Data Analytic and Spectral
Analyzer
Bridging the Gap with On-line Analytics
 On-line Decision Support for Operations Personnel
– Product quality predictions
– Early process fault detection
 Embedded On-line Analytics brings quality information, fault
detection, and abnormal situation knowledge to the operator –
bridging the gap between quality and control.
 The PAT Guidelines issued by the FDA emphasized the use of
multivariate analytics as a means of reducing cost, improving
product quality in the pharmaceutical industry.
 On-line Data Analytics is targeted for DeltaV v12.

3 Step Monitoring Procedure
1. If either Fault Detection plot
exceeds or approaches the upper
control limit of 1.0, click on that
point in the trend and
-> Select the Parameter in the
lower corner of the screen that
contributed to the fault
2. Evaluate the parameter trends
from process operation standpoint
-> take corrective action if
necessary
3. Inspect impact of fault on quality
prediction plot to find out how
quality may be affected
Note: Use Up arrow to return to the
Analytics Overview.
If a fault is indicted in the analytics overview screen, then selecting the
batch number will bring up the Fault Detection view.

Example – Low Hot Oil Flow Rate
 When the hot oil
valve is opened,
the flow rate is
much lower
than normal
 The lower flow
rate impacts the
time needed for
the mixer to
reach target
temperature –
extending batch
time
Example – Low Hot Oil Flow Rate
 Fault shows up in
Indicator 2 deviating
above 1.
 To find the cause of
the fault, select the
point of maximum
deviation and then
choose the
Contribution Tab or
select the
parameters that
contribute most to
the fault - shown in
the lower corner of
the screen.
Example – Low Hot Oil Flow Rate
 The trend
confirms that the
media flow rate
is ~ 2 liters/sec
which is much
lower than the
normal flow rate
of 4
liters/second.
Example – Low Hot Oil Flow Rate
 The
prediction
plot
confirms
that the low
oil flow rate
has no
impact on
the
predicted
product
density
Prediction of Product Density
 For the Saline
process, the
prediction of
product density
has proven to be
very accurate
even though
variations in the
salt bin level are
a major source of
variation in the
processing
conditions.

 Coating of the
sensor may
introduce a bias
into the pH
measurement -
resulting in a shift
of the pH
maintained in the
reactor.
 May impact cell

product formation

Example – pH Sensor Drift
 Fault shows up
as an explained
and unexplained
change –
deviation above
1.
 To find the cause
of the fault, select
the point of
maximum
deviation and
then choose the
Contribution Tab.
Example – pH Sensor Drift
 Drift in the pH
measurement
is reflected in
the pH
measurement
and controller
output.
 A trend of the
pH and pH
controller
output can be
obtained by
clicking on
media flow
parameter in
the
contribution
screen.
Example – pH Sensor Drift
 Impact of the
change in
measurement
bias is show as
an immediate
change in pH.
Example – pH Sensor Drift
 Longer term the
faulty pH
measurement is
reflected in an
abnormally low
reagent addition
being used to
maintain the
indicated pH.

A workshop is being offered at Emerson Exchange on
data analytics and field trail at Lubrizol, Rouen. The
schedule for this workshop is:
08-167 Batch Process Analytics (PA) – An In
Depth Update
– Tuesday, Room 206B, 10:00 AM
– Thursday, Room 206A, 11:00 AM
Spectral Analyzers
 Spectral analyzers may be used at critical
points throughout the process.
– Pharmaceutical - inspection of feedstock,
blend uniformity, granulation, drying and
coating and particle size analysis. Online
QA/QC tool for production.
– Chemical - acid value, adhesive content,
cure, melt index, and polymer processes -
reaction monitoring
– Refinery, petrochemical - fuel production
monitoring
 A wide variety of commercial on-line, at-line,
and laboratory spectral analyzers are
available.
 Calibration of an NIR analyzer is based on
use of spectral data to develop principal
component analysis(PCA) and projection of
latent structures (PLS) models.
Example: NIR Analyzers
 Careful development of a set of
calibration samples and their use
in PCA/PLS model development
is the basis for near-infrared
analytical methods.
 For purposes of analysis, the
spectral data for a sample
should be saved and accessed
as one set of data e.g. an
array.
 3-D plotting of spectral data can
be helpful in screening samples
and in analyzing on-line use of
spectral data.
