Raw Material ID Through Non-Transparent Packaging Using Agilent Vaya Handheld Raman
Switching to a portable Raman device that can read through both transparent and non-transparent containers will help you move towards “zero waste”, drastically reduce sampling and associated costs, and increase productivity.
The Agilent Raman Raw Material Identity Verification System (Vaya) enables zero-waste workflows with its new unique spatial shift Raman spectroscopy (SORS) technology, enabling raw materials to be verified through opaque and transparent containers. This unique innovation eliminates the need to sample most raw materials, significantly reducing unnecessary waste of time, personnel, and materials. Additionally, Vaya has received the Accountability, Consistency and Transparency (ACT) label certification from My Green Lab, highlighting the development and life cycle of environmentally friendly products.
Key learning objectives:
- Discover how we can identify materials through transparent and non-transparent packaging.
- Learn how to build a robust method to avoid false positive identifications.
- See how you can drastically reduce your consumables.
