In the years up to 2012 the demand for more difficult measurements
increased Matched by growth in new Process
Analytical technologies...• nanotech TDL lab-on-a-chip
microGC NMR spectrometer-on-chip eNose CRD MS-on-a-chip
… but the old technologies remained...• GC MS FT-(N)IR
CEMS water
… and it became impossible for one person to provide high level support such a wide range of techniques

Computing developments which we used...
PDAs became a standard tool• wireless connectivity• human-machine interface for many devices• used with GPS to pinpoint equipment
Wearable PCs became common
• Heads-up displays and data entry improved– voice entry of data– voice recognition “action” commands
The web ruled...• browser access to everything from everywhere
Security became better and easier• retinal recognition

Predictive maintenance replaces planned
• Intelligent diagnostics watch analyser systems...all the time...
• ‘I need help’ flags are sent in real time to wireless Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs)
………………
A typical troubleshooting task for a technician starts when her PDA buzzes and indicates a possible problem...

Please help me...
A smart application in an analyser system has detected something strange - relevant information is sent out...
The technician taps down for more info...

Background data and recent history is sent
Key sensor data have been monitored and unusual conditions have been detected...
The technician taps down for more details...

Recent history is shown graphically
The technician starts to think about the cause of the problem…
…and sees the problem…clearly...
A pinched valve is quickly discovered and the problem resolved…pronto!

Appl-I: Smart applications
Functions are part of a shell which is used by all analyser vendors…(much like Excel)
•monitoring of key parameters• flow, pressure, temperature…as well as analytical
•self-validation, both continuous and periodic
•intelligent statistical tools identify abnormal events
•users notified when trouble is suspected
•data presented in a user-friendly way

Key points: Technician level
Technicians in plants retain the prime responsibility of maintaining analyser systems
Human knowledge, skills, thought processes are needed more than ever
Logic and intelligence in machines help technicians to use their human skills better• real-time health checks of systems
– focus on predictive maintenance• data presentation helps troubleshooting• …and bureaucracy is unburdened
![Page 16: A REVIEW OF PROCESS ANALYTICS IN THE YEAR 2012 (selected highlights from IFPAC 2002 presentation) Rob Dubois Jeff Gunnell Dow Chemical ExxonMobil Chemical](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f175503460f94c2df69/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Key points: Engineer level
Highly complex analyser technologies abound
Sites are spread all around the globe
Technical support and troubleshooting is a team game• collaboration tools facilitate virtual teams• support round the clock, round the globe• changes in
– responsibility– behaviour– relationships

This is life in 2012 - how did we get here?
NeSSI came through:• modular sample systems• integrated with analysers sensors• in smart, field mounted units
ConnI • delivered an architecture which linked
everything together
Appl-I• provided a common application shell
…and collaboration delivered benefits for all
