Use cases

Three situations from a thiosulfate shift.

Each case starts with a common way the decision is taken and shows what changes when the value comes from the line.

01Situations from the shift

Where a reading in the line changes the decision.

Process hall with stainless columns (illustrative)Case 01

A concentration step on the reaction line

A new target is confirmed on a sample once the line has settled.

With the probe: the thiosulfate trend shows when the line has settled at the new target, and the tank receives liquor on target sooner.

Large storage tanks (illustrative)Case 02

A large tank before load-out

One sample describes one depth of the tank.

With the probe: homogeneity is read in the recirculation loop over a full turnover, and the lab check on the load starts from a mixed volume.

Process vessels in a liquid fertilizer plant (illustrative)Case 03

Peak season, full trucks

In a common routine each load waits for a lab result, and the queue grows with the season.

With the probe: each load carries its own time-stamped reading, and the lab checks samples on the schedule it sets.

02Reference case

What a documented deployment returned, at a resin plant.

These figures come from a phenol-formaldehyde resin producer that runs a Spectrally probe with the self-cleaning module on its reactor. The chemistry differs from a thiosulfate liquor; your feasibility study quantifies the gain on your own line.

Payback
~6.5mo

Return on the installation at a phenol-formaldehyde resin plant.

Savings per year
+$200k

On one line and one reactor at the same plant.

OEE
>66%

Up from about 58%, with availability, performance and quality all higher.

Data per batch
~750

Readings per batch, one every 30 s, against about four lab results.

03What your study returns

What the feasibility study hands back to Terre Haute.

Model
A model per value

Thiosulfate, sulfate and homogeneity, each checked against your lab methods.

Points
The first two points

Recommended locations on your line, with process connection and holder.

Savings case
Your numbers

The gain quantified as a documented scenario on your own data.

Plan
A timeline to the line

Installation, validation against your lab, operator training and integration.
