 32 - Pioneering the future of Process Analysis
"Sensors are great, but they have their limitations" - that’s where analysers come in!
In this episode, Paul Hamilton from Metrohm discusses simple and innovative ways for Process Engineers to perform complex chemical analysis. Metrohm is best known for producing analytical laboratory hardware and software, but Paul explains how the process analysis side of the business brings all of the typical laboratory analysis techniques and integrates them into the process plant, producing lab-quality data in the plant, fully automated.
Compared to some other countries, the UK is behind when it comes to the process industry, but there is a shift happening, and now is the time to innovate and automate. There are countless ways in which a process can be automated, and most people don’t even realise it! A lot of companies are reliant on intermittent data from a lab, and that creates a bottleneck. Whereas automating your process provides real-time detailed data, which allows you to be proactive and make fast and accurate decisions; this, in turn, eliminates downtime, reduces costs, and raises efficiency.
Paul discusses real-life examples of companies and industries that have embraced automating their process and the results they have seen... often automation is much simpler than people think! Paul talks about how you can retrofit an analyser into your process, and how surprisingly easy that can be.
Lastly, Paul talks over what’s next for the process industry... spectroscopy?...

Thu, 28 Mar 2024 - 26min - 30 - How interface measurement could transform your business
In this episode of the PII Podcast, we delve into the world of interface level measurement, concentrating on those difficult multiphase applications with dynamic emulsion layers. The key to optimising performance in these situations is solving the emulsion factor – a hurdle that has long stood in the way of accurate and economical level detection. Traditionally, no single technology has been able to economically measure the total hydrocarbon level, the top of the emulsion (where water mixes into oil), and the bottom of the emulsion layer, (where oil mixes into water). This multiphase scenario has challenged many traditional technologies, each of which faces its own limitations. Despite the considerable efforts from instrumentation manufacturers, a truly cost-effective solution has been elusive... Until now. Today we are exploring TDR-based technology and how this is changing the game. Learn the science behind it, and what it means for the future of industries reliant on precise level measurement. To unpack all of that and give us his expert insights,we are joined by Bob Botwinski - a Senior Global Product Manager for AMETEK LMS.

Mon, 27 Sep 2021 - 40min - 18 - How breweries can become more digital
In our latest Podcast Dave speaks with GEA’s Hassan Yaszdi, Senior Product Manager Digital Service, and Dr. Mark Schneeberger, Head of Development of GEA’s Beer and Alcoholic Beverage Business and brewmaster, about how GEA is paving the way for breweries (and possibly other industries, too) to become more digital with their game-changing software
Over the next five to ten years, more and more new Industry 4.0 technologies will transform the production landscape of many industries - from connectivity to advanced analytics, robotics and automation. In the future, breweries will also be able to go paperless, monitor processes seamlessly, be notified of adjustments at any stage of the brewing process, and ultimately make changes with minimal human intervention. Such advanced monitoring software is now real - and more than that, it's on its way to becoming an auto-optimisation programme.
The ability to optimise a production unit in the future will depend on accurate, insightful and actionable data. However, many breweries lack the granular performance data necessary to take full advantage of digitisation and automation. This is where GEA's brewing and service experts come in, and they have now formulated an answer together with customers: GEA InsightPartner Brewery.
GEA InsightPartner Brewery is the first step, actually being in release phase 2 (for a whole brewhouse) at a customers site (Störtebeker Brewery in Germany). Future releases incorporating further process steps are in preparation. And best news: The GEA OptiPartner Brewery (which is the big brother of GEA InsightPartner) is no dream anymore, but already in the testing phase at a customer site.
As you will learn, whilst GEA InsightPartner gives brewers the knowledge to track and respond to their processes, GEA OptiPartner Brewery automatically handles end-to-end process optimisation for each brew, it really is a truly insightful listen….
