Problems solved by Spectrally™ analyzers
Gekko Photonics for:
Nama Chemicals Company
We have developed a solution that helped European resin manufacturers save over $2.7 million annually. Now with potential implementation at Nama Chemicals Company Jubail Industrial City
Challenges in resin production
Low inspection accuracy
Traditional resin quality testing methods lack sufficient precision, leading to the rejection of product batches that actually meet acceptable quality standards.
Production delays
Long waiting times for laboratory results slow down production processes and increase the storage costs of semi-finished products.
Raw material losses
The inability to detect anomalies in real time results in unnecessary consumption of valuable raw materials and an increase in production waste.
Case study
For a resin manufacturer whose client had highly stringent product requirements, enabling our client to achieve stable product quality.
We implemented our inline Spectrally™ analyzer to monitor phenol and formaldehyde composition in real time. This provided the manufacturer with significantly tighter process control, resulting in optimized production parameters and reduced customer complaints by approximately 90%.
-
80% - Shorter production time per batch
Directly lower energy use per tonne of resin.
-
94% - Batches within internal specification
Higher and more stable first-pass yield (FPY).
-
90% - Fewer customer complaints
Significant reduction of claims and rework costs.
-
10% - Lower raw-material losses
Better utilization of phenol and formaldehyde through precise endpoint control
-
100% - Digital batch documentation
Complete, time-stamped analytical history for each batch.
Implementation pathway
Possible cooperation plan for Nama Chemicals Company
1. Feasibility workshop (3 hours)
Joint session with your technology, production and QA teams to identify measurement points and key KPIs at Jubail Industrial City.
2. Feasibility study
(4 weeks)
We analyze 3–5 representative batches or samples from your phenol-formaldehyde lines and:
- build preliminary calibration models,
- quantify potential savings (raw materials, energy, quality),
- prepare an ROI scenario specific to
Nama Chemicals Company.
3. Installation & scale-up (6-12 weeks)
- Installation of Spectrally™ inline on selected reactors,
- validation against your lab methods,
- operator training and integration with your control systems,
- option to replicate to other plants (same model, different location).
