Optimize Your Process Control of Olefin Isomerization

Optimizing olefin isomerization typically involves time-consuming testing of both intermediate and final product. The unavoidable delay between sampling and process changes using traditional chromatographic methods fails to eliminate the need for post-production adjustments and can even result in batch loss.

In this webinar, Tiffany Adkins, Quality Manager at Aurorium, will explain how fast, specific Raman spectroscopy improved her manufacturing quality and reduced product loss. She will discuss her phased implementation approach to Raman and lessons learned, the simplicity of quantitative method development and future use cases for the technique.

Elena Hagemann, Metrohm USA Spectroscopy Product Specialist, will give an overview of Raman spectroscopy and explain how the fundamentals of this technique make it well-suited for specialty chemicals and formulated products.

Key Learning Objectives:

• Discover how Raman spectroscopy gives quicker results than most other analytical technologies, leading to better response time to process variations
• Gain understanding on how Raman spectroscopy can be utilized to quantify the isomerization content in olefins via the variation in present double bonds
• Learn about overcoming implementation challenges in Raman Spectroscopy by showcasing different challenges, the approach to find solutions and the key learnings that will ease the implementation of Raman spectroscopy

Who Should Attend:

• Those in the chemical industry, both specialty chemical and final product manufacturers looking to increase production quality and efficiency
• Production and QA managers of all industries seeking solutions to get actionable data faster
• Product development chemists seeking to design products for quality and manufacturability
• Researchers looking for Raman measurement solutions for a variety of materials
• Process development engineers and scientists looking for upstream/development solutions that can scale with production
