We implement chemical analysis where decisions must be made in real time.
In process industries, laboratory control alone often comes „after the fact” — because obtaining a result requires sampling, logistics, and analysis, while the process has already moved forward. That is why we implement process analytics, which provides continuous and immediate data under real production conditions (temperature, pressure, 24/7 operation).
Industries
Tailored for various industry branches
Cosmetics and Detergents
Real-time inline monitoring helps respond faster to adverse changes and fluctuations in the production process, reduce raw material losses, and maintain stable production quality.
Petrochemicals
Petrochemical plants require continuous monitoring of process stream compositions to detect deviations faster and stabilize product quality. Spectrally supports inline monitoring, reduces raw material losses, and enables more efficient operational decisions.
Fertilizers
Fertilizer production requires stable control of key component concentrations and rapid detection of process deviations. Spectrally supports inline monitoring, improves batch repeatability, and relieves the quality control laboratory.
Chemicals and Polymers
Chemical and polymer production requires precise control of composition, reaction progress, and batch quality at every process stage. Spectrally supports inline monitoring, faster deviation detection, and stabilization of production parameters.
Environmental Monitoring
Environmental monitoring requires fast and reliable identification of contaminants in water, soil, and air to respond earlier to deviations and limit environmental risk. Spectrally supports inline and field measurements, helping shorten analysis time, increase inspection frequency, and streamline operational decisions.
Water and Wastewater
Water and wastewater management requires continuous control of medium quality and rapid identification of composition changes to stabilize treatment and purification processes. Spectrally supports inline monitoring, reduces delays associated with laboratory analysis, and helps respond faster to process deviations.
Why these specific industries?
Because time, efficiency, and process control matter.
In practice, plants gain:
- Real-time results – No waiting for the laboratory, so technological and quality decisions are made on the fly.
- Frequent or continuous measurement. – Instead of a single sample, they see the process trend, detect deviations and incidents faster.
- Operationally clear result. – In the form of an indicator, alarm, or PASS/FAIL, ready for use by production and quality.

Selected Case Studies
Case study 1
Water and wastewater: hydrocarbon detection.
Challenge.
Unstable production causing variable reagent concentrations in the final product. Additionally, long waiting times for laboratory results prevented tight control of free reagent concentrations.
Results

Continuous monitoring of petroleum hydrocarbons in wastewater
At a municipal water and wastewater utility operator, we launched one of the first Polish deployments of the Spectrally™ water analyzer. The system detects petroleum hydrocarbons directly in the flow, including intermittent, illegal discharges that random laboratory sampling misses.
Urea concentration control in AdBlue/DEF (ISO 22241, 32.5%)
AdBlue must meet a concentration of 32.5% ±0.7% per ISO 22241; deviation destroys the SCR system. We demonstrate how to verify urea concentration and solution homogeneity inline, during filling, without waiting for laboratory results.
Total nitrogen in fertilizer granules: in-line measurement without sample preparation
In a feasibility study at a fertilizer manufacturer, we demonstrated that Raman spectroscopy with a 1064 nm laser measures total nitrogen directly on the granulate, without sample preparation, with correlation to the laboratory method.
Check Spectrally™ in your process
If you are considering inline analysis, the most important question is: will this method work under your conditions and deliver a result on which a decision can be based? Therefore, we start with a practical verification — using your samples and in the context of a specific goal (quality stabilization, batch shortening, contamination detection, loss reduction). In a short time, you get a clear answer:, whether measurement is possible, with what accuracy, where to install the measurement point. and how to translate data into real operational actions (trend, alarm, PASS/FAIL decision).
What you get as part of the application verification.
- Quick feasibility assessment.: whether the Spectrally™ system is suitable for measuring your process.
- Measurement point recommendation.: where to measure so the result is stable and useful for the process (in-line / at-line / mobile).
- Preliminary model and result format.: trend, alarms, thresholds, PASS/FAIL — i.e., a result understandable for production and the quality department.
- Step-by-step implementation plan.: installation scope, integrations, commissioning, and team workflow after startup.
- Return on investment estimation.: which sources of losses and risks we address and how quickly this investment can pay back.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you implement solutions only in the industries listed on the website?
No. The list shows areas where we have the most implementation experience, but process analytics can also be adapted to other applications — the decision is made after a brief discussion and sample verification.
How to check if the technology will work in my process?
We start by identifying critical points (what and where to measure), and then conduct a short feasibility study using samples from your process. This way, you immediately know whether we can achieve the required accuracy and what the boundary conditions are.
In which applications do companies gain the most?
The greatest impact is where laboratory results are „after the fact” and do not allow process control, and deviations generate raw material losses, complaints, or downtime risks. In such cases, frequent or continuous measurement enables faster response and quality stabilization.
Does the solution operate in 24/7 mode and under harsh conditions?
Yes — process implementations are designed for continuous operation and real installation conditions (temperature, pressure, working environment). Configuration selection depends on the medium and measurement location.
Is this a solution for production or more for the laboratory?
Both scenarios are possible. Depending on the industry and process, we select the architecture: measurement. in-line. (in-process), at-line/lab. (in-line control during production) or portable (incoming quality control/IQC).
Is it possible to detect incidents „in real-time” in the water and wastewater industries?
Yes. In such applications, response speed is crucial, which is why implementations are designed to detect events in real-time (with a short measurement interval), rather than only after laboratory results are available.
What are the limitations of the method?
The most common limitations depend on the sample (e.g., fluorescence) and require proper selection of configuration and chemometrics. Therefore, we verify this in a feasibility study using your materials.
Can I implement this first at a single point and then scale up?
Yes — we often start with one critical point to confirm the business value and gather process data, then expand the system to additional stages or lines. This is a safe approach for implementation and cost control.
Will I receive a „readable result,” not just spectral data?
Yes. The result is presented in an operationally useful format (e.g., trend, alarm, PASS/FAIL, quality indicator), not as raw spectra. This allows personnel from technology, quality, and maintenance to all utilize the solution.
What information is needed to start a discussion about implementation?
A brief process description (medium, measurement point, business objective) and information on which parameters you currently control and at what frequency is sufficient. If we proceed to testing, we will define the minimum sample set for a feasibility study.
When will I receive information on whether this method makes sense for my process?
Initial conclusions emerge after process analysis and preliminary sample testing — at that point, we can determine feasibility, expected accuracy, and the recommended implementation architecture.
