What does the implementation of the Spectrally™ analyzer look like?
-
Identification of critical points and risks
We jointly analyze where the greatest losses, quality deviations, and downtime risks occur in the process. Based on this, we select measurement points in specific processes that will yield the fastest return on investment.
-
Feasibility study – testing process samples
We test samples from your process to confirm whether the measurement technology and algorithms meet the requirements. You will receive a clear report on the implementation potential.
-
Architecture recommendation, technology selection, and ROI report
We design the measurement configuration (in-line / at-line / mobile), measurement points, integrations, and results reporting method. We present an implementation plan and a return calculation based on process data.
-
Implementation and service support
We install the system, launch models, and train your team so that the results immediately support production and quality decisions. We provide service support, updates, and model development as the process evolves.
Industries
Application of Spectrally X1 LAB / LAB+
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.

Concentration of urea and ammonium nitrate in urea-ammonium nitrate fertilizer (UAN): inline composition control
The plant produces UAN 28, 30, or 32 to customer order on a single continuous mixing line. Hitting the specification window for the selected grade and reaching it quickly during grade changes determine the amount of transitional material and the nitrogen above declaration. We demonstrate how to control composition directly in the mixing line.
Monomer conversion and copolymer profile in acrylic dispersions and resins: inline measurement
In acrylic dispersions and resins, the copolymer composition and its homogeneity determine the glass transition temperature (Tg) and coating properties, while residual monomer is subject to customer regulations. We demonstrate how to monitor monomer conversion and copolymer composition directly in the reactor.
Verification of the F/U ratio and formaldehyde concentration in UFC concentrate upon receipt
The molar F/U ratio in UF resin is a fundamental parameter determining formaldehyde emissions from the finished board, and it directly results from the composition of the received UFC concentrate. We demonstrate how to verify the F/U ratio and formaldehyde content in UFC upon delivery – within 1–2 minutes and without reagents.
